Clionadh Lofty, Bon Bon, Panacea, Light Chaser Eyeshadows Reviews & Swatches

Lofty

Clionadh Lofty Duochrome Eyeshadow ($5.25 for 0.06 oz.) is a light-medium lavender with subtle, warmer pink undertones and cooler, blue-to-violet shimmer that gave it a metallic finish. The texture was soft, more loosely-pressed but not to the point where it was overly fragile, and it “melted” slightly after being applied to bare skin. It had opaque pigmentation in a single layer, which lasted nicely for eight and a half hours before showing signs of fading.

There do not appear to be any specific claims made for the brand's regular eyeshadow range, so being held to typical industry claims (as well as looking at the brand swatches), I'd expect rich pigmentation along with being blendable. The brand has an assortment of finishes, and the price point varies from finish to finish and has some variance within finish as well, but they tend to range from $6.00 CAD to $8.00 CAD, which converts to around $5.00 to $7.00 USD.

The more shimmery formulas were similar; they tended to be dense, lightly creamy, and blendable with excellent pigmentation and minimal chance of fallout. Some of the more sparkly shades felt more loosely-pressed while a few metallics were more emollient to the touch. They typically wore between eight and eight and a half hours on me before fading visibly (without primer).

Light Chaser

Clionadh Light Chaser Metallic Eyeshadow ($5.00 for 0.05 oz.) is a light, silvery mauve with neutral-to-warm undertones and warmer, gold and mauve shimmer. It seemed less like a duochrome and more like something with contrasting shimmer. It had nearly opaque color coverage in a single layer, which was buildable to full coverage with a second layer. The consistency was lightly creamy, smooth, and blendable without being too loosely nor too firmly pressed into the pan. It lasted well for eight hours before fading a bit.
