Lucent Cream Shadow (010, Jupiter)

I love these Moira shadows! I adore bright and shiny eye color but it’s hard to find ones that don’t have highly toxic or irritating ingredients. These had such a good EWG rating that I had to try them. I’ve been exceptionally happy with all of the colors I’ve purchased (hue, texture, shimmer, application, blendability, and staying power) so far except the silver “starlight” (see note below.)Note about “starlight” (silver): The “starlight” color is flaky and difficult to apply. It’s ok for a little added shimmer but doesn’t sit well as a liner or shadow like the others do.

So pretty! Fine glitter. Not childish.

I love the quality of this eyeshadow. Reminds me of the consistency of colourpop super shock shadows. The color Jupiter is full of tiny iridescent glitter sparkles. It is quit sheer in the base, but Imparts a lovely sparkle to my lids as a finishing touch to a simple makeup look.

It’s pretty shimmery, not subtle, but being like a tan color it works for every day. I’ve only used it without primer or other color under it when I was in a hurry and it stayed on pretty well. Would probably look even better with a base under it. Moira is such and underrated brand. I have like 15 huge totes filled with high end and drugstore makeup so I feel like I am somewhat of a good judge on makeup, ha.

This is lovely shadow. It does shed a bit, but the color and formula are otherwise beautiful.

It’s nice, but the longevity could be better.

This is shimmery, light, sheer, and reminds me of ethereal fairy dust in a Walt Disney movie. Be aware that it is cool toned with sparkles of blues and lavenders and if you have yellow or olive skin it will likely reflect green. It’s tough to catch that from the ad but that’s the way it is these days. It does transfer but that’s going to be with any shimmer/glitter product.

So I was really excited to try this cream eye shadow because it was affordable and they had a nice range, when I received the eye shadow the texture did not look like a cream but looks can be deceiving sometimes. I touched the shadow and it was not a cream, but I told myself maybe its this formula and it will still perform well. It applied powdery and sheer, if you try to blend it becomes a bit patchy and its hard to pack in the color to get opacity. Also you are left with a ton of fall out, which its one of the main reasons I want to try. It also creases, I tried it with my finger and a brush. I will try their other cream formula to see if its better.
