Memento
Lethal Cosmetics Memento 6-Pan Eyeshadow Palette ($27.00 for 0.34 oz.) includes six new eyeshadows, which are part of the brand’s single range, so each can be purchased individually ($6 to $7 each) or as a pre-made palette (as shown here). Two shimmers were fantastic, while the mattes were a little sheer or powdery, and one shimmer was better applied with a fingertip.

Inhabit
Inhabit is a pale, buttery yellow with subtle, warm undertones and warmer, iridescent pink shimmer and sparkle. The texture was moderately emollient, while the shimmer seemed to be chunkier, which resulted in a slightly uneven, thicker product when applied to my skin. I had a smoother, more even result when I applied this shade using a fingertip or a dampened brush. It had semi-opaque, buildable pigmentation that lasted well for eight hours on me.

Formula Overview
$6.00/0.06 oz. – $100.00 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to have “extreme pigmentation” and “effortless blendability” … “that [will] last all day.” There are two primary finishes: mattes and metallics, and the latter can also be used wet.
The matte finish has semi-opaque to opaque color coverage with moderate powderiness; it’s a formula that is best used with a lighter hand. There was light fallout with some shades, though not at all, and they were blendable for the most part. Even with a light hand, there was still a bit of powderiness present–the brand did warn about using less with their formula–in the pan.
There were a few darker shades that had a tendency to sheer out when applied or did not apply as evenly, especially when layered over a lighter shade but most of the mid-tone and lighter shades were easy to apply and blend out. As a result, I found myself having better results by going dark to light rather than light to dark (which is more in line with how I typically work).
The metallic finish ranged from creamier, denser, and a bit thicker to softer, dense but still a little powdery (usually the lighter, more white-based shades). They were mostly opaque to fully opaque in a single layer, so they didn’t need to be applied with a wet brush to achieve coverage or adhesion. I found that some of the more powdery, shimmery shades were more flattering on the lid when used with a fingertip or a dampened brush, though.
The matte eyeshadows tended to wear around eight hours on me before fading, while the shimmer shades lasted eight to eight and a half hours on me.

Kindred
Kindred is a medium pink with warm undertones and lighter, warm gold shimmer that gave it a metallic finish. It was richly pigmented with a smooth, almost cream-like texture that applied evenly to bare skin and blended out well without being too emollient. It lasted nicely for eight and a half hours before showing signs of fading.

Ethos
Ethos is a vivid, deeper pink with warm undertones and a matte finish. It had nearly opaque pigmentation, which was buildable to full coverage with less than half of a layer on top. The texture was soft, smooth, and blendable with a little powderiness that was more present in the pan than on the skin. It stayed on well for eight and a half hours and left a faint stain behind after removal.

Remnant
Remnant is a medium-dark, pink-coral with warm undertones and a matte finish. The eyeshadow had a slightly thinner consistency that was more firmly-pressed in the pan, which made it less powdery than the average matte shade by the brand. It had nearly opaque color coverage that was buildable with less than a second layer. It stayed on well for eight hours before fading visibly.

Acolyte
Acolyte is a medium-dark peach with strong, warm undertones and a bright, metallic finish. The texture was incredibly smooth, almost cream-like, but not overly dense or too firmly-pressed into the pan, which made it easy to pick up, yield opaque coverage, and ensured it was blendable on my skin. It wore nicely for nine hours before fading a bit.

Willow
Willow is a medium-dark, plummy brown with warm undertones and a matte finish. It had semi-opaque, buildable pigmentation with a soft, lightly powdery–but blendable–texture that wasn’t prone to fallout but did perform better when applied over a primer for coverage. This shade lasted well for eight hours before fading noticeably.
