Beautiful and unique e/s...lovely pale purple with gold shimmer, very buildable and blendable. The e/s itself does not come off as overly shimmery---it's like there are glimmers of gold pearl...

Ahhhh, Strada. I had to have this as soon as I first laid eyes on it. Being a lover of all things purple, I couldn't pass this up. It's a pretty violet-purple with gold shimmer. To be fair, I...

I've got to mostly echo what others have said -- looks beautiful when I stick my finger in it but is really a huge pain to get it to go on without it just looking like a grayish purple smudge. I...

I agree that the actual product looks different in the pan. It looks really purple on me, which isn't a look I wanted. Not everyone looks good in brightish purple. From far away, it's easy that...

To echo the chorus voiced thus far, yes, this is the most cantankerous and most deceiving of shades. In the pan, it is a tremendously appealing, smoky-but-lively lavender suffused with flecks of...

Much like the Galapagos I didn't get it's true color : ( it's such an amazing purple with like a gold sheen. Well now I know better.

This has to be one of the WORST eyeshadows i have ever used...and that includes the low end makeup as well!!! because at least you know that the price may have been a reflection of the quality. But...

I was really disappointed with this color. It was so pretty when I swatched it at Sephora. When I played with it later on in the evening and actually applied it to my eyes I got a much different...

Strada is one very unique eyeshadow color and just like what others have mention, it does take some practice, skill and work to for this eyeshadow to show its true color. At first I was also very...

I absolutely LOVE this eyeshadow. It's one of my favorites, even though I don't use it all that much. My experience may be true for only fair-skinned girls, but here goes... First, I found that...

I am not sure if I should return this e/s,it looks so pretty in the pan and when you swatch it using your finger. It took me a long time to figure out how to wear this e/s without it turning grey...

This is a lilac e/s with gold shimmer, more irridescent than anything else. It does not really look the same on me as it does in the pan. This is nicely pigmented IMO. I like it, I do not have any...

Unfortunately, I lost this shadow on vacation. I had bought it to match a bridesmaid dress along with NARS Lido. Strada went really well with Lido. But because it didn't work as well by itself,...

The product just doesn't come out like in the pan. On my lids it comes out much darker, matte, and not pretty. Impossible to blend and the color only looks nice in the pan. Really regret buying...

This is a gold-flecked purple that really makes my brown eyes look bigger. It is the perfect color of brown eyed girls with NC35-40 skin and I just love it. The blending is a little bit of a...

Buyer Beware! I absolutely love NARS products but this did not work for me at all. And to top it off, I tried it on at the store: on my hand. It looked gorgeous - violet with loads and loads of...
