Chroma Light Shadow (020, Lilac Love)

Ok, it's official: Sugar Crush is a legitimate dupe for UD's Space Cowboy. I wore Sugar on one lid and Cowboy on another lid and honestly the difference is tiny. No one would know I was wearing different shadows because the base color seems about the same, a caramel-camel color, and both are equally sparkly. The only real difference I could notice is that, Cowboy's glitter was only white/silver, and a bit finer than Sugar's, and Sugar's glitter fleck is ever so slightly bigger, but that makes for a slightly more sparkly look, and I think I could also see a very subtle iridescent fleck besides of the main silvery flecks. But these are differences I could only see if I looked super close and *tried* to find differences. So overall, they are legitimately interchangeable unless you are partial to the formula differences, which were nothing very particular to me. Dupes aside, Sugar Crush is a pleasant neutral shade that can work easily for everyday life or special occasions. I would say its equally cute baby sister is Moira's Lucent Cream Shadow in Orion, which still has shimmer but a bit less forward than Sugar Crush, which makes it even better if you want to go more subtle for work/everyday life.

Kiss & Tell is definitely a mauve and is good neutral - it's both slightly warm and cool at the same time. It has a very subtle pale warm gold fleck mixed in with the mauve flecks, and overall it's a good shade for looks where you don't want to go too far from your natural skin tone but want to try something different than brown, tan, or gray tones. It's not super dark, it's like a gentle medium tone that can easily be sheered out or built up as desired.

Keepsake was pretty much as I expected it to be. It's pretty! Rather than simply being a yellow-gold color, it's yellow gold paired with an iridescent greenish glitter, which altogether with your skin tone still makes for a yellow hue. It's maybe a cousin of Moira's Lucent Cream Shadow in Saturn, except that Saturn seems cooler in its green glitter to me, and its base is more of a tan than a yellow, and the Lucent shadows seem to have a finer glitter fleck, which make them a bit more shimmer-like, and the Chroma shadows generally look more glitzy because they have slightly bigger glitter flecks. I like both product lines, personally. As with all the Chroma and Lucent shadows, Keepsake can be sheered out easily if you want more subtle color (but still plenty of sparkle!)

Lovely. Very sparkly, a bit smoky without being too dark, and super easy to blend and sheer out as desired. Flattering, somewhat cool brown color. It reminds me of Moira's Lucent Cream Shadow in Orion, except this is smokier and a bit darker, and Orion is like the lighter, somewhat nude/tan little sister of How Charming. Both are flattering when mixed with natural skin tones

Wow!! I love this shadow. It’s so sparkly, easy to apply, and it lasted a whole shift at my job without smudging or losing any intensity. Absolutely love!!
