Eyeshadow palettes continued to be released in full force throughout 2019, but there were some higher-end single eyeshadows that caught my eye over the year. It was nice to see Pat McGrath singles launch earlier this year with some standout shades like Lapis Luxury and Divine Mink become available. I’ve long been a fan of the more loose/pressed hybrid powder eyeshadow, so I enjoyed Tarte Chrome Paint Shadow Pots, Ciate Marbled Metals, and Touch in Sol Metallist Eyeshadows. MAC Vio-lit might be one of the most gorgeous purple eyeshadows ever released.

With over 2,000 powder eyeshadows (loose and pressed) tested and reviewed (that includes shades found only in palettes) in 2019, there’s a lot to go through! In the under $10 category, the two heavy players are ColourPop and Sydney Grace, both of which have fairly consistent, better-performing formulas and in volume. Sydney Grace in particular as I did the majority of my reviews for the brand in 2019 (only 28 in 2018). These include eyeshadow singles only, whether permanent or limited edition, but they had to be available individually to count toward this list!

It will also be available at Sephora (unsure of exact date) per the brand’s replies on Instagram. Those who have more extensive collections featuring the brand’s palette may feel like this is too similar to past releases, though they did not seem to be exact repeats but are certainly similar to some shades released previously. All six shades performed well; they were pigmented, blendable, and long-wearing and were comparable to past releases.

Eternal OpulenceEternal Opulence is a soft peach with warm undertones and a metallic sheen. It had excellent color coverage in a single layer with a smooth, finely-milled texture that was more firmly pressed into the pan but was not stiff or difficult to pick up with a brush. It wore well for nine and a half hours before fading slightly. Top Dupes
Formula Overview$25.00/0.04 oz. - $625.00 Per Ounce Pat McGrath's eyeshadows are, generally, supposed to be "super-saturated" with "creamy, soft textures" and "extreme blendability and adherence without creasing." A lot of how well they perform (and to some degree, how they are supposed to be applied and marketed) depends on the type of shades, but by and large, the eyeshadows perform very much as they are described. The brand released single eyeshadows in March 2019, and the shades have been consistent in quality, look, and feel. They are not removable, unfortunately, so one would have to depot like any other single eyeshadow--I tried using tweezers and lifting on several shades to no avail. The lids are held closed by a weak magnet, so I'm not sure they're as secure as most single eyeshadow compacts in my stash--I wish it really locked in, but there's definitely a magnet that pulls the lid down if it's within 2mm of the base. The mattes are velvety, blendable, and dense without being thick or too heavy, and they have semi-opaque to opaque pigmentation where a little can go a long way with some of the deeper and richer hues. The satin and pearl finishes are smooth, lightly creamy, and firmer but not dense or thick with good pigmentation, blendability, and easy application. The more metallic finishes tend to be softer, creamy, and smooth with a bit more denseness and no powderiness. The sparkly/glittery shades are often designed to be applied wet for richer coverage or intensity, which has largely been my experience. Most of the shades last between eight and nine hours.

TranquilityTranquility is a soft, orange-brown with warm undertones and a matte finish. The eyeshadow had opaque pigmentation that adhered evenly to bare skin and blended out easily without losing its intensity. The consistency was soft, lightly dusty in the pan, but it didn’t give me trouble with fallout nor did it sheer out too readily. It lasted well for nine hours before I noticed signs of fading.

Formula Overview$25.00/0.04 oz. - $625.00 Per Ounce Pat McGrath's eyeshadows are, generally, supposed to be "super-saturated" with "creamy, soft textures" and "extreme blendability and adherence without creasing." A lot of how well they perform (and to some degree, how they are supposed to be applied and marketed) depends on the type of shades, but by and large, the eyeshadows perform very much as they are described.

Lotus LuxeLotus Luxe is a brighter, medium red with subtle, warm undertones in its base and cooler pink and warm gold sparkle throughout. The texture was slightly denser and more firmly-pressed into the pan, though after two uses, it seemed slightly softer and more yielding but never seemed difficult to work with (I only sensed that firmness by touch). It had opaque color coverage that applied well to bare skin with a smooth, even lay down of product. It stayed on nicely for nine and a half hours with slight fallout over time. Top Dupes

ProsperityProsperity is a deep, red-brown with subtle, warm undertones and a matte finish. It was intensely pigmented with a soft, lightly powdery texture that was finely-milled and velvety. I didn’t experience fallout during application, but I would recommend tapping off excess and using a lighter hand for those more cautious of over-application as a little went a long way with this shade. The eyeshadow blended out well along the edges and wore well for nine hours before fading a bit. Top Dupes

