Punky Blues Beauty
-01.16.13
Quick Take: portable, soft, vibrant, pigmented
My mom bought me the "Punky Blues" I was skeptical cause I have BLUE eyes already. But I've gotten lots of compliments today on it. so I'm happy. The Shadow is very silky, soft and blendable. Its very vibrant colors and very little fall out.

satiny smooth blendable bright
-12.29.12
purchased the tropicana and all 3 colors were perfect. The yellow was like mango color and different from the typical yellows and the green was lime sprite color. This magenta is the most luminizing of the 3 and brings out eyes when I put them in the crease. Good purchase if you don'y have these colors

love the colors! They are not sheer at all. The pigmentation is great, last at least 8 hrs on my eyes. The texture is silky and the shadows are loose.

These are great eyeshadows. They are highly pigmented, go on smooth, and blend easily. I got the Snow Shadow trio, and the colors are beautiful. The white is pearly, and it;s the most pigmented white shadow I've come across. The middle shade is more of a frosty blue-grey, and the left is dark navy blue. The only thing I didn't quite like is that there is no neutral base color to blend up to your brow bone. The middle color is too dark and the white is too light, but I have very fair skin. But it doesn't really bother me that much. I'm going to buy another set as soon as I can.

Quick Take: good value
I am picky once it comes to eyeshadow. They are just perfect for everyday even those colorful trios because they are really low key and pretty. I am ready to collect them all.

Snow Shadow is blue, not grey
-09.07.12
I ordered this thinking the colors were dark blue, grey, and white. They are actually dark blue, light blue (straight out of an 80s music video), and white. I tried it out, and it just looked ridiculous. Returning.

Silky smooth formula, soft refined colors
-08.10.12
Quick Take: portable, good value, silky, blendable
These shadows are so soft and smooth and apply without fallout. They are softer in color, so don't expect bold eye looks from these palettes, however the palettes are thoughfully composed so every color works with the other.
I have two: Pink Sands and Fire (have included swatches below over eyeshadow primer). Pink sands is great for an everyday neutral office look, while fire is great for a night-time more dramatic look.
In my opinion these shadows need a primer in order to show their true beauty and last a decent amount of time. With no primer I only get a couple hours of wear (but I think that is due to the softer formula). With primer I have no wear issues and they last all day.

Silky smooth
-07.02.12
I got the color strata, which is the neutral pallete. The other colors looked a bit wild execpt for the smoky black. Overall, the pigment was fantastic, no fall outs, easy blending, brush and applicator inlcuded were good quality. Slight shimmer not overload. Good for work. One down side: color combo is a bit boring.

Quick Take: portable, good value, buttery, smooth
Smooth, buttery texture, easy to apply and build, shimmer without being frosty or glittery. Basically the perfect eyeshadow formula! My favorites are Opera, Pink Sands, Jungle, and Tropicalia.

Fun shadows
-04.06.12
Quick Take: portable, good value, blendable, pigmented
I have this in OR302 - Fire and I really like it. My favorite color on the palate is the ash grey. These shadows have a really nice smooth texture and are quite pigmented. I have tried the other colors as well and they do show up on a lot skin tones even darker skint ones too! They blend well, come in a pretty good variety of colors and are easy to take with you. I would definitely recommend these to anyone.

such a Shisedio disappointment!
-02.29.12
Quick Take: good value
I was so greatly looking forward to buying these palettes because of the color ranges and the soft silky butter-like texture! I ended up buying four palettes: BR304/307 - STRATA (the number differs between instores and online), GY901 - SNOW SHADOW, RD711 - PINK SANDS, VI308 - BOUQUET. The colors are amazing but the power was horrific. After applying I could instantly see it begin to fade. Within one hour the color completely vanished! Nothing remained but the terrible black crease that would form as all the powder gathered. It was awful! Even when I tried applying primers, nothing helped. Plus I think that a good shadow should last some bit even without primer. Such a shame the colors are magnificent. I'll stick with their cream shadows, they last longer and crease less!

-12.30.11
Quick Take: portable, good value, pigmented, no fallout, blendable, perfect shimmer
These shadows are awesome. They blend easily, are highly pigmented, no fallout at all, and the colors are amazing. I purchased this trio in "snow shadow" and it's amazing. The shadows are the perfect amount of glimmer and so easy to layer layer layer.
The shadows are a bit expensive, but totally worth it. I will be purchasing another trio (or 2!) more appropriate for daytime use.
If you are unsure about the colors shown, please check out Shiseido's website. They have more accurate images of these colors. I've always loved Shiseido's skincare line, but now I'm in love with their makeup line too!

OMG how I love this
-12.15.11
I got Snow Shadow, and it's simply amazing. Finally a pallete that can finally stand alone without any tweaking by other shadows. Finish and pigment are amazing! I am purchasing Strata right now!

A bit too shimmery
-11.14.11
I usually use Make Up For Ever shadow and decided to try something new. Compared to Make Up For Ever, the Shiseido is definitely more muted and too shimmery for my liking. I use a primer and the make up stays on for the day but doesn't have the same type of dramatic effect.

-11.06.11
Quick Take: portable, good value, highly pigmented, saturated, blends easily, silky
I am very impressed with the quality of this eyeshadow. I am always on a hunt for a great eyeshadow and I think I just found it! I got mine in Snow GY901. The color payoff is excellent. The colors are rich, highly pigmented and blendable. The texture is so silky, it's almost creamy. It's really easy to apply, goes on very smooth. It's shimmery but not over the top, so it looks expensive and glamorous, not cheep. I am very happy with my purchase, I made a great choice!

I have the Punky Blues trio -- and it has such pretty colours! my skin is brown, and a lot of eye shadows dont show up on my skin-- this is not the case with this trio. Bold and bright the colour stands out! My only qualm is that it doesnt last the day! You definitely will need an eye primer to make it stick. And for the price i would expect it to have some staying power. overall a decent product but not one i would repurchase

Quick Take: portable, good value
This is the first purchase I've ever made from this line and I am wondering what in the world has taken me so long? I absolutely love everything about this eyeshadow set (I bought Snow Shadow). I love the texture and the ease of application. The colors stay true all day long (even all night when I accidentally fell asleep with my make up on). I cannot say enough good things about it. Will be purchasing more eyeshadow sets and will definitely venture out into other things from the line.

Quick Take: good value, expensive but worth it
I ADORE this eyeshadow! It goes on smoothly, has a nice shimmer, colors are perfect and easily blendable with the provided brushes, and it has good staying power! I am hooked and want to purchase them all! I ordered Voyage for a neutral look and I love this gold/brown/cream combo for my golden brown eyes!
