    Holy Grail - sadly no longer being produced. This eyeshadow has been my go to for at least 15 years. I purchase all sorts of other shadows but rarely use them because this shadow does it all for...

    I picked this up at the local family dollar, I'm normally really skeptical about buying makeup from cheap outlets but they had stocked some milani items recently, and I am a huge fan of their...

    I like this eyeshadow as it is nicely pigmented. On a scale of 1-10 for pigmentation, I'd say 8. The color itself is easy to create smokey eye looks which is what I use it for. However I don't...

    This is so gorgeous, a slightly plum-tinged brown with golden shimmer. Its just beautiful as a lid/crease color. It’s soft and quite pigmented. I find it actually goes on too dark on its own, so...

    So most of Milani shadows have poor color pay off and crappy textures. This one is actually really nice. It has a velvety texture, goes on very dark, almost too dark. It's like a dark plummy...

    A perfect shade that I have to stop myself from wearing everyday. Staying power is good when used with a base and it's such a lovely shade. I can't fault it.

    So sad I cant find these anywhere anymore. A really great everyday brown that really is similar to a MAC neutral in terms of color, texture and staying power- I don't usually compare high-end to...

    Perfect bronzey brown color. Excellent pigmentation which can be applied dry or wet. Combines with most colors I have used and is economically feasible.. lol, meaning it is cheap. This ES would...

    I adore Milani singles! Java Bean is very dramatic on my coloring but pretty--this deep shimmery bronze brings out the green and gold "hazel" tones in my otherwise brown eyes. I love using it for...

    This was a surprise for sure! I bought this shadow because I wanted to try the Milani brand. I thought it was going to be run-of-the-mill DS stuff (cheap, instant gratification kind of stuff), but...

    I think this is a great color for everyday wear. You can easily create a night time smokey eye though as well. It's really lovely and flattering. The texture of the shadow is great too. It blends...
