LORAC Noir PRO Palette Review & Swatches
Noir
LORAC Noir Pro Palette (2020) ($35.00 for 0.56 oz.) includes 18 eyeshadows with six mattes and 12 shimmery shades. The majority of the eyeshadows had semi-opaque to opaque pigmentation, were blendable, and lasted between seven and eight hours. The mattes tended to be more buildable and had some fallout due to being very soft, though they were very finely-milled and more substantial than some of the later Pro releases (like the Megas). Many of the shimmers were particularly nice to use, though, as they were pigmented, creamy, and had great adhesion that was flattering on the skin.

Ecru
Ecru is a very light yellowish beige with a satin finish. It had barely-there, ultra-fine pearl woven throughout the eyeshadow, but the lightly powdery texture came through more noticeably on my skin and looked less shimmery in action. It had semi-opaque, buildable pigmentation that wore well for seven hours on me.

Formula Overview
-
In 2020, the brand reformulated their PRO eyeshadows and released new palettes (and new shades, however new-new they might be). The formula is supposed to be "highly pigmented" that "last[s] without creasing" and "blend[s] effortlessly." Each eyeshadow can also be removed from its respective palette--there's an included tool to do so--to rearrange the palette or depot (nice touch!).
The mattes felt less thin and were not quite as dry as the prior formula--a bit silkier--though the matte eyeshadows are still lightly to moderately powdery with light fallout but are blendable. I think it's a formula more suitable to someone who tends to prefer buildable coverage and a little more muted color.
The shimmers were slightly creamier, smooth, and blendable with higher color coverage that had good adherence to bare skin. They seemed a little thicker than the prior formula, which I think gave them better hold.
For the most part, they were easy to use with most shades lasting between seven and eight hours, which is average, so the longevity wasn't any better/worse than most eyeshadows on the market (including the prior formula).

Soft Taupe
Soft Taupe is a light brown with subtle, warm undertones and a matte finish. It had semi-opaque color payoff that was buildable to mostly opaque coverage. The texture was soft, smooth, and blendable but somewhat powdery, so there was a bit of excess product kicked up in the pan. The powder was so finely-milled that it didn’t seem to yield visible fallout but I could see powder fly away in the air as I applied and blended it out. The color stayed on decently for seven and a half hours before fading a bit.

Sable
Sable is a light-medium brown with subtle, warmer undertones and a matte finish. It had medium, buildable pigmentation with a soft, blendable consistency that felt silky-smooth but was on the more powdery side. I’d recommend using this shade with an eyeshadow primer for full coverage, though. It lasted well for seven and a half hours before fading visibly.

White Diamond has a transparent base with flecks of larger, white sparkle. The texture was lightly emollient, thin but had decent adhesion for as chocked-full of sparkle as it was. This shade was designed to be sheer, so the sheerness was as anticipated. It applied evenly and had good dispersion of the sparkle. It had some fallout over the eight hours it wore for.

Whisper
Whisper is a very light peach with moderate, warm undertones and a metallic sheen. It had opaque color payoff but the consistency was thicker and more prone to emphasizing skin texture, so I found it actually applied better with a fingertip or a dampened brush just to smooth out the powder better. This shade stayed on nicely for eight hours before fading a bit.

Formula Overview
-
In 2020, the brand reformulated their PRO eyeshadows and released new palettes (and new shades, however new-new they might be). The formula is supposed to be "highly pigmented" that "last[s] without creasing" and "blend[s] effortlessly." Each eyeshadow can also be removed from its respective palette--there's an included tool to do so--to rearrange the palette or depot (nice touch!).
The mattes felt less thin and were not quite as dry as the prior formula--a bit silkier--though the matte eyeshadows are still lightly to moderately powdery with light fallout but are blendable. I think it's a formula more suitable to someone who tends to prefer buildable coverage and a little more muted color.
The shimmers were slightly creamier, smooth, and blendable with higher color coverage that had good adherence to bare skin. They seemed a little thicker than the prior formula, which I think gave them better hold.
For the most part, they were easy to use with most shades lasting between seven and eight hours, which is average, so the longevity wasn't any better/worse than most eyeshadows on the market (including the prior formula).

Majestic
Majestic is a muted, medium-dark plum with subtle, warm brown undertones and flecks of silver sparkle. The texture was lightly emollient, but it ended up looking and feeling a little drier in practice. It had more semi-opaque coverage that was better applied with a fingertip or a dampened brush. It wore decently for seven and a half hours but had light fallout over time.

Black Violet
Black Violet is a darker, purple-plum with warmer, brown undertones and a cooler overtone paired with a satin sheen. It had rich color coverage paired with a soft, smooth consistency that was a little thinner than other shades but had good adhesion and blended out well. This shade stayed on well for eight hours before fading a bit.

Formula Overview
-
In 2020, the brand reformulated their PRO eyeshadows and released new palettes (and new shades, however new-new they might be). The formula is supposed to be "highly pigmented" that "last[s] without creasing" and "blend[s] effortlessly." Each eyeshadow can also be removed from its respective palette--there's an included tool to do so--to rearrange the palette or depot (nice touch!).
The mattes felt less thin and were not quite as dry as the prior formula--a bit silkier--though the matte eyeshadows are still lightly to moderately powdery with light fallout but are blendable. I think it's a formula more suitable to someone who tends to prefer buildable coverage and a little more muted color.
The shimmers were slightly creamier, smooth, and blendable with higher color coverage that had good adherence to bare skin. They seemed a little thicker than the prior formula, which I think gave them better hold.
For the most part, they were easy to use with most shades lasting between seven and eight hours, which is average, so the longevity wasn't any better/worse than most eyeshadows on the market (including the prior formula).
