Denim Smokey

Anastasia Denim Smokey Eyeshadow ($12.00 for 0.06 oz.) is a medium-dark gray with cooler undertones and a pearly shimmer-sheen finish. It had good color payoff, though the texture was dusty--the shimmer seemed to separate from the darker colored base to a small degree. It blended out well and lasted for eight hours.
