Editor's Review

MAC How Royal Eyeshadow ($16.00 for 0.05 oz.) is described as a "pearly cerulean blue [with a Veluxe Pearl finish]." It's a bright, medium blue with subtle, cool undertones and a pearly sheen. It had good pigmentation paired with a softer consistency that wasn't too firm or too dense, but I did notice it had a tendency to fade when applied to bare skin. Over primer, it looked better and applied more evenly. On me, it wore well for eight hours (no primer). KVD Beauty Paranoid (DC, $21.00) is less shimmery, darker (90% similar). Fenty Beauty Glacier Gang (LE, )(90% similar). NARS Showgirl (P, $19.00) is more shimmery (90% similar). Shiseido Esmaralda (BL 620) (P, $25.00) is more muted (90% similar). Sephora Rio (LE, ) is lighter (90% similar). Make Up For Ever S214 Ultramarine Blue (DC, $21.00) is less shimmery, darker (90% similar). Disney by Sephora Blue Lagoon (LE, ) is more muted, warmer (85% similar). Sugarpill Afterparty (P, $13.00) is darker (85% similar). Urban Decay Clash (DC, $20.00) is lighter (85% similar). MAC Blue Calm (DC, $17.00) is darker (85% similar). See comparison swatches / view dupes side-by-side.

Claims / Ingredients

These saturated shadows in neutral and metallic shades and multiple finishes stay on all day long with non-creasing, eight-hour wear. The result: potent colour payoff that applies evenly, blends well and can be used wet or dry.
