Marc Jacobs Beauty See-Quins Glam Glitter Eyeshadow
What it is: A collection of limited-edition glitter eyeshadows from Marc Jacobs Beauty.
The range of six shades, which is part of the larger Marc Jacobs Beauty holiday collection, was inspired by the “anything-goes esthetic from the Mod Era,” according to the brand materials.
The “sequin-finish” eyeshadows are created using a “demi-pressed” process to preserve the colour pigments in each shade, so the product really pops on eyelids once applied. Each shadow can be used as an intense glitter, or can be blended out for a “soft wash” of sparkle.
What we say: Our tester fell fast for these sparkly eyeshadow pots.
The formula can easily be applied with a fingertip or brush and gives lids an instant dose of shimmer and shine. Applied lightly to bare lids, the product provides a pretty wash of colour. Or, layered over another eyeshadow, or on a sticky primer, it gives eyes a bold, party-ready look.
While the formula did crease throughout the day without a primer, it was easy to quickly blend back to a smooth, crease-free finish. The formula stays in place, doesn’t melt around the eye area and the glitter doesn’t migrate.
Our tester’s favourite shades were Flashlight, an icy opal hue that instantly brightened lids, and Copperazi, a bold copper hue that looks very “fashion” and fun.
