Natasha Denona Guava Creamy Matte Eye Shadow

Guava

Guava is a medium, peachy orange with warm undertones and a matte finish. The eyeshadow had opaque pigmentation that applied evenly and smoothly to my lid. It had a silky, finely-milled texture that was easy to blend out and work with, though it was a bit powdeyr in the pan when I used fluffier brushes with it. This shade lasted for eight hours on me before I noticed slight fading.

Formula Overview

-

The majority of the brand's eyeshadows are quite pigmented, blendable, and long-wearing. The eyeshadows have improved over time, particularly with respect to longevity (without a primer). The original formula often creased on me within seven to eight hours, whereas the more current formula wears eight to nine hours with fading (instead of full-on creasing). The more matte finishes tend to be a bit more velvety, substantial, and less dry/powdery compared to prior iterations.

The metallic finish is often the creamiest, slightly denser in feel, but has excellent pigmentation, adhesion, and blendability. The sparkling shades can have some fallout, depending on how they're applied and how sparkly they are, so they sometimes work better with fingertips or a dampened brush; they can also run sheerer compared to other finishes.

Cream-Powders are the more unique formulation and tend to have firmer, almost stiff, consistencies and more semi-opaque, watercolor-esque coverage. They are longer-wearing, but they can take a few uses to learn how to use. This formula has also improved compared to when it first debuted--it is a bit more yielding now.

Natasha Denona Apollo Metallic Eye Shadow

Apollo

Apollo is a deep, reddish copper with warm undertones and a frosted sheen. It had good color payoff, but the texture was fairly dry and stiff in the pan, which made me have to dig my brush into it a bit to get product to translate onto my brush. I also felt like it took more effort to apply it evenly to my lid and to blend it out. The color stayed on well for eight hours before fading noticeably.

Natasha Denona Dirty Mars Creamy Matte Eye Shadow

Dirty Mars

Dirty Mars is a medium-dark brown with warm, yellowish undertones and a matte finish. The texture was smooth and velvety with just a touch of powderiness in the pan. It had rich color coverage that applied well to bare skin and blended out easily. It wore well for eight and a half hours on me.

Natasha Denona Sun Beam Metallic Eye Shadow

Sun Beam

Sun Beam is a rich, medium-dark copper with warm, orange undertones and a golden-orange sheen. It had excellent pigmentation that applied better to the lid than I expected, as the texture was slightly powdery and more loosely-pressed in the pan, which I felt made it a messier product to work with. I had the greatest success using this shade with smaller, flat, firm brushes (dampened made it a cinch to work with) as those helped to minimize fallout. The eyeshadow blended out nicely on the lid and stayed on for eight and a half hours on me.

Natasha Denona Halo Metallic Eye Shadow

Halo

Halo is a light gold with warm, yellow undertones and a sparkling, metallic finish. The color payoff was semi-opaque and buildable, but it was the type of shade that really shined (ha, ha) when applied with a dampened brush or over a primer. It had a soft, slightly looser consistency, so there was some fallout during application (if used without primer or with a dampened brush). The eyeshadow wore well for eight hours with slight fallout.
