Estee Lauder's latest release is another addition to the Pure Colour line - meet Stay-On Shadow Paints, a new generation of cream eyeshadow technology. Claiming 12 hour wear without fading or transfer, these little pots of goodness come in 8 shades and can be built up from a sheer wash to more intense depth.
Clockwise from top: Pink Zinc, Chained, Neon Fuscia |

Pink Zinc, 8 hours after application |
As you may have read in the past, my super-oily eyelids often crease cream eyeshadows within an hour of application. I can't get the full 12 hours out of the Shadow Paints without primer, but I do get a good 10 hours before creases start to form - which is an absolute record for me, and in my eyes makes for seriously impressive performance.
Overall, I'm seriously impressed with these and I rather think I'll be making a dent into them in the spring. I also can't help but notice that Pink Zinc is a little bit of a dupe for Chanel's Illusion d'Ombre in Emerveillé, another favourite I've been using a fair bit this year.
Find them online and at Estee Lauder counters and concessions now, where they'll cost you £19 each.

This release seems to come along maybe riding on the popularity of Maybelline Color Tattoo. I wonder if that's the reason for this new product...
ReplyDeleteI've not tried the Maybelline Color Tattoo shadows - but will do if they seem similar!
DeleteThis look and sound amazing. Definitely going to be checking these out. x
ReplyDeleteGlad you like! I'm lusting after the silvery one and the black one now, so useful for an easy smoky look...
