Early Bird

Makeup Geek Early Bird Eyeshadow ($6.00 for 0.064 oz.) is a bright, medium orange with warm undertones and a matte finish. It had great pigmentation, but the texture was powdery, despite being soft to the touch. It blended well on the skin, but it had a tendency to sheer out and look somewhat faded on bare skin, so this is another shade that I would only use with a primer. It lasted for seven hours before fading noticeably. NABLA Cosmetics Honey (PiP, $8.00) is lighter, cooler (95% similar). Anastasia D1 (Norvina Vol. 3) (LE, ) is lighter, cooler (95% similar).
