Colorstay 16 Hour Eyeshadow

The Addictive palette is part of my everyday look, whether I use all four colors or even just the top two colors. I get compliments each time I use it. From my mother, a friend, and even a random cashier lady at the store.

I like this pallet a lot, the shades are really good for natural looks, it's easy to use, the colour stays on well on my eyes and for the price it's really good quality. I like all the colours and they all complement each other well, the pigmentation wasn't great but its not too bad either.

I love these colors! The addictive pallet is very neutral and is very light on the shimmer which is nice. I always use this with a primer though so I really don't know how long it stays on without it but with the primer it stays on for several hours. The colors I chose are a very natural shade so the vibrancy of it isn't alarming which is expected with the one I chose.

I totally recommend this!

I really wanted to like this palette as I’ve had great success with other ColorStay products. The eyeshadows had a velvety texture. There was little fallout either on my face, or when I dipped my brush into the product. I also appreciate there is a range of matte and satin shades. Unfortunately, the pigmentation was less than I had hoped. I really had to pack on the product to get much color payoff. I’m willing to concede the fact that this palette is very similar in color to my skin. It’s possible that an individual with a fairer complexion, with a heavier hand, will do well with this one. Still, one will tend to go through this palette fairly quickly.

The packaging is incredibly sleek. I can see not only the colors but the finishes from the window. The hard plastic feels solid in my hand. The clasp is firm. I have little fear of the palette opening up in my handbag. I question the layout of the shadows. The highlight shade contains the largest amount followed by the two medium shades for lid colors. The smallest amount is the darkest shade. For most people, the two medium colors will be used the most followed by the darkest shade. It would be most useful if one of those contained larger amounts and less for the highlighted shade.
