Doesn't Pop

I really wanted to like this, but the color barely shows up on my lashes. I have to apply several coats to get the purple to stand out at all. Maybe those with lighter lashes would get a better result.

Pretty Rad!

I got the Tough as Taupe color, and Silver Strike from the Metal line. I have to say that these did live up to the hype. They're nicely pigmented and stay in place. The metallic silver can be patted over a matte color to add shimmery dimension, or applied on its own. I like the versatility there, and the fact that these can be used as shadows, liners or bases...similar to MAC paint pots. I'll be buying more colors soon.

Good, not Great

The main reason I like this brand is because they have some really nice flavors... As far as treating chapped lips goes, they are just average. Not going to cut it during the harsh winter months - unless you're a fan of constant reapplying.

Okay

The sake shadow is the nicest of the four in terms of how pigmented it is. The pink is also nice, though neither color is particularly unique. The matte indigo color applies very lightly and doesn't really build up - disappointing. The convertible color I found to be a bit tacky or sticky feeling when used as a cheek color, though the hue is very pretty. To avoid fallout from the sparkly "peace sign" black, use a primer first. I actually use this color to set my eyeliner and it works best that way in my experience since it's not super pigmented as a stand alone shadow.

Glows

The product is a set of face/ body paints, not an eye shadow palette as the title here suggests. Most UV products are not safe to put directly around the eyes. That said, the colors can be somewhat sheer (purple especially), but they are still pretty pigmented. They glow marvelously under a black light. There's a bit of a learning curve with these paints in finding the perfect water ratio to use, but they are worth the effort :)

Meh

The applicator on this totally sucks, a shame because the liner itself seems to have good staying power... but what good is that really when the application is streaky? I strongly recommend Wet N' Wild's gel eyeliner over this. Pass this one up.

Nice

I was looking for a matte shade and ended up with a slightly shimmery one, but I ended up loving it. Enchantress is a cool toned slightly purplish pink. Hydrating, smooth, even color, not streaky. Staying power is pretty nice, color does fade down to a softer almost stained look over time. I usually opt for tinted balms, but I am glad I bought this for when I want a bolder lip look.

Awesome

Amazing quality for the price! Great color payoff, and stays put almost too well. One of the best drugstore brand eye liners I have ever used - if not the best. I use a Mehron Stageline brush to apply this liner because the angle brush that it comes with isn't too great. I do wish this product came in more colors.
