little white truths

Above and below, I've swatched the product lightly and more heavily on my hand. 

It's not super pigmented so it's buildable, which I like for a bright colour like purple (it's hard not to overdo products that have heaps of pigment - for me anyway!).

Verdict

This isn't a bad product for $12. It's not the most pigmented shadow I own, but as mentioned, I reckon that can be a good thing when it comes to brighter colours.

I've had a look online and the eyeshadow range from S&F looks pretty good - the colours are striking and the little pots are handy and travel well. (Loose products are great because you can't drop and smash them - they're already 'smashed'!)

The formula is ok - not great, not bad - and pretty good for the price. If you want some bright, seasonal colours but don't want to pay the proverbial arm/leg for them, these are a good option. The pot will last for ages; while I couldn't see a shelf-life marked, I'd expect it to last you for around 24 months (though you might want to confirm that with the company).

While not super blendable, the shadow is easy enough to work with and wears well. I haven't had product fall-out issues, but I've been applying it wet to my eyes so I don't have to layer it so much to get the colour I want, and I think that makes a difference in terms of fall-out.

Overall, decent products for the price.
