Such a beautiful color this really brings me back, this was the first shadow I ever bought and this was when I was in 7th grade. I've owned numerous of these and I love it its a very pigmented shimmery gold, you can use a light hand if you wanted to to get a lighter application. This brand is extremely extremely hard to find, the only place I can find it now is at rite aid I believe I got mine for $3 but the pan is huge and will last you a while

Beautiful gold colour that is relatively inexpensive. I've been using this for several years. Amazing texture. Although it is the sort of shadow that will literally suit everyone, i have to say, this does great things for browns esp. I have brown eyes and this is perfect to bring them out. It looks good with purples, blues, browns. You can use it all by itself for a nice look. I think this with blue mascara is a cute look. Everybody else has described the colour in detail... I just wanted to list some eyeshadow combos this will look good in, in case anybody is at a loss. I saw a great reviewer do this in some mac reviews, (she hs a site called macshadowcombos.com if u wanna see the pics to go with the suggestions)
and found it beyond helpful so i though i'd pay it forward, with cheaper products :) mua is a great resource n sharing ground for these things...

If you love gold eyeshadow, you may want this drugstore gem. . If Urban Decay Half Baked was too yellow and made you look sickly, you might want to try this. It is very similar to Urban Decay Half Baked but pulls less yellow and applies more smoothly too. I'm NC40-42 and it's gorgeous with a dark matte brown in my outer v. I have a ton of eyeshadows and this is definitely one of the prettiest on me. I'm impressed with how pigmented and smooth it is as well.

This is a very pigmented eyeshadow. The color is gorgeous. However, I found that I can only use a tiny bit of it at a time because it clashes horribly against my fair skin. I think this is due to my cool/neutral undertones. Since this is a true gold/coppery shadow, it does not flatter my complexion. I still find ways to use it. I would use it more if I could. It's a great product and I really wish it would look right on me :(

Great pigmentation; a pretty, shimmery gold. An extremely generous amount, more than worth the amount paid.

I picked this up and a couple other shadows because they were on a great sale. I am very disappointed. It took a lot of shadow to cover the lid, and I could NOT get the blasted stuff to blend. It even end up creasing a couple hours later and I've never had that with any of my other shadows. (I usually use mac) I understand that the quality will be different, but I am just shocked by really how terrible these were.

AMAZING! GREAT PRICE!
i recently picked up this shade and "glisten" at my local drugstore for only 3$ which is great for such a high quality shadow! i decided to venture into the back of the store to look and ended up finding a whole section of every prestige color available! i was amazed and had to try some out. great pigmentation, you get full color for all day with just one or two dips with a fluffy shadow brush. absolutely gorgeous color and shimmer, and an overall amazing product! for other even more expensive shadows ive tried, this one still beats them all! definitely buy this! no matter what colors you like, in shimmer or matte, you can find it in prestige. so next time your looking for a great, low price shadow, definitely go for this!(:

Really nice eye shadow - an orange-gold foil - almost creamy. However, completely wrong for my coloring. I have pink skin, blue eyes, dark mousy blonde hair. Wish they made this in a cool brown.

One of the most beautiful shades of gold I've seen, and also the most pigmented. I instantly fell in love at Rite Aid. The texture reminds me of Stila e/s but more pigmented and buttery; it doesn't feel like a d/s shadow at all. I love the formula, it's so blendable and smooth. This is a very warm gold color that looks great on everyone except me. On my pale skin it looks orange. :( This shade would look STUNNING on medium to dark skinned ladies. UD Half Baked works much better for me.

Not much to add that hasn't already been said, although I am probably applying it differently than some...
Gorgeous, true gold; beautifully pigmented, and silky texture. For myself, I line my upper lids with a soft taupe pencil, then use my angled eyeliner brush to apply Golden Retriever over top of the pencil... pretty close to the lashline.
Pair it with a deep black mascara, and it makes my blue eyes sparkle and pop, while maintaining essentially a "nude eye." Wonderful, wonderful stuff...!

In terms of quality, texture and pigmentation this is a wonderful eyeshadow. For any warm tone girl I would totally recommend, however I have pale, pale skin and this just makes my eye area look orangey. I should have known just by lookin at in the container that it wouldn't work for me, but it was on sale at rite-aid and I read all the good reviews and just wanted to see what all the hype was about. It is truely a great shadow for that with warm tones, but for a pale girl like me not so much. It has inspired me to try other shades from prestiges eyeshadow line and hopefully they will be similar in quality to this because it could give high end shadows a run for their money.

This is my favorite gold eyeshadow. it literally looks like liquid gold on your lids. so pigmented and shimmery. beautiful color.

What can I say that everyone else hasn't already said? This is a lovely gold eyeshadow. It is finely milled, not chunky in the least. You may apply it wet for a gold-leaf look, or dry for a subtle glimmer.
.
I would say it is among the most beautiful eyeshadows I own. {I don't buy ones from MAC or Chanel, or something.. so i'm talking drugstore-wise}
.
I will be buying other shadows from Prestige to see if they are as perfect. Hope so!

This is soo pigmented it rocks. I love the color its soo nice and shimmery. I dont like matte, the texture is silky not at all chalky. Very use to use and apply. The packing is okay. easy too open and not bulky. i love the little pattern that comes on top of the shadow. I use all my prestige eyeshadows a bunch because they are great. The price is reasonable. I wish they'd make palletes with all the colors. And you get alot of product for the price! A goto color during the summer

This is hands-down the best eyeshadow I've used. This is actually better than MAC, and for such a cheap price. I love this color, it goes on a coppery-gold and has a shimmery, silky texture. It lasts hours without creasing with primer, and is absolutely gorgeous. I love this color and the formula of Prestige shadows. This is a great buy and better quality than many HE brands for about $4. It's so pigmented I only need one swipe of a brush for full-on color. It's that amazing. It's totally worth the money, I LOVE it!

I had came across this eyeshadow at Ulta. I was looking for a gold color that I could use everyday on my eyes and decided to get this eyeshadow. I use it practically everyday. It's a nice gold color, if I put too much on it can sometimes tend to look a bit like bronzey-orange. But overall I still love this eyeshadow. It stays on for a long time and I would definitely recommend it to other people. =)

This eye shadow is ridiculous! It's so incredibly smooth and blend-able and pigmented. The staying power is amazing as well. It's a lovely true gold shade, perfect by itself or blending with browns/cranberries.
The price is really cheap, and the quality is way better than any other eye shadow I own (MAC, Urban Decay etc.)
Buy this!

A limerick review for Prestige's Golden Retriever.

Fun metallic shadows all have their place,
So I went with this for a nice change of pace.
This is quite a nice gold,
Fits skin tones warm/cold,
Just make sure you're okay with a dog on your face.

SOOOO pigmented and lasts forever (both in the pan and on the eyelids)! Goes well with my skin tone, only I have to pair it with a darker colour or else my eyes look dead. I've seen that some of you got it for cheap in the US, but it's more expensive in Canada, about $6-7 each. Still, it's georgey. Used to to create this look.

Thanks to the stellar reviews I saw here, I bought this and am very happy with my purchase :) This is so pigmented, its crazy and the color is beautiful. A great everyday alternative to bronze or brown, and very easy to glam up. Lots of product for the money, $3.50, found this at Rite Aid. The picture I uploaded is just this shadow on lids, matte white under brow bone, black ELF eyeliner and Full n Soft black mascara. Will be buying more Prestige for sure!
