I love this eyeshadow, and also love the colors. It goes on so smoothly, and lasts all day. I am so happy that I can shop online since we do not have great products like this to buy in my area.
I purchased these in #9, #17, #18 and #23. Something about the texture of these formulas just makes them look and feel so luxurious. They go on so smoothly and blend like a dream. I did use a primer out of habit (Urban Decay primer potion), and had no issues with the color fading. I just used the sponge applicator they came with to apply (and I rarely ever use sponge applicators, but these deposited a nice amount of color) and then blended them out with a fluffy brush. Number 9 (tadzio) is a perfect everyday color. Very rich and wearable. I added a bit of 23 (corallo) on the center of the lid for a punch of color and it was gorgeous. Don't be scared off by some of the more intense colors (like 17 and 18 and 23). They can be applied sheer for a wash of color and are completely buildable if you want a pop of color on the lid or an intense look all over the eye or in the outer corner, etc.. These are pricey but I'm extremely pleased to say that, in this case, the luxury price tag coincides with a luxury, high quality product. Highly recommended!

Proseasy to blend, long-lasting, staying power, everyday glam
I am a make-up junkie. I started with MAC in college, then went on to the likes of Nars, Shiseido, Bobbi Brown, Dior, YSL, Clinique, Guerlain, Burberry.....trust me I have tried everything. After trying everything I am now a loyal YSL, Dior, and Giorgio Armani fan. These shadows are awesome, they do not crease, last all day, and do not require a primer. I drove over 100 miles to try these at the Annapolis mall (refuse to buy them from Saks counter) and it was well worth the haul. I got these in #23 and #10, I want more!! they also mix well with the giorgio armani intense silk shadows. I want more!!!! Worth the money. Pair well with YSL eye liner.....I used that for my look today and I am "killing 'em"
