Cressida

NARS Cressida Dual Intensity Eyeshadow ($29.00 for 0.05 oz.) is described as a "shimmering midnight blue." It's a bright, medium-dark blue with a frosted finish. It is more muted and semi-opaque when applied dry, and it wore for seven and a half hours on me. When I applied it damp, the color was fully opaque and brighter, while longevity came in at eight and a half hours. The texture was a little drier and harder to blend out dry, and it was somewhat easier when applied damp, but it tended to dry unevenly. MAC Blue Envy (LE, $17.00) is lighter (95% similar).
