Magnetic
Sephora Magnetic Charged Up Liquid Eyeshadow ($10.00 for 0.16 oz.) is a vivid, deep orange-gold with strong, warm undertones and a sparkling, metallic sheen. It had nearly opaque pigmentation in a single layer, which made it more pigmented than marketed. The texture was lightweight, creamy, and spreadable without taking too long to set into place for 10-hour wear.

Formula Overview
$10.00/0.16 oz. – $62.50 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to be “lightweight, buildable” and set “without creasing, fallout, or fading for comfortable” wear. The coverage was more semi-opaque to opaque for many shades, so for those wanting a sheerer effect or to really build up the layers, I’d recommend deliberately using less than you expect to need as these felt more pigmented than sheer from using them.
The texture was lightweight, emollient, and creamy–more mousse-like–and they had 10-15 seconds of working time that enabled me to apply, blend, and place without having to work at a breakneck pace. Once the formula dried down, it was quite set and would flake off if one tried to keep working with it. Left alone, then they lasted for 9-10 hours without fading, flaking, or creasing on me.

Striking
Sephora Striking Charged Up Liquid Eyeshadow ($10.00 for 0.16 oz.) is a light rose gold with moderate, warm undertones and a smooth, metallic sheen. It had full color payoff paired with a lightweight, creamy texture that was easy to apply as an opaque layer of product or to sheer out for more of a wash of sheen. It lasted nicely for 10 hours before creasing slightly.

All Day
Sephora All Day Charged Up Liquid Eyeshadow ($10.00 for 0.16 oz.) is a medium, rosy copper with moderate, warm undertones and a lightly sparkled, more metallic finish. It had opaque color coverage in a single layer, which could be blended out and diffused for more of a medium-wash of color if desired.
The texture was lightweight, almost mousse-like, but quite creamy and easy to work with on bare skin using a fingertip or a brush. It set within 10-15 seconds and stayed on well for nine hours before fading slightly on me.
