5/30/2023 0 Comments Tales of all time palette loracI blended Mauve into the crease and applied it on the inner/outermost parts of my lid.Overall, the look is fine but it’s not what I wanted. Last but not least, Deep Purple just looked black when smudged out on the lower lash line. Mauve and Nude would not stick to the inner corners of my eyes. As I mentioned above, Champagne lost all of its sparkle and shine throughout the day. They also disappear throughout the day and the shadow ends up looking very lackluster.įrom a distance, this look is pretty but it has its issues. The metallic shade, Champagne, has a lot of shimmer particles and they get everywhere.This has always been an issue with Lorac metallics but even the mattes in this palette wouldn’t stick as well as I wanted them to. For some reason, these shadows did not want to stick to the inner part of my eye.I’m clearly not a person of color but I think anybody with deeper skin than mine would struggle to make a lot of these shades work. All of these shadows are pigmented but they tend to be on the lighter side.They either become a muddy mess OR they’re so opaque that they cancel out whatever shade they’re on top of. I love to mix my eyeshadows and create my own duochrome shades but that’s impossible with this formula. Issue four, the metallic shades do not play well together. They caked up around my inner corner regardless of if I used them wet or dry. I’ve had this same problem with Morphe eyeshadows. ![]() If I used a wet brush, patchiness wasn’t an issue but they would cake up and look awful. Issue three, quite a few of the metallics were patchy and took a lot of building up. I tried using my finger, a wet brush and a dry brush but I just couldn’t get them to be as intense as I wanted. Issue two, these shadows look nowhere near as intense on the eyes as they do in swatches. I checked the ingredients and they contain extracts of lemon peel, cucumber, parsley, etc so I’m assuming that I’m sensitive to one of the natural ingredients. The irritation did dissipate pretty quickly but I’m sensitive to something in this formula. If any fallout gets in my eyes, it burns like crazy. ![]() It doesn’t burn my eyelids or the skin around my eyes but my actual eyeballs. Issue one, this formula burns my eyeballs. That means half of this palette is unusable for me.
