hey!

if you have both frost and veluxe pearl eyeshadows...i find that veluxe pearls goes on and blends a little bit more smoother.

Frosts and VPs are pretty much as frosty but frosts are more opaque, some VPs can be quite sheer [unless you pack them on], I think frosts also have a little better staying power [but I personally like VPs better

].

Frosts would have a better staying power and vibrancy than VPs.

There is a texture breakdown in the FAQ: MAC FAQ: Eye shadow texture breakdown

i too like frosts & VPs best. velvet's are wayy too hard to work with & blend IMO.

Frost and Veluxe are the best. I think all in all VP have more staying power and blend smoother. Velvets are great also. Most of my favorite shadows fall in these two categories (i.e. Swish, Gorgeous Gold, Amberlights, Plum, Cranberry, Humid, Shimmermoss, etc)
