This had to be THE worst eyeshadow I've used, it was hard to work with both wet and dry, it was splotchy, flakey- just terrible quality. I've never been a Physician's Formula person, I dont know why I tried this but I quickly pitched it in the trash.

Have this in Baked Smokes & Baked sugar

I got this when it first came out which was $12-$15. but now its $8-$10.
either way I find this pretty expensive for being a drugstore product.

They are ultra shimmery and sheer, not really pigmented. sometime can come off chalky on your eyes.

I'm almost done with Baked sugar so I am going to review this one first
Its basically your skin but shimmery, only because its very sheer. I used all three (not at the same time) to brighten up my eyes. I used the two brown colors most, and have completely gone through it. I remembered it being very messy, meaning over time my whole face got shimmery from the shadow on my eyes.
now I only have the white color left, which is the most pigmented out of them all. I tried it as a eye brightener, I wouldnt suggest this since its sooo white and shimmery its not good at all. however I have been using it as a highligher which kinda work. but since I am almost done with it (project pan) I am going to deal with it. There is still fall out but i guess since its on my upper cheek bone it doesnt fly all over the place (dry skin oily lids maybe). but I love this shadow as a highligher

Baked smokes
the two lighter shades on the dome looks completely different but when you apply on your eyes they look completely the same. I was obsessed with this trio because I used to do nothing but smokey eye but now I have gone to natural. I do turn to this trio when i have date night.
I love this trio HOWEVER the only problem I have with this is the same problem with the baked sugar. With baked sugar you can't tell with fall out as much because theres no color to it. but with baked smokes... theres no getting away with it. I suggest using a primer.



with the packaging, I had both lids on both trios broke on me, the packaging is just very cheap and poor quality. it is also bulky. The sponge tip allwas falls out but if you really put it in there, it gets stuck and is impossible to take out unless you have long nails to dig it out.

NOTE if you use these dry expect tons of fall outs, HOWEVER if you wet your brush a little, there will still be fall out but not as much.


I do love the look it gives, if it didnt have so much fall out. Once I have gone through the two trio that i have I will not be repurchasing this.I would not recommend this at all to anyone with oily lids

I was so pleased with this e/s :) I bought the Butter and Gingersnap and both colors brought out my green eyes so much! I've been using the sponge applicator it came with and use it wet. Using it dry is too subtle for me but it's still nice. The colors blend like cream eyeshadow but don't crease. Ah-mazinggg! Will be buying more of the colors in this collection. Highly recommended.

AHHH I LOOVE this. I would compare this to MAC quality. Wearing them wet that it. This also lasts you FORVER! Give it a try and youll be surprised. These colors actually DO work together which I find isnt true for most " pro picked color palettes "

i really do enjoy this trio its perfect for everyday looks maybe for work and just overall day looks and if you want to wear a little more intense just use wet for night looks but this is truly a great find the shadows colors compliment one another the texture is more of a satin finish right amount of shimmer and its pretty convinient for traveling this has been my go to when it comes to just trowing a few shadows into my purse i definetly wantg to buy the other colors!

These are actually a lot smaller in real life than how they appear online. The texture is not quite a powder - it's more like a cream, very similar to Almay Bright Eyes Cream Eyeshadow and Revlon Beyond Natural Cream to Powder Eyeshadow. I do believe it is better because it doesn't dissolve into a mass of glittery Vaseline within an hour like the other two.

I've tried Baked Sands and it's okay, it's more copper based which wasn't what I was looking for. See separate review for Baked Oatmeal and Smokes.

But overall - decent lasting power and pigmentation.

I bought this in 'baked smokes'.
I like this eyeshadow but it is a little too expensive for me (approx $8).
If you use it wet, it does last a lot longer on your eyes than if you use it dry, and there's less mess.
I wish there were more colors to choose from though.

I have this in baked oatmeal and i love it. love the lightest color for highlight and love the darkest color for outer "V" two of the 3 shadow "bubbles" broke though, but i didnt drop it =[ the colors are well pigmented and are easy to blend. i recommend this trio!

