I first heard of these in a video from Lucy Garrick on Youtube where she recreated a Keira Knightly look with the Laura Mercier Metallic Eye Cream in Burnished Copper. At the time the Ebay seller I was eying (I ain't like customs/shipping prices of Nordstroms/Laura Mercier) only had the shade Gold, so I went for that one. I've since shamelessly purchased more shades.
The color reminds me very much of Woodwinked from MAC but Gold is a touch less yellow. It applies like a dream. I love that it doesn't dry too fast which gives me a chance to work with the product. I use it over a primer (I always use primer, no matter what) and it stays on all day, without creasing whatsoever. I also like layering it with powder shadows on top to give it more dimension, not that it really needs it.You only need a tiny little of this product in order to get an opaque finish. While some paint pots (like MAC or Maybelline) never quite give me an even finish, this is a breeze to use. I doesn't take much to make this product "work" so to speak.
This little tube retails for $22 USD and I think that it is well worth it. If you take a look at these lovely swatches from Karla Sugar I'm sure you now understand why I need/want them all.
