This is such a pretty color! It is sparkly but not too sparkly and brightens my eyes. I have gotten many compliments while wearing this. The best part is that it stays on all day! Most eyeshadows start creasing or disappearing around midday but this lasted forever. I will buy again.

A nice copper shade with subtle shimmer to it. I use this shadow a lot when I want a natural look. Stays on my lids all day.

This is a sweet subtle coppery shade, not super metallic very mellow. Its been one of my staples for a long time and its great for an understated daytime eye. Glimmery but still pretty neutral, it would probably work on any skin tone. I've had mine for a while, and have just a smidge left :) so will probably get more one of these days.

I carry this in my purse for the days I wear no makeup and suddenly find out I need to look good or am about to run into an ex. You can put in on in the car with the crappy sponge tip aplicator and its so subtle and pretty you cant screw it up. I dont really use it any other time, but it is a quality item and handy when your in a jam.

I bought this for traveling as it's high quality and comes with a brush and mirror. I love browns for my blue eyes, and if I'm going somewhere, it's the only color I need to bring along because it's so versatile. I'm a little disappointed with this shadow, because despite what others said, it still creased on me. Granted, that can be cured with a little UDPP, but I bought it to decrease my makeup load. Next, it's not shimmery, it's glittery. I had glitter under my eyes midday, which wasn't exactly the look I was going for. Having said all that, it is still a beautiful color and I plan on keeping it my go-to for traveling. The packaging is so nice!

I'm warm-toned and this is the only copper e/s that looks good on me. The texture is soft and smooth, and the e/s applies evenly and looks natural. It gives a subtle glamour IMO. It's a light shimmery coppery shade with a slight hint of rose. The little compact comes with a mirror and a sponge applicator.

Beautiful! My friend got it for me as a birthday gift since I loved the color of the eyeshadow on her. It looks good on practically any pigment of skin and it just makes your eyes look glamarous. The color is a mix of gold and glitter... the flecks of gold make your eyes just radiant! I recommend this for everyone.

This eyeshadow is gorgeous! The only Origins shadow I own as of yet, but fabulous. It applied VERY well (a little went a long way), lasted all day, and didn't crease! Copper Penny is a WONDERFUL shade. It is a coppery (of course), bronzey color, with no glitter. It is shimmery and I imagine it would show well on most skin colors and types. I wore this on my blue eyes and got so many compliments! It was 12.50, and worth every (copper) penny. ;o)

The Origins eyeshadows are really nice..they wear all day, don't flake off, blend nicely, go on smoothly, feel weightless and can be used wet or dry. I have four shades and can't wait to get more.


Copper Penny is my favorite shade - it is a very shimmery (sort of bordering on glittery, but without the glittery mess falling on your cheeks), medium copper brown shade. It really brings out the green in my hazel eyes.


I can't say too many good things about Origins eyeshadow - they are really high quality, easy to use and all of the shades are very wearable.

This is one of my staple products--great especially in the summer time. Just gives eyes, of any color I would think, a bit of sparkle and pop, and it's still understated.

This is one of my very favorite if not favorite eyeshadows! So pretty and natural, yet very gorgeous and perfectly pigmented! Shimmery, slightly frosted, not copper orange at all. I think its mis-named. Its more a light taupey brown slightly medium tan copper unique color, completely natural though.
