I initially received this as part of an Almay promo pack that I purchased with their hyper-allergenic eye shadow but have since purchased on their own. I always get compliments when wearing this eye shadow and I think it is because it gives off that professional quality make up finish. The eye shadow stays on for the entire stay but doesn't agitate the skin at all. The use of all three colors on the eyes is the perfect combo for the day time with a hint of gloss and at night with a pop of liquid eyeliner and long lash mascara. A must buy for the handbag make up kit.
