I am very not impressed by these shadows at all. Maybe because of all the hype everywhere and the great reviews. But these are very powdery , hard to blend and look kinda patchy on my eyes. They...

I don't understand how people are saying they aren't pigmented or long lasting? I put cream eyeshadow underneath for primer trip to London 14 hours later still looking great! Great value for money

I've been really pleased with the shades I've purchased. Barcelona beach and beaches and cream are my favorites. I can't quite figure out what to to with Preppy. No quality complaints.

Makeup Geek eyeshadows (both the regular and the foiled) are among my most used eyeshadows as they are very smooth and blendable and the shade range is very good. I would compare them to MAC...

These are pretty but there aren't very many shades and the fact that the shades arent very unique makes the price tag not worth it. Okay--$6 per eyeshadow, that's almost $20 for just 3 tiny...
