I got this as in a combination lip and eye palette, but I'm guessing these sell for about C$24 + tax by themselves in Canada (Clinique.ca). Bottom line: these eyeshadows suck. They go on very...

I think the thing with this eyeshadow is that you have to like a little bit of color showing, and that's exactly what I like. It doesn't have a lot of color when applied to the lid, but it gives...

The colors look pretty in the compact, and the packaging itself is very cute and non-bulky with a little mirror. However, when applied, they go on very sheer and are not very pigmented. Good if...

This colours look nicely in the pan, but they barely show up on my eyelids. Even if I apply a ton of shadow, you have to look closely to really see it.

Eh, it's okay. Not very intense on my lids, which was a real disappointment to me. I'm convinced that Clinique's eye shadows just aren't pigmented enough for me.

I love clinique but this is not one of the better shadows they have as it is very basic and dupable. I would describe the shades as followed- one is a plummy brown with a strong presence of greyish...

Well this was kind of a mistake. KIND of. While I love the shimmery purple taupe color, the light almost chalky lilac was just not a winner, and it's a shame that the size of the lighter color is...

I got this as part of a gift from a friend. The name of the product sort of bothers me because I see no "color surge" in this as another reviewer indicated. Inside the package is a soft lilac color...

This duo is very pretty--a chalky slightly shimmery lavender shade paired with a deep shimmery taupe. I'm PPP and find that this shadow offers a subtle but still lovely effect and emphasizes the...

I like these shades! I agree, it does take a lot of layering to get the lilac to show up, but I think the gorgeous darker shade makes up for it. On me, the darker shade is a purpley/taupey/brown...

well maybe I am wierd but this is one of my favorite duos. I had to at least try to come to it's rescue in ratings. I think it looks very pretty and the pigment is decent. I am a PPP so I can see...

I just received this in a gwp, and it's allright. I agree completely with those that said this has a lack of pigment. The two shades don't even look that much different from each other once on the...

I love the Color Surge Shadows. They are super silky, easy to blend and richly pigmented. There are several fomulas including matte and the soft shimmer. The soft shimmer shades are not nearly as...

I'm not too impressed with this duo. I did not buy them, it was a gift. There is no 'colour surge' in these colours! A total lack of intensity & pigmentation. The brown/taupe goes on much lighter...

This looked terrific through the lens of Irving Penn, who was responsible for Clinique's advertising campaign, but in reality both the brown and the purple are too sheer to matter. You'll need...

Well, I like it more than the rest of you! Am on my second of these duos. I am dark haired/eyed with fair skin and it is my favourite understated day wear shadow. The lilac is very pale but you...

Like all Clinique shadows this shadow is very good quality but I HATE the shades! The lady at the counter talked me into this one when I said I wanted a purple shadow. The purple in this duo had no...

Normally I absolutely love Clinique's eye shadow duos. I am a big champion of Clinique make-up (but not their 3-step, ick). However, Lilac Truffle was a disappointment. First of all, it is barely...

Got this duo in a swap, and while I LOVE the Colour Surge Eye shadows, I did not like these colors! The brown was ok, but the "Lilac" (I guess that's what the purple would be) just didn't show up...
