Wish it lasted longer

While I love the color pay off and the creamy texture of this eyeshadow I am disappointed with its wear time. After a few hours it looks terribly creased, something I never have an issue with while using other eyeshadows.

Creases in under an hour

'That's Cute' has been so disappointing. I have hooded eyes, but usually don't have a noticeable problem with creasing. This pink doesn't show up very metallic or anywhere near as pretty as it is in the pan. Even with an eyeshadow primer this is a mess in under an hour. If you like the colour, get the Drawn This Way eyeliner in 'You up?' instead (though that doesn't last in the waterline on my watery eyes but is stunning on the lid all day long) I also have the eyeshadow in the shade...

metallic rather than sparkle. 💖

I PAID FOR ITEM MYSELF!!! i tried this shadow with eye primer on one side and the other without, as i do have oily lids. it did crease on the without primer side but help up will on the with primer side. the pigment is intense and there is actually zero fallout when applying, as it is cream to powder. i do love the formula and am considering purchasing another shade. the one thing i took a star off for was the packaging. while cute, i do have dexterity issues and it isn’t the easiest to...

Wears off instantly.

I purchased the pink (that’s cute) and purple/blue duochrome (mood swing). I watched multiple videos to see how it wore on all different skin types. The rebrand is a huge letdown. It was slapped together which is why the products crumble and don’t last. Not even 30 minutes later with eye primer and concealer, which I always wear for consistent application, it is smearing off. I do not have oily lids. I have used palettes from Natasha Denona, Lisa Elridge, Charlotte Tilbury, as well VB Kajal...

Love "Cancelled" being spelled correctly

'Cancelled' is great! It's metallic and while it does crease on my hooded eyes, it isn't to the point where it removes all of the eyeshadow to show my eyelid. The creased areas instead just appears more matte rather than metallic.

Beautiful shimmer, super pigmented, easy to blend

It has gorgeous pigmentation and blends beautifully for an effortless eye look. The shimmer catches the light perfectly and wears well throughout the day.

Creases, not worth it.

Love the shades but I had this on for maybe an hour and it was already creased and I used primer and powder.

Stellar

Hate that I love this so much. I love everything about it. The packaging is so cute and fun and also good quality. The eyeshadow itself is INCREDIBLE. Such smooth formulation and gorgeous pigmentation. Gives a glassy/wet look which I love. Easy to build. Similar to urban decay space cowboy, but the color of this is less orange and the formula is much softer/silkier. I’m honestly obsessed and would recommend to anyone.

Gorgeous but possible packaging issue

Gorgeous product. Looks amazing on. Incredibly fun packaging. Only issue is when I opened it for the first time the pigment was raised above the pan and the lid which slides open was smudging it around. I went to slide it closed and the entire pigment fell right out of the pan!

Sad Star

I felt it’s was nice when i applied it in the morning but it just moved all over the place by the end of the day I’m kinda sad because I will be returning this I was so excited but I’m now disappointed

EverydayJessica Verified Nov 06, 2026

Disappointed

Packing is really so cute. I picked up spicy and shady. Before applying I primed my eyes and the shadow was ceasing and gone within an hour. I have never experienced a shadow that's fades/disappears like that. Really wanted to love but they went back.

Gorgeous and Low-Effort

This shadow is amazing! It goes on so smooth and the duochrome is such a low-effort, high-effect look! I love it! No creasing or fallout for this oily girl.
