This eyeshadow is so easy to apply and it's such a nice soft pink w/ shimmer. It doesn't clump up like other liqued or mousse shadows I've tryed. I want to go back and get the gray color.

Gorgeous fluid eyeshadow! A little goes a long ways and it lasts for ages!! Anyways, application of a subtle amount on both lids gives a glisten of pink shimmer and a gorgeous sheen. When the lights gleams on the lids, it gives that luminous look which is seemingly gorgeous! Love love! If you are going for a natural look and you are one of those one the go type of women, then this is at great buy even if it is $30. It does last long on lids and doesn't smear since it is water-resistant and can mix and blend well with many eyeshadows.

i love this colour, it dosnt come out as bright as it looks in the tube its quite pale, but i think it would suit just about anybody. it goes on easily and blends in with no problems and also blends in with other eyeshadows powdery and liquid. it super shimmery it really reflects the light more than any-other ive used so far and i use it every-time i go out as i think its just the best you can get, it lasts ages as you dont need allot and ive had mine for over a year now so it dosnt affect the quality, it is definitely worth the money.

This looks very nice on my fair complexion. If you are very fair, this pale pink really doesn't show up as much color, just a bit of a sparkle. Stays on all day (for me) and I have oily eyelids. I plan on purchasing more colors!

I love the color and I also like the concept of liquid eyeshadow. I like how you can adjust the color to your taste without looking like you have too much make up on. Good for the lovely, sheer look. My only gripe is the price and the expiration date. It says you have to use it all up within 6 months after you open the product....

After passing these up several times, i decided to take the plunge and try one. I always hesitated because i've tried other liquid shadows with less-than-desireable results, i.e., not easy to blend, cakey, etc. Chanel's is very easy to apply and it blends nicely with powder shadows. It doesn't look caked on either. The color is much lighter on my lids than it looks in the tube. Although the SA assured me that this product would not crease, i experienced a little bit of creasing after several hours of wear (probably 6 to 8 hours), which is why i only gave it a four, plus the cost is somewhat prohibitive ($31). But, i like it a lot - enough to add another color or 2 to my collection!

I really love the sand and source fluid shadows, that i had to get some more. This is also part of the summer 2004 collection, these liquid shadows are similiar to the Sue Devitt clear water shadows. The chanel comes in a frosted clear bottle that looks like a narrow nailpolish bottle with a wand applicator. Shake it up and apply directly to lid. Fountain is a medium shimmery pink in the tube but much less color appears on the lid, almost a soft pale pinkwith silver shimmer. Works well as a base or on its own. Under eyeshadow, i see shimmer not color. Although i liked this color i prefer my other two to this one and dont really see a need for this one since the effect is so similiar when applied sheerly. This lasted all day with the absolute tiniest, can barely see, but really looking hard crease after 8 hours including a sweaty workout. Cost $30 which is alot. Hopefully this wont evaporate like the SD ones. i will update if i notice that. But so far so good. I have had them since summer of 2004 and so far no evaporation. I like this color but i prefer sand and source!

It's by far one of the best eyeshadows I've invested in. The pink colour is very pale, though and I don't know how many layers you need to apply to get a truly pink colour, but pale is very nice! It lasts almost all day and it looks great with the shimmer! It does cost quite a bit, but since I haven't found an eyeshadow like this one yet the prize is ok.

Chanel has perfected the fluid eyeshadow concept. I have a few of the Sue Devitt liquid eyeshadows and while they are nice, the quality, colors, and packaging can't hold a candle to Chanel. This eyeshadow is more luminescent and sheer, almost pearl-like in sheen. The color is a beautiful baby pink-goes excellent with any skin tone. Lasts on my lids better than powders or creams w/o creasing or fading AT ALL. I'm going to buy these in as many colors as I can.

Sometimes Chanel misses the mark with gimmicks (to wit, their recent Levres Impressions) but with these fluid eyeshadows, they were right on. The clerk said there was water in the solution (hence you always shake them first ... they settle while they sit) ... and they're easy to remove. Easy to remove but stay put on your lids. They're not what I call glittery but more of an iridescent sheen (my preference). You can paint them directly on for a more solid effect or pat around with your fingers to haze them out. They even look good on my lids (I'm 50) without showing wrinkles. I'm an MMM, with neutral warm-toned Type IV/V skin, wearing MAC NW25 without a tan; very dark brown hair, very dark brown eyes with a gray ring around the iris. Being so happy with the Bay (50), the Sand (60), and the Source (40), I just had to run get the others. There was some problem with the Glacier and I think no more will be available (too bad as I know the contrast of iced sky blue would have been a terrific look with my brown eyes). Today I got my hands on the Fountain (20) and the Bayou (30). *NOTE* that the Fountain looks lavender on every online swatch I've seen ... but it's pink. Pink in the bottle and pink on your skin. But oh what a gorgeous pink ... it looks like cool pastel pink icing. This is perfect under my brows or on my lids just above liner to open my eyes. Can't you just imagine this with a tan? Wipe it down if wearing for day ... keep it solid for a dressy evening occasion. Now ... if they'd just make a chocolate. Love the applicator, too.

This is a super-shimmery pale pink powder in a clear liquid base. Shake up, dab on lipgloss style with the enclosed sponge applicator, and it's dry in seconds. A thick layer gives a solid shimmery creamy look, like a shimmer cream crayon. A thin layer gives a sheer sparkly effect, which with this shade looks like a clear gloss on me. This one is great for a simple everyday look, and so quick to apply. It's also pretty with the Bay (peach) shade in the crease for a rosy glowing look.