Moon PhaseMoon Phase is a deep, rosy copper with subtle, warm undertones and a metallic finish. It had an incredibly creamy feel to it that was soft, more yielding but wasn’t prone to fallout; it was one of those textures where it was easy to pick up more product than necessary and could really be pulled and pulled for pigment in a single swipe. I’d recommend using less than you think you need to get to know this shade. It applied well to bare skin and lasted well for nine and a half hours before creasing faintly on me. Top Dupes

Gold FortuneGold Fortune is a rich, medium-dark gold with warmer, yellow undertones and a metallic sheen. The consistency was soft, smooth to the touch with a light creaminess that picked up easily with a brush and deposited evenly to bare skin. It had rich color payoff that stayed on nicely for 10 hours before fading a touch. Top Dupes

It’s a short ‘n’ sweet, cohesive palette of more muted, slightly yellower-toned neutrals than really warm, red/orange-toned neutrals, though I wouldn’t classify it as cool-toned. Seed is the closest to cool-toned, but Golden Flesh and Faye are hard to read as anything but warm-toned to my eye. The eyeshadows performed well with excellent pigmentation, blendability, and longevity.

Golden Flesh (68M)Golden Flesh (68M) is a medium, coppery brown with warm undertones and a bright, metallic finish. It was intensely pigmented with a smooth, lightly creamy consistency that adhered evenly to bare skin and blended out well along the edges. I felt like it was a bit deeper and richer in color than the last version I tested of it (in another five-pan palette). It lasted well for nine hours before fading faintly. Top Dupes
Formula Overview$29.00/0.08 oz. - $362.50 Per Ounce The majority of the brand's eyeshadows are quite pigmented, blendable, and long-wearing. The eyeshadows have improved over time, particularly with respect to longevity (without a primer). The original formula often creased on me within seven to eight hours, whereas the more current formula wears eight to nine hours with fading (instead of full-on creasing). The more matte finishes tend to be a bit more velvety, substantial, and less dry/powdery compared to prior iterations. The metallic finish is often the creamiest, slightly denser in feel, but has excellent pigmentation, adhesion, and blendability. The sparkling shades can have some fallout, depending on how they're applied and how sparkly they are, so they sometimes work better with fingertips or a dampened brush; they can also run sheerer compared to other finishes. Cream-Powders are the more unique formulation and tend to have firmer, almost stiff, consistencies and more semi-opaque, watercolor-esque coverage. They are longer-wearing, but they can take a few uses to learn how to use. This formula has also improved compared to when it first debuted--it is a bit more yielding now.

Harlow (277CP)Harlow (277CP) is a very light, yellowed taupe-brown with muted, warm undertones and a matte finish. The eyeshadow had opaque color payoff in a single layer, which applied well to bare skin with a smooth, even lay down of product that diffused easily along the edges. The texture was smooth, velvety, and dense without being too powdery nor too firmly pressed into the pan. It wore well for eight and a half hours before fading slightly. Top Dupes

via Temptalia https://ift.tt/2ZIQrds As I mentioned in the previous best of post featuring my favorite liquid lipsticks under $15… there weren’t nearly as many liquid lipsticks reviewed in 2019 as there were in prior years, which I think reflects a trend away from liquid lipstick, generally, though there are still plenty of liquid lipstick ranges available–there’s just been less added to the existing pool. Giorgio Armani Lip Maestro, which is one of my all-time favorite lipstick formulas, saw the addition of several shades that were more neutral- and earth-toned. I also finally managed to try and review Bobbi Brown’s Crushed Liquid Lipstick, which is another not-matte liquid lipstick (more like a lipstick/lipgloss hybrid really).

Your Year in Review: Liquid Lipstick Edition — Part 2I thought it would be interesting to read through how readers used products throughout the year, what favorites emerged, what products fell by the wayside… so, if you want to join in, copy and paste the questions below and add your answers via a comment!
via Temptalia https://ift.tt/2SLuSHo You know what 2019 was NOT the year of? Liquid lipsticks! The system only counted 88 liquid lipstick reviews (across all price points), which my lips are all-too happy about! If there’s further reduction in 2020, I’ll like combine my favorites into one post rather than split by price point (particularly since even this year’s roundup is dominated by one brand).
