Bought this in WALNUT. Too sheer for my time table! I don't have time to layer layer layer to get the effect I want. Nice color, nice smooth powder, decent price, too much bother.

Shadow consitance and pigment are great! Just needs more variety of colors. The Liquid shadows make a great non-creasing eye base!

I really like these colors. These and Bobbi Brown are my favorites. Mac is great as a compliment. I like choices for my many moods.

i have this in banana and it's a really nice eyeshadow. doesn't add much color but brightens up my eye area and evens it out. i also really like the packaging - the pans pop out so you can change them if you like. i think they're worth a try!

Not much hype surrounding these shadows but, trust me, they are terrific! Creamy, smooth, and nicely pigmented. They truly feel so wonderful on the lid and cover well. Definitely worth a purchase.

The new Px eye shadows are the bomb! I am 35 yo and I just adore the texture, the blending, the colors. I love them. I like them better than Shu Uemura, Chantecaille and Nars. The Texture is more like Stila. I also love Stila eye shadow. They are shimmery but look gorgeous!

I purchased these in Rose Smoke & Rose Powder, they really bring out the green in my blue/gray/green eyes. I LOVE THEM !!! Next I'm going to try the Plum shades that another green-eyed reviewer suggested =)

Prescriptives shadows are rather hit or miss. Sometimes they are nicely pigmented and sometimes they are not. In August 2005, Prescriptives released a new line of shadows and is discontinuing all the old shadows including the Quick Pick 2 shadows. The new shadows are called ColorFocus and some have the same names as the Pick 2 shadow except the color are slightly different and much better quality. The old shadows retailed for $13 for the individual pan. You can purchase compacts separetely. The old compacts were grey and white. The new Color Focus shadows are much better quality. Richly pigmented too! The new shadows come in squares and retail for $14 each. The new compacts are silver and white, much more stylish. I recommend the new color focus shadows.

another one of my many favorite beauty products, prescriptives eye shadow is amazing! i have it in...er...i dont remember the shade, but its lilac with glitter. i usually dont go for glitter, but this glitter is pretty and subtle, not chunky and flashy looking. i have blue eyes with a touch of green in them, and this shadow brings out the green in them to a beautiful aqua color, the shadow still looking sheer and beautiful. you can layer it on to your hearts desire, and it will only intensify the color. wear it sheer, or vibrant! wow that just sounded like an infomercial haha. anyway, at the counter they put the shadow in a cute little compact for me. this stuff costs only $14 which is a steal for such a great product. i definately would buy this again.

I have several different colors of eyeshadow from prescriptives. I am a y/o and don't always stick with my own color family. I love frositng though. I put it all over and follow up with eyeliner for a day time look and it's great. It lasts all day and makes my eyes look bright.

i love prescriptives eyeshadow! the pigment lasts forever and i get endless compliments on it. i have the pick 2 eyeshadows in a shimmery lilac color and a matte mauve (i'm really sorry, i've had this shadow forever and i can't remember the color names for the life of me!) its a beautiful every day look that i can't get enough of. of all the eyeshadows i've ever tried, prescriptives has definitely been the most rewarding.

Someone told me the Frosting eye shadow would look good on me & I am so glad I tried it! I might have just over looked it otherwise. It is like MAC vanilla, but better. I never understood all the hype about the vanilla pigment, it was so boring, IMO. It looks great up by the brow bone as a highlighter. And it also makes a great eye wash. I weare it on the brow bone and in the center of my eyelid to kinda open up my eyes. It is a staple for me, will buy again when I am out. it is very universal and will go w/ any eyeshadow.

I absolutely love PX eyeshadows! I think they have great colors and they last ALL DAY for me (I also use Clinique touch base for eyes under my eyeshadow and that helps to intensify the color and maintain it all day). You can buy them as singles (around $13) or in the larger mix-n-match refillable palettes. I would definitely recommend PX eyeshadows to anyone anytime!

I have a couple of basic eyeshadow colours which are Px and I use them off and on all the time. They're not exciting - but they do the job they're designed for. If I didn't have them I would have to go out and find them. They have minimal shimmer and work on the days I don't want 'rainbow' MAC style eyes. I'm down to the metal pan on both of them!

Prescriptives is the worth kind of eye shadow I've ever tried for the price and the name, I put it on and after half hour it was almost gone, that never happens to me, usually shadows stay on my eyes all night. Really bad and expensive

Prescriptives shadows are probably the worst I have ever tried. The have little pigment and don't blend easily. They are also quite small and come in a rather cheap quality and cheap looking compact.

I wouldn't buy a Prescriptives eye shadow myself. I mean, it's not cheap and there are a lot of shadows out there with better color selections, silkier textures, nicer pakages, etc. I got this eye shadow because I bought this concealer from Prescriptives which I didn't like and went for exchange, then ended up getting this shadow in "stormy 16". It looks like one normal brownish shadow, really nothing special. But when I had it on, another story. It really isn't a normal brown color, some deep reddish color or purplish color is mixed in there, but not exactly --it's hard to describe the color, but all I've got to say is WOW! Beautiful brown with nice texture and just the right amount of shimmer. And I can always mix it with my other shadows, like pink, blue, purple and gives really nice results! EDIT: This has become my most versatile everday brown shade. Love it.

The color selection is great, but these shadows have dismal staying power. They blend well, but just don't last. I wil not be buying these again.
