I picked up Trinket eyeshadow, which is sort of a soft matte gray with some sparkle, because I love gray eyeshadow and nice light grays are hard to find - there are a million charcoal grays, but a nice soft cloud gray? Not easy to find. Sadly, I'm somewhat disappointed, and doubt I'll purchase again. It looks lovely in the pan, and on the lid at first (I used UDPP as a base), but the sparkles dont show up very well at all, and the color itself seems to sort of fade off - I could see my lid color through it, even though I tried to pack it on.. it was really strange. That's not the worst part though - my eye watered a little and a bit of the wetness got on my lid - and the shadow color immediately got twice as dark! I had to try to wipe it off with a makeup wipe and reapply, and of course it never looked quite the same. I experimented a bit, and happened again - any wetness turns Trinket into a really dark gray, which.... really sucks. One eye was fine, but the other eye, because it watered just a little, ended up with a few dark gray bits on the lid, where the shadow had gotten wet. I only have a couple other shadows that do this, and I never reach for them. I mean, they're your EYES - there's a possibility they're going to water a little. How can I wear an eyeshadow that's going to turn color the minute it gets damp?
It's a shame, cos the color itself is nice, it's a color I dont have anything close to a dupe of, but the formula needs work :/
