Packaging:

I like it. It looks expensive to me! lol. It's a pretty basic glass jar. It reminds of a lot of the Maybelline Dream Mousse Concealer jars. They are pretty much the same except the base of the tattoo jar might be a tad bigger. Also the product does not go all the way down, it just goes down to where the lid is completely screwed.

Texture:

Maybelline says it's a cream gel eyeshadow. I see the cream part but I don't see the gel part. What am I missing! Anyways, the texture is soft and creamy and not grainy at all. They all have a beautiful shimmer to them, although it seems like Painted Purple has a bit less.

Pigmentation:

These thing are so pigmented. I was skeptical at first because most cream shadows I've had look nice in the pot but once they are swatched they disappear! This didn't happen with these. As you can see above they swatch pretty much the same as what's in the pot. The only one I had a problem with was Painted Purple, you have to pack on the color. Dab it not sweep it and you are good to go.

Lasting Power:

So there were 2 tests involved in this. First I wore them from 9am to 11pm. That's 14hours. I didn't stay in doors either. I was out and about the whole day and it was a little hot outside too. I did have UDPP under so I said hmm maybe that contributed to the lasting power. Then I did the swatches, I took the picture and I wiped of the colors. The next night, as you can see above, you could still see the colors! Imagine if I wouldn't have wiped them off and no there wasn't UDPP under them. I call that amazing lasting power. Also, I'm going to add that I had trouble getting off my eyelid. Meaning is was really stuck on there! Not a bad thing though.

★Overall★
I highly recommend these shadows. They aren't expensive, especially for the awesomeness of a product that it is. You can also use them in different ways, such as alone, as a base, and as eyeliner! They last long and are gorgeous! There are 6 more shades to choose from, and they are all just as gorgeous. If you have a problem with pigmentation then try the tip I gave and you are good to go! So I definitely say go get yourself some of these shadows! You won't regret it.

I give them:
