Long have I been searching for an eyeshadow the color of a newly minted penny, and this is the closet thing to it that I have found so far! It is a lovely pinky-copper with a semi-metallic sheen! ...

I love the shadestick, because its so well packaged. Making it into a stick was a genius idea. You can carry it anywhere and not have to worry about using a brush. The problem would be that it...

I agree with everything the previous reviewer said. Although this is a pretty color, it does not apply smoothly and creases like crazy. I have oily lids and this does nothing to prevent creasing....

I've been wanting to try a shadestick for some time now, so I purchased Penny because its a shade that can look nice on it's own. I really like it, it looks like a slightly metallic peachy/copper,...

Me: NC30. I have a hard time getting that "Glowy" e/s look - I can do brights and darks, but not lights - they tend to get muddy on my pigmented eyelids. However, I finally have found something...

This color is gorgeous. It makes my eyes pop! I wear it alone, on the lid with a brown eye liner. It's a beautiful smooth shimmer peachy/copper color that looks great on any skin tone.

This is a gorgeous copper (the color of a penny - literally). It is easy to use, b/c as a shade stick, you just draw it on and blend w/your finger. Flattering w/my hazel eyes and C3 skintone, it...

Beautiful color! It looks fantastic if you brush MAC shadow in Honey Lust all over your lid and then line your eyes with Penny. It's not garish or too shiny, just beautiful and rich looking.

Gorgeous shade. A cute little salesgirl in Tokyo convinced me to buy this; I am so glad that I listened to her. This is such a versatile color, it would work for every eye color and skin tone. ...

I like the color, its a true copper/apricot. Its very nice. Though I have a hard time getting it to show up on my eyes. Its a nice highlighter too. :D
