I bought this shadow for about $5 or $6 at London Drugs on sale, and I was interested in it mostly for the pigment of the gold. When I bought it, I was so excited to try out the shades both alone...

To be honest, I bought this solely for the purple, and it was a disappointment. The purple side of this duo doesn't work for me at all. On the other hand, the gold is really pigmented and goes on...

I pulled this out again to play with and fell in love with it. I use the golden side on the inner corner to mid lid, then do use the purple side to put down a bit of colour. I use MAC Stars 'n...

The gold is a lovely color and highly pigmented. The purple is a light wash of matte color. Which I know a lot of people are disappointed with, but I feel it goes well with the gold. It makes it...

I tried the purple shade in many different ways and found that a good way to get more color payoff is to wear it over a cream eyeshadow... I applied Estee Lauder's Double Wear Cream Shadow in Sea...

Purple is a of a terrible quality - barely any payoff even with UDPP and coverup underneath. Gold is VERY pigmented but seems to float around on the face after applied to the eyes - even with...

The gold colour is pretty good and pigmented, but the purple is absolute crap. I was sad because the purple was the reason I bought it! It goes on so sheer and uneven. I'd pass on this duo,...

CONS: >I was disappointed in the pigmentation of the matte purple shade. While it is more pigmented than the shadows in L'Oreal's regular line, it is no where near as pigmented compared to...

I LOVE this. I wear it almost every day. The best part is if I decide to go out after school or work I don't have to start over. I just add a little more of the purple to smoke it up and out I go!...

The color payoff with this product is pretty weak. You really have to pack on layers and layers of it and it rubs off very very easily.

Like others have said, if you're craving the intensity of MAC eyeshadows, but don't exactly have MAC e/s $$$, try this line. I'm an avid user of MAC pigments but they can get a little messy at...

I purchased this a couple of months ago, and I am so glad I did. The purple is not as pigmented as to be expected; however, it is buildable. In my opinion it is a close dupe for the purple and...
