I was so excited to try these shades once I saw them in store. They looked like very pretty taupes/brown-grays, but hardly any of that came out onto the lid. I've had pretty good luck with Maybelline shadows, but not this one. Almond Satin may be one of the worst pigmented shadows I've tried. I feel like I have to scrape the pan to get something, and when I do, it just looks chalky and is worn off in just hours even with primer. Don't let the colors deceive you, the product is not good!
Pretty, neutral colors, but very very sheer. I think the only way this trio works is for a very natural daytime look.
Pros: Long-lasting, dirt cheap
Cons: Can't get a big color payout, really cheap packaging
On the upside, the midtone color is really handy for filling in my blonde eyebrows!
When I first saw this prouduct, I thought the colors were soooo pretty for an everyday natural eye. But when I got home and tryed them out, they were so sheer! I was disappointed too because the colors were so pretty! Save your money for something else!
I bought this eyeshadow trio in awhim because the colors looked lovely. When I got home I looked up some reviews on this and saw that it had such a low rating. So I gave it a try and confirmed that those low reviews were true. The shadows are so sheer to the point where there is absolutely no color whatsoever. Tried with primer, wet brush, a luminizer, naw,no color. It's such a shame because the colors are really pretty. Please don't spend your money on particularly this color 'almond satin'
Whatever you do, skip this one. The colors look really pretty in the pan but do not translate at all on the lids because there is hardly any pigmentation. The most pigmented shade is the crease shade, and I would rate its pigmentation in between below average and average. I don't know if I can say that this will show up on fairer skintones (I'm NC30). It's really THAT bad.

Hardly any pigment. Very disappointing. The colors are nice neutrals suitable for cool-toned complexions. But they don't show up at all, even after applying a lot of product.

These might just be the worst eye shadows I've ever used. It's not that the colors are bad, it's just that they barely show up on the lid at all! Unlike my Coastal Scents shadows, it doesn't matter how much primer you use before applying these shadows; they just have no pigmentation or substance to them at all. It's like you're not even wearing makeup. A disappointing flop from an otherwise decent brand.
This is a bad eyeshadow. The color didn't show at all unless I put a lot of it. The base color does absolutely nothing. The lid color show little to nothing on my eyes and the crease color is the only color that shows a little bit.
Only good thing on the product is it is very cheap. I would suggest to get other darker colors or if u have super pale skin then this color might do.
I like the neutral shades, but the trio is not quite as pigmented as I would like.
It has a large portion of ivory matte that is used as a base, then a lid shade that is shimmery, and the crease color is a darker brown that is matte.
This is a palette that I would love to love, but it seemed to fade on me throughout the day. The lid color is very close to my regular skin tone.
