Beautiful to layer or wear alone

Proseasy to blend, smudgable, long-lasting, silky shimmery
These shadows are very lightweight, shimmery & sexy. But be advised that they are not like a regular eyeshadow w/lots of color - they are almost transparent w/a wash of light color & sparkle. For evening, I use the Black Pearl over my entire lid up to my brow bone - then use my finger to lightly smudge Bobbi's Gel Eyeliner, using it as a darker shadow (I use either Chocolate Shimmer or Violet) lightly over my lid w/my finger, then on my brow-bone. The gel eyeliner is so spreadable, it's easy to use as a shadow. When used together, the Metallics give a gorgeous layer of shimmery brightness & sparkle to a darker color shadow that if used alone might look a little "flat."
On their own, some of the colors are fine to wear during daytime. Depends on the color. The Black Pearl or Golds are probably fine - but wearing the sparkly blue or purple in the middle of the day looks goofy especially if you work in a professional environment as I do.

Proseasy to blend, long-lasting
This is not represented well on the website. It is glitter that would be fine over a darker color, but it has no other shade of color. I was looking for a light brown.
