Natasha Denona Eyeshadow ($29.00 for 0.08 oz.) comes in 66 shades with four distinct finishes (Matte, Duo-Chrome, Metallic, and Sparkling). According to the brand, the eyeshadow formula is supposed to have “full, rich and intense color that won’t fade out, be “long-lasting,” and smooth. The majority of the shimmery shades were very pigmented with a soft consistency that was something just right and other times a little prone to crumbling/loosening in the pan, while the mattes were smooth but quite powdery, which resulted it color that didn’t adhere to bare skin as readily. The texture of most shades is soft, blendable, and most of the shimmery shades I’ve tested applied well to bare skin. The wear was fairly consistent, but there was some variance from shade to shade (which didn’t seem related to finish). The wear has ranged from five to eight hours, depending on the shade. Primer helps with longevity, adding two to three hours to the shade’s no-primer wear time, but they seem like shorter-wearing eyeshadows compared to most powder formulas I’ve tried.

Check out my first review for more depth about the formula as well as a pricing breakdown for singles compared to palettes.

Industrial (45M) is a dark, taupe brown with subtle, warm undertones and a sparkling, metallic finish. It had rich color payoff with a soft, smooth, and dense consistency that blended well without being too loose or prone to fall out when applied.

Glam Green (18M) is a muted, light-medium green-ish gray with cool undertones and a metallic sheen.

Cloudy Blue (17M) is a muted, medium-dark blue with a golden shift and metallic finish. It had good pigmentation with a slightly loose texture in the pan, where the powder dislodged from the pan easily. It is best applied by pressing the color into the lid and lightly blending along the edges. The eyeshadow wore well for seven hours on me. Clionadh Fog (P, $5.25) is warmer (95% similar).

Pinija (85P) is a deep, reddish-brown with warm undertones and a green shift paired with a frosted sheen. It was richly pigmented with a soft, smooth, and blendable consistency that was slightly dense but not too firm or too loose in the pan. I noticed it was beginning to crease after seven and a half hours of wear. MAC When in Rio (LE, $17.00) is less shimmery, darker (90% similar).

Tropic (08V) is a dark green-leaning teal with fine gold pearl. It darkened quite a bit when applied to the skin (several shades compared to how it appeared in the pan!). It had good color payoff but was harder to blend out, especially around the edges, as it had a thinner consistency that tended to adhere strongly wherever it first landed. This shade showed signs of fading after eight hours. Maybelline Never Fade Jade (P, $6.99) is less shimmery, lighter, brighter (90% similar).
