LUMMIR Light on Eyes Shadow Palette [8PM03 Autumn Sunset]

The color composition includes a range of elements, from the basic base colors to the depth-enhancing shadows and the vibrant point glitters. The matte colors are soft and have minimal fallout. The beige tones that can be applied across the entire eyelid area and the deep brown shades that can provide shading blend together seamlessly. The shimmer & glitter textures are of high-end quality. There is almost no pearl fallout, and the glitters adhere smoothly to the eyelid. The green-tinted pearl glitter is particularly captivating - it is a rare find, making it a valuable addition. The color payoff is also highly satisfactory. A single swipe provides vivid color, and layering does not result in clumping or uneven blending. When swatched on the back of the hand, the colors appear intense, while on the eyes, they create a natural-looking gradation. This exceeded expectations. Even without a base primer, the colors last for 6-7 hours. The glitter shades in particular are resistant to oil and do not smear, maintaining their hold well. They can be used comfortably for daily wear and also work well as a special occasion accent makeup, with a high-quality finish.

The palette itself is really pretty, but the khaki or green tones can be a bit burdensome for those who only do daily makeup. If blending is not done well, the eyes can look tired or smeared, so it is much more attractive for those who are somewhat familiar with eyeshadows. Some glitter colors have lower adhesion when using a brush, but adhere well when applied with fingers, and there was a slight feeling of pearl scattering when applied with a brush. Especially in the case of dry eye area, the pearls did not adhere evenly and felt a bit clumped. This part can be supplemented by using an eye primer or glitter fixer. The color payoff is strong, so initial adjustment is necessary as the color payoff is so good that it can come out too dark for beginners.

Eye shadow brushes can create natural and depth-filled shading by picking up only a small amount of product and gently patting it on. Especially, the 03 Autumn Sunset shade with its rich brown tones is recommended for beginner eyeshadow users to use a 'small amount + layering' technique.

The matte, matte pearl, shimmer, and glitter are all well-made without any shortcomings. Although they hyped it up from the planning stage and did a lot of viral marketing, the actual eyeshadows are just average. Overall, they apply smoothly without any powdery fallout and adhere well to the eyelids. Even the pearl-containing eyeshadows apply evenly without any stickiness, and the pearls are dispersed nicely, allowing for a sophisticated look without much effort. And the matte eyeshadows! They spread out evenly like mist and build up in layers without any heaviness or thickness. The first and brightest shade, which is like a baked apricot color, did have a slight heaviness to it though. Surprisingly, the two shades on the bottom right were the most impressive. They are quite different from the darkest eyeshadows you typically find in palettes. One of them, when lightly swept on, shows a subtle rosy undertone, almost like cocoa powder. It looks pretty on its own and when used to softly smudge the lower lashline, it makes the eye makeup look so warm. The last one is a deep brown with less yellow, and compared to similar deep brown eyeshadows, I feel a slight greenish tone to it. It was a nice touch to incorporate that khaki theme. My favorites are definitely the glitters. The lime glitter has a bluish shift that appears and disappears depending on the angle, and when applied from the inner corner to cover the lid, it looks absolutely ethereal. On days when Oprah's "Out of This World" is on, the inner corner is all about that glitter.

The price is quite high compared to the amount. I haven't really considered the shadow capacity much, but it would be heartbreaking to see the bottom. That's why I'm mentioning it. As a green lover, when road shops used to boldly pick out colors, I bought a few khaki shadows, and what I felt was that they were easy to swatch darker than the outward color. This palette shadow also has a bit of that feel. But this one is pretty in its own way.

When I rummaged through my eyeshadow drawer one day, I felt a sense of regret as it seemed I had only purchased warm-toned shades, lacking variety. Going forward, I should be more mindful to buy palettes with colors I don't already own, or with unique compositions. Although I was hesitant to purchase this lake-themed palette, thinking it was categorized as an autumn type, it turns out this was the palette I should have bought without hesitation. The quality is truly excellent, and while the color composition may seem ordinary at first glance, they perform surprisingly well once applied. So if there's a palette that catches your eye, don't worry about duplicating your existing collection or your personal coloring - just go for it!
