Pros
The deep brown color has a reddish hue, and it's filled with golden pearls! It can be considered the original and representative item of the currently popular matte pearl eyeshadows. The pigmentation is vivid, and the lasting power is great, so it can deepen the eye makeup look when used as an eyeliner, and it also works well as an eyeliner substitute. Although the amount has been significantly reduced after the renewal, since you only need to use a small amount each time, it can still last a long time.
Cons
When applied on the eyes, the gold pearls are not very visible. The blending is not smooth, and it tends to apply unevenly. The case!! The sticky case that becomes even more sticky over time is really the worst.
Tip
Once the case starts getting sticky, there's no solution, so just transfer it to a different case.

Pros
The golden pearl is truly luxurious and beautiful. The brown color itself is also very nicely extracted. There is no powder scattering. It also has a mirror, so it's good for doing touch-up makeup outside! The compact size is also good for carrying around. It doesn't take up much pouch space.
Cons
I wish they would reduce the volume and lower the price as well.. I don't think the day will come when I use all of that up. The amount of the point shadow, which is not a base shadow, is too much.
Tip
Blending it over the eyeliner also creates a beautiful harmony between the brown, the golden pearl, and the eyeliner!

Pros
1) Color : The combination of burgundy and gold shimmer is so beautiful, it's great for adding depth. 2) Case : It's small and thin, perfect for carrying around in a pouch. 3) Color Payoff : The color payoff is great, it looks beautiful both subtly and intensely.
Cons
1) Since it's mainly for lining, you'll need a dedicated brush for it. 2) It's too intense to apply all over the eyelid, it's best suited for lining. 3) As someone with a fair, cool-toned complexion, it tends to appear quite reddish on me.

Pros
I usually do my eye makeup every day. Using eyeliner was troublesome to draw and difficult to remove, so I tended to use dark brown eyeshadow to apply. Galapagos is the ultimate, but I hesitated about the price and eventually decided to buy it. I think I'll be able to use it for a long time. The lasting power is also good.
Cons
Price. Price. Price. Price. Price. Price. Price.
Tip
It's not a dark brown tone like in the photo, but just a plain brown. The golden shimmer is so shiny. ✨ You can get it a bit cheaper at Gallery X Mall. But the online duty-free shop is the best. 👍🏻

Pros
Among the brown-toned eyeshadows, this is my favorite item. It blends the line boundaries most naturally.
Cons
You need to control the application well (using too much can make it too intense).

Pros
The shaded colors are the best. The color is great for adding accents. It looks beautiful when you create a gradient from the under-eye area to the outer corner of the eye. The golden pearl shimmers beautifully, allowing you to create a more beautiful dark brown look. The color payoff is really excellent.
Cons
You need to control the application well. If you apply too much, the eyes can appear dull.

Pros
The longevity and pigmentation are phenomenal. I have several brown shimmer shades, and this seems to be the best one.
Cons
It's expensive...? It's expensive, but the quantity is good, so it's okay.

Pros
It's an essential daily life item that I use every day! They say there are really cheap drugstore brands, but the color payoff is at the level of shouting 'I'm a real Nars!' The color is just amazing...They're always promoting it...100% repurchase intention. There's no powder fallout, and the dark brown with gold pearl is a common combination, but Nars is different.
Cons
There's nothing disappointing...You might think the price is the issue, but at this price, I'd rather spend more and get a Nars.
Tip
When I'm busy, I just apply a basic, non-shimmery eyeshadow and then use this square-shaped brush to pick it up and apply it along the crease and under the eyes in >this shape. Suddenly, the look becomes...If I had to pick the best Nars product, I'd say Galapagos.

Pros
I use a lot of brown eyeshadow. It's an honest, deep reddish-brown without any greyish tones. The pigmentation is great and the color is so pretty.
Cons
It's a price gouger, but it's okay if you buy it at duty-free. Blending with your fingers is absolutely impossible. You really need a brush, and if there's even a little bit of moisture, it sets immediately, which is inconvenient.

Pros
Wow, this is the ultimate in shadow perfection...ㅠㅠㅠㅠ The red tones are just right, not too dull or too shimmery, and the lovely golden pearl and the perfect brown shade come together beautifully in this case. As a cat-eye enthusiast, this is an absolute must-have to fill in that triangular area under my eyes.
Cons
The price...? The price...hmm...the price...too high...my wallet is crying...ㅠ A tiny little shadow......
Tip
This deep shade is quite difficult to use on its own, so it's best to use it together with other eyeshadow shades!
