If you ever come across these, try it. I got 2 pans in brown tone and simply loving it. Colour payoff is super and texture is smooth.

Love it

I love these eyeshadows. I got them in gift packs, so they were much cheaper than buying them individually. They are soft, pigmented and you get more product in them that in a MAC eyeshadow.

Go to my blog to see the swatches of the colours I have

I only have a few of these eyeshadows but I love them! They're a great size, and the simple square casing makes them easy to stack in the compartments of my makeup box! I've been impressed with the pigmentation and ease of application. Would definitely buy these again and wish they were more readily available in the UK!

Some of these eye shadows are easier to work with than others. I have a few that came in value sets and some I reach for often and others I hardly ever wear. They aren't very soft, but the pigmentation is good. I have sensitive eyes/skin/everything and korres products never seem to irritate me. The packaging feels cheap but I've never had any problems with it.

I just LOVE the Korres eyeshadows! They are so smooth and velvety with amazing pigmentation! I find them just as good -if not better- than Mac -except for the color selection, but that will grow too i guess :)

Pretty basic eyeshadow. It has good pigmentation. Not great, but very good. The colors go on silky, with no chalkiness or clumpiness. The colors last the workday with no creasing, though I do notice a small amount of creasing later in the night. Overall good wear. I will buy more of these, I got them in a kit and it was a good deal. I also really like how the color is swatched on the bottom so no need to read, like in other packaging.

I got the shimmering white in a swap since I am a sucker for highlight colors. It's a very shimmery white shadow that sorta resembles vanilla pigment pressed minus the gold. I find this shadow is so soft and easy to blend. However it is a way too frosty for me as a highlight.The packaging is also cute, very tiny and sleek. I would probably not buy this again though.

My fav way to wear this: Bare study all over the lid. A shimmery champagne all over the lid and on the brow bone. A subtle color in the crease, like Mac's Sable or Urban Decay's hustle or Naked. Lots of blackrack fluidline on the top only and tons of black mascara. Top it all off with this Korres shadow in the inner corners of the eyes. Such a brightening effect. It will take me a lifetime to finish this shadow up using this way but I'll try my best ;)

I'm a Korres fan, but really dislike their shadows. My color is supposed to be a "base" with some shimmer, but all I got was flat and chalky non-color. These aren't cheap, but there's no mirror in the case--a pet peeve of mine.

I really lilke this eyeshadow. I bought the sky blue on sale at Sephora for $7. The color is very vivid and lasts not quite all day but close. Would definitely recommend these shadows--especially when on sale or part of a set.

I had plum and already reviewed. Just got 10S, 46S, 84S and these are all awesome. On sale at Sephora for $7 now if you can get your hands on them! Amazing smooth texture and great colors.

I am truly in love with these shadows. Browsing around my local Sephora last week, I picked up the Golden Goddess Collection (silver, golden bronze, golden brown, and golden green) and the Smokey Eyes Collection (white, plum, dark gray, and gray brown). Each collection comes with 4 eye shadows, an eyeliner, a mascara, and a lipgloss.

The only thing from Korres I've ever purchased are the Pomegranate cleansing cloths, and I love those! So I figured the collections were a good way to try lots of different eye products. I am so glad I did.

These eyeshadows are silky, buttery, smooth. The pigmentation is great. They last all day with both my UDPP and my MAC PP's.

I love that these don't irritate my eyes, are wonderful natural neutral colors, and apply beautifully. I will definitely be purchasing these again.

Korres has a selection of mostly natural shades. I bought the Golden Goddess collection that included Golden Green, Silver, Golden Bronze and Golden Brown. I found the eye shadows to be soft and buttery. Golden Brown and Golden Bronze were pigmented and very lovely. Silver and Golden Green were more sheer.

If you buy them during their sales and in sets, I think they are of great value. But not if you buy them at full retail price.

Unfortunately they don't have a wide selection of colors so I don't see anymore colors that appeal to me.

Nice compact little case, with a wonderful product inside. I have both the White and Sky Blue colors of this shadow, and they're some of my favorites. They are very smooth to apply, and stay on very nicely all day. I love the natural ingredients, and can definitely feel the difference with these soothing shadows, they're weightless, and don't irritate my eyes like some shadows do.

I happened to be lucky that I was able to swap for one of these, and got the other on sale for $7, but they're worth the regular price! I would definitely buy again, even if I had to pay full!

These eyeshadows from Korres are fantastic! I was browsing at Sephora one afternoon when I came across a Korres Smokey eye collection that included 4 eyeshadows, mascara, lipgloss and an eye pencil. The promo pic showed a model with a dark grey eyeshadow on her lids with what appeared to be a dark purple shade applied on top. I wanted to recreate the look so instead of purchasing the entire kit, I bought the dark grey shadow, 54S, and the purple shade, 77S. These two shades are included in the kit but can be purchased individually from the regular Korres line. These shadows apply silky smooth and have a beautiful sheen and shimmer that`s not over the top. I am also impressed with the fact that these single eyeshadows from Korres are not as expensive compared to other make-up lines. Staying power with these shadows are excellent when used over a good eyeshadow primer.

I have this eyeshadow in the silver & pink. Highly pigmented, beautiful soft colors, long lasting, and doesn't flake off during the day. Not dusty or soft at all but a nice wash of color. A good price and Korres actually have a solid line.

I really love these shadows! I just bought the smoky look kit and it came with 4 shadows: a white, a pretty medium taupe, a dark bluish gunmetal silver, and a gorgeous dark plum color (all shimmery). I've tried them all out, and they're great! I especially love the taupe (perfect everyday all-over lid or light crease color) and the plum (looks kind of like MAC's beauty-marked). I also love the dark silver, it's one of the few that doesn't wash me out. I'm not crazy about the white, but I don't like white shadow anyway. The texture is soft and blendable. It last all day under a primer (I have the oiliest lids and can't go without primer, so I don't know how it lasts otherwise). The shimmer is also not overpowering and more satiny than anything. Pigmentation is good. They're packaged in little thin, square, flip-open containers (not bulky at all). Overall, definitely a winner. I bought these in a value set, however, so the price came down to about $6 apiece, so I gave them 5 lips, but if I had to pay full price, I'd only give them 4 (I refuse to pay for expensive makeup!).

I love this eyeshadow, I have it in Orange, which is very light and just brightens my eyes considerably. I often use it around the brow bone or on the inside angle of the lid just to add that little extra pop. It goes on way smooth and stays perfectly.

First off I love this brand! I got the shimmering eyeshadow in olive green and I love it! I was looking for a deep green eye shadow at sephora and this was the perfect color! It has a bit of a shimmer to it, and I really think it sets off my eyes. This is the first eye shadow I've bought, but it won't be the last.

Fantastic! I am outdoors most of the days and I like something with intensity but it has to be natural at the same time. I have the Korres Shimmering Eye Shadow in Golden Brown (medium depth) and Gold (which is light, I use it for highlighting). The colors are very unique to the brand. It goes on silky smooth and lasts in it's intensity. Quickly becoming my favorite.
