I tried this in “Legend”. It's a BEAUTIFUL shimmering copper color that borders on a rusty brown. Unfortunately, it broke- not sure why, it was in a magnetic palette with my MAC shadows and they...

OMG I love these shadows! But most of all I love being able to chose from a huge selection of colors and shades! Since you can chose your own colors for a pallet there are no "can't use" colors! I...

There are a lot of strong opinions on Makeup Geek eyeshadows in either direction, but I can understand why. In my personal experience, I have had only positive results using the 8 MUG shadows I...

I've read a ton of reviews on these & there seems to be very opposing opinions out there, so I figured I'd throw mine in.:o) I have been a make-up artist for almost half my life now, and many of...

I'm surprised to see such polar reviews on these eye shadows. I probably have about 15 shades (predominately mattes with a few shimmers/foiled ones) and I really enjoy this formula. I find these so...

Great quality, good price. Definitely rivals MAC, and all of the other high-end shadows. All shadows come in the professional- pot styles, meaning u would need to have a zpallet or MAC eyeshadow...

I don’t get all the hype around Makeup Geek eyeshadows. When swatched I don’t find them very pigmented. And when placed on the eyes they are nothing special. I find Lorac shadows to be more...

Last year about this time I had one eye shadow and I would only wear on special occasions. My daily look was a black or brown (sometimes gray) eyeliner. For some reason I decided to go ape on eye...

All around great eyeshadows, would highly recommend to makeup artists. They get expensive when you factor in buying a z palette and filling it, but keep in mind that these are full size eyeshadows...

They're so good. I can only speak on the mattes because that's all I've tried, but they're amazing. They literally blend for you, and they're very pigmented. I've seen that some people have said...
