Annabelle Single Eyeshadows: Swatches & Review

PURCHASED
Annabelle single eyeshadow pots in: 225 Ivory, Suedine, Pinky, 118 Gold Shine, Vert To Go, 121 Cloud, Aura, Gleam, Turquoise, Goddess, & Royalty
Recently Annabelle has done a overhaul of their display and lunched 5 new shade along with some of the old eyeshadows as part of the permanent line. These shadow retail for $5.50 to 6.99CAN but you can still fine them on clearance for half price at any old Annabelle display in Canada. I'm missing the brown, purple, white and black shades.

Annabelle single eyeshadow pots (Flash): 225 Ivory, Suedine, Pinky, 118 Gold Shine, Vert To Go, 121 Cloud, Aura, Gleam, Turquoise, Goddess, & Royalty. 
Ingredients
MICA, TALC, SYNTHETIC FLUORPHLOGOPITE, OCTYLDODECYL STEAROYL STEARATE, NYLON-12, PENTAERYTHRITYL TETRAISOSTEARATE, ZINC STEARATE, PHENOXYETHANOL, METHICONE, SORBIC ACID, TOCOPHERYL ACETATE, TIN OXIDE, STEARIC ACID.
+/-
TITANIUM DIOXIDE, IRON OXIDES, BISMUTH OXYCHLORIDE, FERRIC FERROCYANIDE, COPPER POWDER, BLUE 1 LAKE, ALUMINUM POWDER, CARMINE, YELLOW 5 LAKE.
Product: 15 pigmented, non-powdery shades (11 I'm reviewing). The single matte shade in Ivory is a tad sheer but buildable. The pigmentation of the recent eyeshadows is really decent with the lightest shade in the shimmer formula being slightly sheer.

Colour:
225 Ivory is a pale pink based nude with a satin/matte finish
Aura is a pale frosted mauve.
121 Cloud is a pale satin cool taupe.
Gleam is a cream warm frosted nude. (Spells awesome everyday shade to me)
118 Gold Shine is a frosted yellow gold.
Goddess is a copper/bronze shade.
Suedine is a cool tone taupe.
Vert To Go is a bright moss green with a satin/frost finish. This shade work best over a sticky base or primers as you can sheer it out a little too easily.
Turquoise is a true to its name with a light blue that leans a bit more green with subtle warm shimmer.
Royalty is a true cobalt blue in a almost satin finish.
Pinky is a warm pink with a satin finish sheen.


All are true to pan.

Wear: These wear 4-5 hours. Not bad but much better with a primer.

Packaging: Simple pot style packaging. The depot the same way a MAC pot works.
Daylight swatch: 225 Ivory, Aura, 121 Cloud, Gleam, 118 Gold Shine, Goddess, Suedine, Vert To Go, Turquoise, Royalty, & Pinky
Flash swatch: 225 Ivory, Aura, 121 Cloud, Gleam, 118 Gold Shine, Goddess, Suedine, Vert To Go, Turquoise, Royalty, & Pinky

Verdict: Definitely a keeper!
These shadows are on par with MAC's honestly!