I have walked by the Baked Collection eye shadows many, many times, without giving a second thought to buying one. I was looking for an eyeshadow set- and being disappointed in most drugstore sets, settled on this...so glad I did! This does not disappoint in the least. I have the "Baked Oatmeal" set, which seemed like one of the prettier shades to me. The medium shade (for all over eye lids) is a beautiful taupe color. The darkest shade (used to line/contour) is a nice, mocha/chocolate shade, and the lightest color (highlight) is a pearl-like color. All three shades are shimmery, but not too glittery- just the right amount of shimmer. The shades complement each other perfectly and are very easy to blend- I usually use them in the powder, dry form... I have also tried using it wet, and it looks very nice for more of an evening/nighttime look. You can use it dry, for more of a subtle everyday look, or wet. I use my own eyeshadow brushes with these, instead of the sponge applicator that is included. I use this almost everyday now...it has quickly become one of my favorite eye shadows. I am not a fan of all Physician's Formula cosmetics (esp. mascara), but I'm loving this eye shadow. Definitely worth a try.

The colors are great, easy to blend dry. I am Asian w/ skin that sometimes is harder for colors to show up on. Stays on all day (and I'm a sweaty girl). I like how it's shimmery but not glittery. I'm a professional and i don't want to be looking like I'm going out clubbing at 10 a.m. Packaging IS a bit bulky, but since I don't need to reapply, I leave it at home! I'm going to buy a few other colors to round out my collection haha.

I owned this product and loved it for awhile... but now that I've tried it again and am more experienced in makeup, I've revised this review.

PROS: Great, soft neutral colors and contains a decent amount of shadow that lasts awhile. Slightly more shimmer than a matte, but not as OTT as the PF Shimmerstrips.

CONS: My only complaint is that the powder is a little hard (which isn't really a problem if use it as a wet shadow, but can be a little annoying if applied dry).

Overall, a nice basic product but not HG.

I love these shades and the texture. Blends really well and is great for a natural look or glam/night look. The shadow stays on all day without wearing off. My only complaint would be that sometimes the product crumbles around the edges, but that's only happened a few times. Definitely recommend. I always get compliments and people asking me what I use!

I own Baked Oatmeal. It is quickly becoming one of my favorite eyeshadows. The darkest color is a chocolately golden brown, the medium is a silvery golden taupe, and the lightest is a pale golden beige. The powders are versatile and last for hours and hours. I have very pale skin, brown hair with auburn highlights, and brown eyes with gold tones. These colors bring out the best in my complexion.

I have this in Baked Oatmeal.
Dry - The powder feels almost scratchy on my skin. It is very sheer going on and it requires multiple layers. The 2 lighter colors read almost the same on my skin, an ashy white. It will stay put once you get everything in place, but I'm just not impressed.
Wet - This stuff is made to be used wet. The colors are much bolder and stay put. Especially the deep brown - which makes a beautiful liner.
I'm personally not a big fan of using my powder shadows wet, so I probably won't purchase anything else in this particular line. Still, as a wet shadow - great stuff.

I bought this three years ago when I was in New York, my shade is in Baked Sweets. I like the colours and when used wet you can wear them clubbing without worrying they'd smudge or worn off. I'm not a big fan of their packaging though, it's not very easy to carry in your cosmetic bag cuz it takes a lot of space. I'm a bit surprised I'm still keeping this one after moving around tons. Oh well, as one of my old memories of New York, I'd always keep this one.

i bought baked oatmeal and i don't apply it wet, so that's probably why i didn't achieve the complete pigmentation potential, but i still liked it. i felt like the shades complimented my brown eyes to a T, and the lighter shades are one my favorite highlighters to use on the brow bone. i could easily use any old white shadow to highlight, but the baked off white oatmeal shades are unique and very pretty. it actually makes you think they really were made from Italian tiles, as it says on the packaging. i love the shimmer in the eyeshadow and how all three shadows go perfectly with one another. i even use the darker brown shade to fill in my eyebrows. lol. by far, one of the best drugstore eyeshadows.

Shade: Baked Oatmeal
I decided to buy this after reading the reviews and thought I might as well try it. I just tested it not too long ago and I think it was fairly easy to apply. I didnt expect much pigment but that's alright because I wanted a netrual look. Also i tried doing a wet application on my hand and I didnt see much of a difference except that the overall finish was smoother. If I apply the medium colour with a HINTTTTTT of the darkest eyeshadow... it shows up better... which is more of a taupe color. Also I didnt take off the eyeshadow I had in the morning and I realized it complemented really nicely with it. My morning look was a neutral look with MAC bare canvas as my base, MAC e/s in sushi flower in my crease and a hint of highlight below the brow... so when i put oatmeal over it, it looked pretty nice and it had still went on natural. I like this and I think I will be buying Baked Smokes because the other shades were pretty much the same!
