“A cream texture that becomes one with the eyelid and dresses up the eyes in vibrant, easy-to-blend color. A palette of shades offering a satiny, luminous and long-wearing result. The eyeshadow comes with a rounded brush applicator with very soft synthetic bristles, perfect for applying and blending color over the entire eyelid. A blend of oils adds softness to the texture for the easy, adjustable and melt-away application. A high concentration of ultra-pure pigments reveals intense and sophisticated shades. A formula rich in long-wearing ingredients for a dense and even result that lasts all day. Ophthalmologist tested, suitable for contact lens wearers.” from beauty boutique Canada.

This eyeshadow is packaged in a small clear glass jar with black heavy plastic lid with Chanel logo. The little eye shadow jar does look very cute. The shade of this eyeshadow is peachy/pinky beige with a metallic sheen. The formula is very buildable. With one swipe, it gives a semi opaque coverage and with two or three swipes it gives full coverage. I do prefer one swipe over my lids and I get that semi-opaque sheen which looks natural as well as very pretty on the eyes.

The formula is very soft and blendable. I did not notice any creasing on my eye sockets and this stayed on really well for over 11 hours. It may have stayed longer but I normally remove my makeup in few hours after I am back from work. This eye shadow can be used either with an eye shadow brush or with a finger tip, I use it both ways and it works well.

I am really in love with the formula and the sheen it provides, I am definitely going to look into more shades in this formula. This retails for CAD $40 excluding taxes.
