Sephora + Pantone Light Storm Liquid Shadow Smoky Grape




Hello,

How was your Monday? Been a rough one for me. I could use a nap right now but before I take a little trip to Lalaland, let me get this review up first. I will be back later to comment.

If you're into duochrome and particularly duochrome eyeshadows then I think you might be interested in this cream eyeshadow.

Sephora has 3 shades available but I find that Smoky Grape had the strongest duochrome, shifting from lavender to teal.

Packaging
  • It comes in a small tube and doe foot applicator
  • .22 oz and 6.5 ml

Product
  • The consistency of the cream applies a bit sheer; however, the color payoff is buildable but up to a point. If you use to many layers, it can start to look cakey. I wouldn't do more than 3 layers. 
  • It gives you enough play time to blend yet sets within a few seconds, which helps with layering.
  • Smoky Grape has an irridescent/etheral look. Though the purple is the predominant color, you can certainly see the teal shimmers shine where the light hits it.
  • Once it sets, it wears strong, without creasing or fading till I take it off even without the use of a primer.

Final Thought

It's creamy and yields good color pay off when layered and blends very easily. Love the crease-proof and budge-proof formula and has a nice duochrome shift. Definitely a good pickup for duochrome fans.

Rating: 9/10

Price: $18.00
Availability: Sephora

    1. Yeah because if you layer too much when it dries it looks caked on. I need to do a look with this
