Yves Saint Laurent PURE CHROMATICS - 4 Wet & Dry Eye Shadows
What it is:Water-activated eye shadow palettes in colors that transform into a radiant, intense, metallic finish.What it does:These eye shadows can be used dry, like a traditional eye shadow, for a subtle shimmering effect, or wet, for a full-intensity pigment metallic finish. These remarkable properties give everyone the freedom to create any kind of eye look from simple to dramatic in seconds.What else you need to know:Yves Saint Laurent labs have invented the "water process" Pure Chromatics eye shadow. This process uses water, in place of a solvent, to develop the formula. Once pigments are mixed with water, dry, pure-pigmented powders are left with a very high level of shimmer.Size: 0.18 oz

Review 1 for PURE CHROMATICS - 4 Wet & Dry Eye Shadows
Below Average
-04.30.13
Quick Take: worthless
I have tried better eye shadows. This is definitely not worth the price. They are not very pigmented. Nor do they apply very well, I have to literally SCRAPE it with my brush or the applicator in order to get a decent amount on.

Best eyeshadow money can buy
-04.13.13
Quick Take: portable, good value
The colors are so beautiful and the shimmer/glitter is so beautiful and just looks expensive. Not like the glitter that I see on the commercials for Almay wet dry eyeshadow...ick looks too obvious. Bought this for a friend and she loved it! I have one too and hope to be able to buy more of these in the future.

Quick Take: portable
Humm.. I am not sure I thought this product was going to be amazing. I think the concept is innovating as well. Don't take me wrong the pigmentation is good, the quality is excellent. I don't think I like the colors in it. It didn't do a lot for my eyes. The brushes are tiny and its hard to use.

Review 9 for PURE CHROMATICS - 4 Wet & Dry Eye Shadows
The best wet and dry eye shadow
-01.14.13
This is my 3rd YSL wet and dry pure chromatics eye shadow. I love this color, it looks much prettier and elegant than the suntan shade look from the pic. I have always been impressed by the texture whatever in wet or dry way. YSL eye shadow is the most pigmetted ones.

Stunning!!!
-01.12.13
I recently bought this in the store. I was almost convinced to not buy it because of the price, but once I was shown the colors when water was added they were bold and beautiful. There is no need to blend in any other colors when wearing this eyeshadow. You can simply wear it alone. I have received many compliments on this eyeshadow palette. It's definitely worth the cost and the quality is great too!

Quick Take: expensive but good quality
These shadows are smooth and easy to blend. I am pale with red hair and these colors are really flattering. The quality is on par with my Chanel quads as well.

Review 13 for PURE CHROMATICS - 4 Wet & Dry Eye Shadows
#19 Chromatics
-01.04.13
I wanted to love these shadows, and for the price, unless I loved them they were going back. Unfortunately they were not what I wanted. A lot of shimmer, gorgeous color in the palatte, but did not carry over when used. The shimmer got everywhere, the color was almost translucent when applied. Not a win, and I wanted to love them.

Perfect shimmer
-01.02.13
Quick Take: portable, good value
I purchased this on a whim in the store. (COLOR 08 - sandy gold/ shimmery pearl/ rich gold/ golden green)
The golden green actually looks like beautiful golden grey in person. I have used this almost everyday since I purchased this and I am really not an eye shadow girl normally. It has incredible staying power and looks very shimmery in the light which I love! I have usedut wet and dry and both ways it works amazing!

Review 16 for PURE CHROMATICS - 4 Wet & Dry Eye Shadows
-01.02.13
Quick Take: portable, good value
Among the four colors, except the beige one, everything else are very pigmented & matte. The beige one is great as a base color. I am not very good at applying dark colors and wanted to try this pallet as a start. For work, I use dark brown as a base, black / charcoal as eye liner. I believe I'll use more than other pallets from now on.

Stays, blends better than many blends

Love YSL for flattering colors. Even dry, these shadows stick and blend better than other brands that don't have as fine a grind of the pigments. Work well on sensitive skin/eyes.

Review 20 for PURE CHROMATICS - 4 Wet & Dry Eye Shadows
Yves Saint Laurent Pure Chromatics No. 19
-12.18.12
Quick Take: portable
I bought this instead of the Dior Incognito palette and I am very glad I did so. This has been such a joy to play with wet or dry. The colors in the 19 palette are quite breathtaking and sophisticated. They mix very well together too. I have tan yellow toned skin so color is very important. I also adore shimmer; as it looks good on my Mexican colored skin. This palette has definitely delivered shimmer and long lasting wearability. I usually adore the dior palettes for their shimmer and well coordinated colors but since buying this I will definitely be buying more YSL!
