Pretty much the same story with me. Beautiful colour in the pan, but it sucks. So dry, and no matter how much I load my brush with it, it won't go on. I don't quite have the heart to toss it, though.

For anyone who complained about Mythology, French Cuff or even Pink Venus payoff quality, try using LA Splash Base/Sealer under them. The difference is amazing!
French Cuff on the lid
Heatherette Trio, with the infamous Pink Venus. The glitter didn't show up in the pic, though.
Mythology on the lid.
LA Splash used for a base in these 3 looks. Wish I had found this stuff sooner.

I love Patina! I wear it in the crease with Mac vanilla pigment or shroom on the lid. I'm NC 20 or 25 though. It was one of my first shadows to hit pan on.Patina :l it doesn't even show up on my lids
Patina is one of my favourite eyeshadows! That absolutely sucks that it doesn't work for youPatina :l it doesn't even show up on my lids
I hated this too. I also have Post Haste which is similar in color but a much better texture/color payoff.

yes yes yes! What a fail of an eye shadow!newly minted. you put it on, try blending... disappears. if you put it on a sticky base, it doesn't budge. and i have no fucking idea what to pair it with... it just sits in my m/u drawer. i wish i didn't buy it

Mystical Mist. It's such a gorgeous colour that I bought two of them, only to discover the first time I tried it that I am horribly allergic to it. I spent nearly two weeks with my eyes and the skin around them horribly swollen and the skin dried out and cracking It took a month before I'd recovered completely.

As much as I don't want to admit it, Contrast. It's such a pretty midnight blue in the pan... But it just looks almost black on me. too harsh for a daily look. I keep it hoping I'll find some use for it or I'll put it on and it's magically much prettier. But never is. Ugh.

Wah double post. My bad!
How are you applying it and what kind of brush(es) are you using? The problem sounds like one I had with NARS Night Porter - the more you rub or blend it in, the more black or muddy the color appears.As much as I don't want to admit it, Contrast.

MAC 239 (I think) patting it on, various RT brushes swiping, every method I can think of. No matter what I do it just looks dark and disappointing

For me, it would have to be Goldenrod. I wanted a yellow to lightly dust over darker browns to wake them up. Total fail . . .looks like a yellow cab. Anyone have some good ideas for Goldenrod?

I hate Motif and Club. Also not a fan of Swiss Chocolate or Bisque. Motif was just disgusting, not pigmented whatsoever and barely showed up on my skin. I returned that one. I loved the color of Club, but after a few hours it completely disappeared from my lid, you couldn't tell I had even put it on at all. Swiss Chocolate and Bisque are just not pigmented enough for my liking (Bisque kind of blends in with my skintone).
