First, I really like the packaging of this product. It's a small container with an applicator. Very convenient to carry around and for quick retouches.

Sugar Sugar is a white shimmery color. It's a little too shimmery and pigmented for wearing on it's own. But it works great as a highlighter on the brow bone, or on the base for another color.

A nice frosty white. It works fabulously as a highlight color or blending color but I find it too sheer to be used on the eyelids.

Sugar Sugar is a nice white shimmery color, but its a very soft sheer color...so depending on what you are going to use this for, that could be good or bad. I don't hate it, but I also don't especially love it. Its just kind of decent for me. I will say it isn't something I grab for all the time...and I feel it is very easily duped. It works nice as an inner corner highlight and depending on what else you are wearing, can work as a nice brow highlight. I have also used this on my cupids bow and a couple times on my cheekbones to highlight... it blends out enough so you are left with the shimmer, but not the white coloring...which is nice. I won't repurchase this though because I have others in my collection that are cheaper, more pigmented, and I just over all enjoy more.

Great for highlighting and very blendable. It's not too sheer or dramatic

Overall rating: I depotted this shade from an RIS quad mainly because I didn't already have a pure white brow bone highlighter and I like shimmer, so this fits the bill. I don't use it too much because it looks very stark on me, even when I apply it lightly. However, I'd miss it if I didn't have it, and if I could ever figure out the "inner eye highlight," I just may use it more!
Price: Medium-end at $14 to $15 for the single.
Packaging: Standard eyeshadow packaging.
Would I buy again: No, but I might swap for it if this breaks or I ever use it up!

I love clinique's eye shadow and this one is no exception. It's a great white shade that's also just a little luminous, but overly luminous. I personally prefer ivory/bone shades rather than pure white (try Daybreak), but if you're looking for a white, this is a great choice.

It's a nice white shadow you can easily use for highlights, and it works well as that. I really have no qualms with the product, as it is a perfectly nice highlight color. However, with so many other whites/near-whites I've gotten as free samples for other purchases, I really don't feel any need to repurchase this right now. If you need a good highlight color, go for it, but if you have some others, then I don't think you're really missing out.

Got this as gwp quad along with Disco Pink and Coffee Shop(duo). This is a great highlighter. Blends well with other colors. I love it and plan to repurchase.

Like other reviewers, I first got this eyeshadow as a GWP, and I love to use it as a highlighter. It's everything that you need in a highlighter for the browbone and inner corner. I also use it on my bottom lashline to brighten up that area. I like to blend it with other eyeshadows to create a light frost color on my lids, or I will use it as a base color and use a fun colored eyeliner. Overall, one of my favorite eyeshadows and a staple in my makeup bag. I will definitely buy this again and again.

I also got this color first as a freebie and then went and bought the full size. I used is a brow and inner corner highlighter, too. I think this color somehow has more staying power than my other Clinique eyeshadows, which don't seem to have much at all. It seems less powdery somehow. I think this color would work on anyone.
EDIT: I have abandoned Clinique shadows for MAC - my new highlighting shade is Dazzlelight.

Exact same comments as the last two people! Again, I got it as a freebie with a purchase, and I love it as a eyebrow and eye-corner highlighter. It appears very white, but creates a fairly natural though significant brightening effect, with a little shimmer. I love all the shadows I got, but I use this one the most - every day. Love it, love it.

I love this as a brow highlighter and for the inner corners of my eyes, too! I got this in a pallate of 4 colors, as a freebie from Clinique...greatest freebie ever.

I love Clinique eyeshadow. The shade is excellent for putting on the bottom lashline to make eyes look extra bright and open. I recomend this shade for lighter skin tones that have a cool compextion.

This is what I use daily for highlighting, its not too special but its very pretty all the same. The white is ever so slightly off-white which makes a tad warmer/ more yellow-y than a paper/snow white-white which I like better with my skintone, and the shimmer gives it a nice sheen. If you're going to wear it all over the lid you need a primer underneath otherwise this stuff creases like crazy.

This eyeshadow is definitely a necessity! It's a pearly shimmery white color, but no overpowering or extremely glittery. It looks great as a base for other colors, or simply worn alone. I sometimes use it at the inner corners of my eyes to highlight them, it really makes me look awake. The great thing about it is, it's very soft and powdery, so you can barely feel it. I have sensitive skin, and I haven't reacted to it yet! Because of it's powderyness however, touch-ups will be necessary. But overall it's an amazing eyeshadow!!

This eyeshadow is wonderful. It reall does last all day and looks the same as when you first put it on. It looks fabulous and the package is a cute little light green square compact. This is the only eyeshadow I use!

This eye shadow is the perfect white eye shadow with a hint of shimmer for underneath your brows, or in the inner corners of your eyes! It blends easily and lasts all day long. Great quality! I am wearing Sugar Sugar in all my pictures in my profile, so take a look if you'd like :) I will defiantly repurchase!

This is a great white shadow. Iuse it as a brow bone highlighter above the crease (with a seperate color on the crease). No matter what, I always have this shadow on. Like all Clinique shadows it goes on smooth and does not crease. I heart it!
