Clionadh Carving & Ciel Glitter Multichrome Eyeshadows Reviews & Swatches

Carving

Clionadh Carving Glitter Multichrome Eyeshadow ($7.50 for 0.05 oz.) has a nearly transparent base chocked full of sparkle and finer shimmer that shifted from warmer plum to purple to aqua to mint green. Per the brand, it has a “sheer, grungy, light brown base with medium-large glitter particles that shift from turquoise-indigo-violet-pink.” At a glance, it does have a slightly warmer, plummy brown base at a lot of angles–it looks cooler, almost pinkish and more plum than brown when the pink/purple part of the shift is an action and darker, more like a cooler-toned brown with the shift is more blue/green.

The texture was smooth, more emollient but thin and seemed to have less to it than most shades in the range. Unlike other shades in the same formula, this had more medium coverage regardless of application–dry brush, fingertip, or dampened brush–that didn’t build up much beyond that. I could see it looking a bit lighter/darker depending one’s natural skin tone as a result.

As is the case with this formula, it was designed to be applied with a fingertip or a dampened brush, which were the best methods to achieve even coverage with little to no fallout. A dry brush was very workable but had some fallout during the initial application. It wore well for eight and a half hours before fading visibly on me.

Formula Overview

$8.00/0.05 oz. - $160.00 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to "apply relatively easy to the lid when patted on with a finger," but for "maximum longevity and intensity, apply over a set primer" or a "tacky base" for "larger-particle glitters." The brand goes on to stay that this formula can be applied with "your finger or a shader brush sprayed with setting spray" and then patted onto the lid. They also warn not to "dig" one's brush as they are "more delicate" in texture.

The base pigmentation varied from shade to shade, and the brand uses different particle sizes throughout the range, so some are finer and more pigmented and others may be more sparkly with a sheerer base. Keep in mind, the base being sheerer doesn't equate to a sheerer end product; the actual eyeshadows often appeared mostly opaque to opaque due to how packed they are with shimmer/sparkle--but it depended on the angle.

They end up being a bit more like traditional eyeshadow, since the bases have various colors (not black or transparent) with multichromatic shifts that varied from more intense to subtler. I felt like they were "easier" to use than the Jewelled Multichromes, especially if you're someone who uses more than a few shades at a time, though they have less of a high-shine finish and more of a twinkling/sparkling finish.

The texture was more loosely-pressed--definitely "delicate" as indicated by the brand--and worked best by patting or pressing onto the lid with a fingertip or a wet brush. They're still quite usable with a dry brush but definitely use a denser brush and a gentle pressing motion to pick up product. The texture itself was very soft, almost silky, and finely-milled; for has twinkling as the finish was, Clionadh's idea of "glitter" is more like fine sparkle.

The big difference with this formula is that the sheerer base makes them easier to sheer out for an all-over wash of color on the lid or diffused on the brow bone, but they can also be pressed into place without heavy blending for an intense, spotlight effect.

While setting spray or glitter glue would help to maximize longevity (by minimizing fallout over time), there was only light some fallout over time when pressed onto the lid with a fingertip and slight fallout applied with a dampened brush (wet with water) over eight to nine hours. The sparkles were finer and had better adhesion to bare skin, so the formula didn't need the most intense solution to minimize fallout in my experience.

Ciel

Clionadh Ciel Glitter Multichrome Eyeshadow ($7.50 for 0.05 oz.) is a brighter, sky blue base with shimmer and sparkle that shifted from gold to greenish-gold to greenish-aqua. Per the brand, it has a “semi-pigmented blue base with large glitter particles that shift from gold-green-blue.” The description by the brand was accurate; it had more dimension at all angles as the shimmer contrasted quite a lot with the base.

The texture was soft, more loosely-pressed but was still lightly creamy, so the product adhered well to bare skin with very minimal fallout during application (even with a dry brush, which wasn’t recommended). It had nearly opaque pigmentation that applied with a dry brush and more opaque coverage applied with a fingertip or a dampened brush. It stayed on nicely for nine hours before fading noticeably.
