This is a glimmery "cream eye shadow" or "eye base".

The shade is nice, a light gold with similar speckles.
It's definetely a pack of glimmer that will stay on your eyes since it is a cream formula, and not just loose shadow or glitter.

The cons are that it does crease, even with a primer.
The price is high, and if you dislike the "Anna Sui" scent.. Well everything's packed with that scent.

I personally don't mind it, but I have had this for a few years, and it still works just fine. It hasn't dried out. And there's quite a bit of product left because when you are using cream products, you should be light-handed as using more will cause creasing.

Not sure I'll rebuy because there are other shimmery products out on the market that probably do its job better than this.. But it is very cute.

Let me start off by saying although my mediocre ratings, I really do like this product. It is a nice shimmery pale shade. Makes for a great highlighter. Cons, mine is broken (bummer) and the retail price is high. I bought mine clearanced because the particular boutique no longer planned to carry it and they threw in their sample of it as well. Quite a deal for me, plus I am always happy to try different brands. Happy I tried it, but too rich for my blood!

Beautiful color(shimmering pale yellow) and smell! This is my first Anna Sui e/s and i'm satisfied with the quality. Color is perfect for base and highlighting. Also fragrance is like lemon, a fresh smell.
EDIT : This color doesn't show its yellow color. It looks only shimmery after a time. I won't repurchase. And i'm taking off 2lipsticks.

Beautiful pale frosty+shimmery yellow, i just love this color to wear as a wash on my lids, with a bit of smokey brown eyeliner for regular "going to school/work" days. I looooove this. Very nice texture that blends effortlessly. I got this eyeshadow for free for spending a certain amount of $ at the A.Sui counter. The packaging is kind of annoying because you it's a screw-off top (ugh), but i'll deal :) Nice! i would definately repurchase if need be :)

I am in love with this shade and 700. Compared to 700 this is warmer and more buttery shade. It is a great shimmery basic that lightens my eyes instantly. It stays on all day and the fragrance never was a problen to me. love paiting it with just a purple eye shadow as a liner but would work with many colors.

This is the perfect frosty pale yellow e/s for my taste with the beautiful metalic sheen. It may seem too frosty to other people's tastes, but you can always tone it down with matt medium dark e/s. Anna sui's e/s texture is as pretty much as good as stila, GA, chantecaille which I've owned. It's easy to blend, staying power super good and its packaging is adorable. It's quite silky and very pigmented generally. I think #800 would suit any kind of skin color as long as you like frosty ane metalic sheen. One thing to be aware, it got shattered during travelling, but I am not sure if it's becuz it was a rough trip or it just breaks easily.

This is a pretty shimmery pale yellow. If I over apply, it tends to show up very frosty on my tan asian complexion. A light hand is all I need for a natural look. I normally use this as a base shade with a dark matte gray shadow in the crease. This combination may seem bizarre, but it really brings out my dark brown eyes. I like the pigmentation and texture of Anna Sui shadows, and this shade is no different. My only (small) complaint is the rose scent. The fragrance is just so overwhelming.
I have to hold my breath when unscrewing the top. Other than this, I highly recommend this shade.
