eye make up review: No 7 stay perfect eye shadow trio

Hi everyone I hope your doing well, today I will be reviewing an eye shadow from the line No 7 by Boots. Boots it's a European brand drugstore. The brand No 7 has a wide variety of products to choose from. It has skin care to make up, I will focus on the line Stay Perfect Smoothing Eyeshadow Trio.7

Product Claims:

This eye shadow trio compact contains three high-impact colors that blend effortlessly and last for hours.

How To Use:
Prepare the eyelid for application with No7 Stay Perfect Smoothing & Brightening Eye Base. Use a brush to apply Shade 1 (top shade) as a highlighter all over the lid from lash line to brow. Apply Shade 2 (middle shade) onto lower lid, from lash line to the crease of your eye. Apply Shade 3 (bottom shade) at the lash line as an eye liner. Using a damp brush will intensify the color, creating a more dramatic look.

Product Experience:
The product comes in black oblong shaped packaging. It has a nice wide clear top so you can clearly see the eye shadows.
It's a pressed eye shadow trio so you get three eye shadows a light, medium and dark shade. You get 3 g 0.1 oz. of product for $7.99
I bought a 2 eye shadow trio from the line, the one I bought the colors I know I will use often and will be good for travel as well.
I bought the Classic Matte trio and Cappuccino . The Classic matte trio is shades of grey like the name it's all matte shades. The lightest shade has a light matte bone shade. The medium shade is a light matte silver and the the darkest shade is a matte grey.
The cappuccino is a trio of taupe's.  In this trio all the colors have shimmery finish.
The shadows both matte and shimmery shades are so buttery and smooth. Easy to apply and blends easily with each other.

Cons
  • It's supposed to be long lasting but it only lasted 3 hours on my lids without the use of a primer.
  • Needs a good tacky eye shadow base
  • The shadows are too soft and powdery creates a lot of fall out
  • The eyeshadow themselves break easily because they are so soft.
Available in 11 colors
