Eye Shadow

Bobbi Brown eyeshadow is a product that I’ve used for years (before Sephora started carrying it I would order directly online). This eyeshadow has a matte finish that looks fantastic. The matte finish helps disguise any lines or creases on the eyelid. It also looks very pretty when used along with a shimmery-finished eyeshadow to give definition to the eye. This shadow is densely pigmented, is finely milled, glides on easily, is easy to blend and as long as I wear an eyeshadow primer it will not crease or fade at all. I have very oily skin, so if it stays on me all day without fading then that is really saying something about how great this product is. This eyeshadow is right up there with my top favorite eyeshadow brands (Urban Decay and Smashbox). It’s an excellent quality eyeshadow that comes in a good variety of colors. The white color is great for highlighting the inner corner of my eye. The container it is in has a clear top so I can easily identify the color of the shadow without having to open it up or look at the name of it first and the container also has a flip-top instead of a screw-on lid, which I think is very convenient. Overall, I would recommend this without a doubt to anyone interested in it.

I've been using these eye shadows for the past 10 years and I have ZERO complaints. Bobbi makes a fabulous array of colors that are appropriate for all ages, all occasions, and most skin types. I find that most of these shadows are best for more natural and muted looks, but some of the darker colors like Caviar certainly allow for dramatic and heavy looks as well. Almost all of her shadows have a sheer finish to them, but can be built up into an opaque color. The shadows last all day with very minimal creasing and fall out. The only creasing and fall out I've noticed are in the darkest and most saturated shades. Application is super smooth and they're great for layering with one another or with other products. They just blend so easily. I even use some of my darker shades as liners. These shadows are just so classy and wearable. You'll get great use out of each one. My only complaint is that Sephora doesn't sell enough colors! <span class="shop__a pd-reviews__expand-link pd-reviews__translate-span" data-hide="-1267439704169282976-full" data-show="-1267439704169282976-short" jsaction="pdui.tvc">« less</span>

Not reaching for this at all. The navy that I got didn't blend at all. It went on splotchy and uneven. The light blue was no better. It was not pigmented enough (and hey! who says light eyeshadow can't be pigmented?) and even so could've at least had more staying power.

I know Bobbi is known for her lipsticks, but I have to say that the Holy Grail of her line are the matte eyeshadows. This is my everyday, go-to, cannot be without item. Wear one or wear ten, they are fantastically buildable, blendable and wearable. They feel fabulous, last all day and the color range takes you from a sheer light day look to a smokey dark evening look. And it can be done with just three shadows: a pale base, a medium lid/crease shade and a deep liner shade that can be smoked out for night.

I purchased the color "Taupe" to go in my crease and I have been using it everyday since I got it. It is very pigmented, blends effortlessly and stays all day (I have oily lids so this is a major plus!) I'd definitely recommend. It's a higher price point but you get so much product and the quality is worth it in my opinion!
