The formula is supposed to have "extreme pigmentation" and "effortless blendability" ... "that [will] last all day." There are two primary finishes: mattes and metallics, and the latter can also be used wet.
The matte finish has semi-opaque to opaque color coverage with moderate powderiness; it's a formula that is best used with a lighter hand. There was light fallout with some shades, though not at all, and they were blendable for the most part. Even with a light hand, there was still a bit of powderiness present--the brand did warn about using less with their formula--in the pan.

There were a few darker shades that had a tendency to sheer out when applied or did not apply as evenly, especially when layered over a lighter shade but most of the mid-tone and lighter shades were easy to apply and blend out. As a result, I found myself having better results by going dark to light rather than light to dark (which is more in line with how I typically work).
The metallic finish ranged from creamier, denser, and a bit thicker to softer, dense but still a little powdery (usually the lighter, more white-based shades). They were mostly opaque to fully opaque in a single layer, so they didn't need to be applied with a wet brush to achieve coverage or adhesion. I found that some of the more powdery, shimmery shades were more flattering on the lid when used with a fingertip or a dampened brush, though.
The matte eyeshadows tended to wear around eight hours on me before fading, while the shimmer shades lasted eight to eight and a half hours on me.

Designed for smooth application, amazing pigmentation and easy blendability, our signature eyeshadow formula is as impressive as it is dependable. No creasing, no fading. Wear your most beautiful creations all day and never worry about touch ups. Matts - If you are using an eyeshadow base, we recommend you set it first. Especially before applying deeper shades, give them a quick swatch to familiarize yourself with the pigmentation. Our highly pigmented shadows don't have to be swirled. Dipping your brush once will pick up plenty of pigment. Use a blending or shader brush for best results. Metallics - Apply with a dense brush or your finger. Our metallic shadows perform great when used dry, but spraying your brush with setting spray can further enhance the shine. Avoid getting moisture into your eyeshadow pan.
