I have two dark, matte brown/plum shades, Self-Referential and Mother Earth. While both work pretty well as liners with a bit of water and the right brush, they're a little drab and crease easily. The soft texture is nice, but both of the pans cracked and crumbled within a few uses.

A beauty store has opened up right near my train station, and it seems that they have bought up all of the discontinued Tony & Tina stock. You can choose 3 items for a total of $AUD5, which is fantastic! I purchased the Color Frequency Eye Shadow in Encore (shimmer), and in the package it looked like a beautiful, shimmery lavender. When I tried it on, it was less lavender and more of a lovely whiteish-pale-purple and it looks FANTASTIC! The colour is so wearable and flattering, especially for highlighting the inner corner. Also, it wears very well without creasing or fading. I'm going to go back to the store and stock up on as much as I can because this is my new HG :)

Product Description: This luxurious formula contains chamomile and vitamins to sooth tired eyes, reduce puffiness and provide powerful anti-oxidant properties, as it imparts intense, shimmering color.

On Me:Bought Cosmic Connection (Baby Blue with silver shimmer) & Cosmic Intelligence (Peachy with gold shimmer). Simply love their colours & the shimmer that stands out! No creasing on lids, goes on smoothly like cream, I want more! What stopped me previously was the price, now that everythings 50% off i might try to get my hands on more. Dont really like the packaging...dont understand why there's space for an applicator but none is provided.

I own Cosmic Mindtazia, and I love it. I use it as an eyeliner, and it's so easy to apply w/a wet eyeliner brush. It has amazing staying power, sometimes it's actually difficult to get off (I'm also timid w/the makeup remover in the eye area, but I get most things off easily). Love, love, love, can't wait to get more.

i got this in expressive energy. Its a quad and its got blue colors. It looks bright in the pan but they looks super sheer and see-through when you put them on. I love them. They are sooo irredescent and people always comment on how great the colors look on me. My fave is the baby blue shimmer which is really soft and irredescent and looks kinda purply. Its got great brushes too!!!

I find that it's trial and error with these shadows - some are highly pigmented, others don't come on for the life of you - but the ones that do work ARE beautiful. I've found the best application with Cosmic Truth (a very, very bright golf course grass green) and Affirmation (pretty reddish toned brown with shimmer). $18 CDN for a single, and $24 for a duo... and in my experience, have found none of the duos to have exceptional quality at all.

I always thought Tony & Tina was for the younger crowd, but I am wowed by these eyeshadows which is first thing I tried from the line. I have it in "Bonding" which is a matte bone shade and "Self-Referential" which is a matte berry/brown shade.

My eyes always show dehydration lines in the afternoon with other shadows, but this is a creamy/powdery consistency that goes on easily, never flakes, keeps the area soft and moisturized and stays on all day. I think it's fairly pigmented and has ingredients that are good for your skin. I just wish they had more color selections to choose from. I'm 44, with combination skin. I loved these colors so much I bought the Evolving Beauty face palette for my purse since both eyeshadow colors are included in it.

I love Tony and Tina. They are very imaginative and creative. These eyeshadows are great. One is lighter and the other contrasts with it. They are flake-free, and some are highly pigmented. singles are 14, and duos are 16. I recommend getting them.

I bought this product in Beginning (black with a tiny bit of glitter) and so far, so good. I use it as an eyeliner with a wet el brush. It has a nice highly pigmented color and stays on all day. Glitter is not noticeable at all...only in the container. Cute silver compact. Does not come with an applicator.


UPDATE: ohhh it smudges well tooooo!

I don't care for this at all...I've tried cosmic intelligence, which was not lasting enough, and then what I think is cosmic truth - a grass green that was VERY strong. Let me tell you, it looks exactly the same on as in the container - bright! To me, it was just sickeningly pigmented, and was very difficult to blend at all. I personally do not like using only one color at a time (like to blend a few related colors, though some people may be different) and it seems that would be impossible with this, especially since I believe they only have one other kind of green. This color was just a little sickening.

Also, overpriced for a small amount, in a small container, and no applicator.

I bought Cosmic Intelligence and am thoroughly disappointed. The colour disappears after a few minutes, and a chunky glittery residue is left. The glitter also tends to migrate, and so I end up with glitter under my eyes and on my eyelashes. The eye shadow itself is of a nice texture, and I can't help but wonder if maybe I just picked a dud colour? I probably won't buy any more from this brand though, since I wouldn't call it good value.

I find it hard to find a product that refuses to test on animals, use animal products, is neon colored and is of a good quality. I found all those elements in this eyeshadow i have Cosmic Guidance, Cosmic Truth, Conscious, and Mindtazia. Neon pink, green, silver, and blackest green respectivly. They are highly pigmented and have an amazing lasting power. They are also terrific to line your eyes with if you dip a drush into water. Lastly, i loved the packaging-every surface is a mirror!

I purchased this shadow in Mindtazia, a really beautiful shimmery forest green in the container. But once I put it on, it turned a smokey black color with no hint of green or glimmer. After just an hour, it creased even with a base. Very disappointing procuct!

I am very fair, with red hair and greenish-blue eyes, and the Cosmic Truth palette looks just great on me. The cream base helps keep it on, the parrot/grass green can go on sheer or striking depending on how many layers I put on, and the smoky blackish-green with glitter in it is fabulous either as a liner or as a contour. The highlight color blends well. After a full day of wearing it, the color did crease, but I still get compliments on my eyes every time I wear this.

i have this shadow and i like it a lot. it has very strong pigmentation and stays well. i don't like the package, as the shadow is loose and may one day fall out. but aside from that, i like this a lot. the colors are bright, but i like that.

i bought this eyeshadow in a very shimmery black color with lots of green in it. (i forget the name..) i really like the color, which is highly pigmented and and doesn't fade much after being worn for 7-8+ hours. i love wearing this shade as eyeliner (it's great for smokey eyes, too) and i would definitely recommend it.

edited to add: i also have the orange with shimmer and love that too! i wish it was a LITTLE more shimmery, though. but i am not complaining.

I found the pigment of these shadows wonderful, the texture soft, and easy to blend, and the colours ranging from soft and neutral to bright and funky. Nice duos. Would buy again.

I agree, it was really weird that there was a space for an applicator, but no applicator with it. I also bought the lime color (Cosmic Truth) and also was disappointed that it was a very matte color when applied. This is one of those things that looks a lot better on the outside than when really used. Too bad.
