We’re almost done — here’s a summary of how well (or poorly!) Metallic shades rated in the Make Up For Ever Artist Color Shadow ($17.00 for 0.08 oz.) formula.

The new Metallic formula was the most consistent between old and new for overall feel, performance, and color. There were, of course, a few shades that seemed lighter/darker, cooler/warmer compared to the previous versions, and all those notes will be made within the respective shade’s review. I think the new Metallic finish has a more flattering look on the lid, as the consistency wasn’t quite as thick, which should make it apply and appear smoother on the lid for more people.

There were several shades that seemed slightly deeper or less reflective, while others were as reflective as past versions. The majority of the shades of this finish were very pigmented with a moderately dense, lightly creamy texture that blended out well on the lid and wore between nine and ten hours on me.
