I applied the purple with a brush and the pigmentation was bold, glided on easily and looked sharp. The product didn't crease like some cream products and lasted all day (8 hours plus), I wouldn't say it lasted anywhere near the 24hr claims but 8 hours is enough for me. Stunning colours.

Tips: Use as a base or on its own for a bold colour statement. Use a primer to increase wear.
You can forgive a lot of mistakes in cosmetics.... Im not sure a frosted gold is one of those things but hey. Of course, I brought these after every man and his dog were raving about them on the interwebs. I forked out for two colours; barely branded and tough as taupe. Ill begin with the positive. Tough as Taupe is B.E.A.Utiful. Like, gorg.
I wear it washed out on the lid with some smokey liner and it is the perfect mix of subtle but still strong. I live for it.
Barely branded however....eh.... Its just...so FROSTY. Not just shimmery, not just glowing. But Frosted. And quite yellow. I wanted to love it but it was not meant to be. I have super oily lids so this can forget any claims of being a primer or base or whatever. It creases on me but then everything does. I wear these over Urban Decay Primer potion and will usually set them with a shadow as well (Omega or Satin Taupe from MAC are recommended :))
Hit and miss but I still think they are great value and come in some great colours
After hearing and seeing all these amazing things about this product I was as giddy as a teenage girl at a one direction concert when I finally purchased one! I got mine in painted purple because I just LOVE a vibrant purple and it didn't disappoint it really is purple. I love the fact that you control the intensity, if you want it light don't apply much, if you want a vibrant look go liberal!
The colour did last and last BUT I found that getting an even application of it was difficult it would end up looking patchy, HOWEVER I am still looking forward to getting more colours and am definitely recommending it to my mum.
Tips: Apply a shadow of a similar colour over the top to 'hide' any patchiness
I love these products for either just a quick simple wash of colour over the eyes that will stay all day, I prefer the more natural colours but think it's great to see such out there colours provided
Tips: I use either my finger or brush to apply these, I find with my finger I get a sheer wash or colour but with my brush I can get it quite opaque
I love the vibrant colour i get when i use these most of the time. But I have found the white one tends to separate and not go on smooth unless its in a very thin layer applied with my finger. other than that I love the product and will continue to use it
I have this product in barely branded, and I typically use mine for a fast and easy look. I just dip my fingers in the pot and rub over my eyelids, and blend it out. Sometimes I will add more, for a bit more colour. Barely branded is a frosty champagne colour and I find is good for a lil sparkle and near nude colour.
Tips: Easiest applied with fingertips.
My fave eyeshadows at the moment....these are wee gems! I smooth them on my whole lids, building up colour for the contour, then layer on other shadows to highlight. I have all neutral shades, loving Barely branded and Bad to the bronze! But I'm also tempted by the more daring and vibrant purple and turquoise shades....great packaging too :-)
Tips: You can't just buy one, they are addictive!
I own nine of these bad boys! (Pomegranate punk, electric blue, tough as taupe, barely branded, bad to the bronze, bold gold, inked in pink, too cool and painted purple. I always reach for these as a base or on their own. Really great pigment and long lasting. i apply them with a small flat brush as i have long nails - a little bit goes a png way. I really enjoy using these as they go with everything and are great if you are running late.
Tips: Once applied, add a slightly darker colour in your crease to really make them pop!!!
This product is amazing! I use the colour tattoo in No.25 Bad to the Bronze and it doesn't crease on me and last all day. They're perfect by them selves or with a powdered shadow over top. So far mine hasn't dried out and I've had it for nearly a year, I use it almost every day and it's lasted me ages!
Tips: Sheer it out or pack it on- it looks amazing either way.
I really like this product, it is great as a base, makes eye shadow last so much longer which is always a great thing. I have mine in Barely Branded which is a great colour for making eye shadows over top stay true to their colour and more pigmented. I also love to use this colour in my inner corner to make my eyes look more open and awake. This product is great to put on in a hurry as it makes you look more put together even though all you've done is just slapped it on hence the title 'lazy girls dream'.
