Comments about elf Cosmetics Duo Eyeshadow:
I bought all 4 duo's and I must say the colors were pretty true to the site and packaging. They last a good amount of time, not a full day though. They're perfect natural colors for me since I don't wear too many colors and prefer more a natural look. The size was nice for traveling and adding to my case with the rest of my makeup without being super bulky. They're great for a purse when you need a touch up during the day. Overall, great little eye shadow. I'd love to see some more colors though.

Comments about elf Cosmetics Duo Eyeshadow:
These are just ok....I have ALL of the powder duos-including olive. I got these because I thought they'd be convenient to take when traveling..and they are. But they're not really worth getting because the colors are very light. They don't show up very well, even on my pale, pale skin. I recommend these for a young girl who is just starting out with makeup. It's a cheap, easy set to buy. If you want staying power, pair them with their cream countrparts.

I have some of the older duos and boy, do I love them!
The brown/black is the best! I can use them wet as a eyeliner, or dry as an eyeshadow - so versatile for only a dollar!

Comments about elf Cosmetics Duo Eyeshadow:
These shades are nice and very pigmented but the amount of fallout is ridiculous. Just sweeping my brush across the shadow causes fallout. I have to blow on the brush AND the pan. Waste of product.

Comments about elf Cosmetics Duo Eyeshadow:
This product isn't awful, but it's really not good either. The peach color looks GORGEOUS on the website; and in person, it looks orange on my eyes!!! The deep brown color is pretty, but it doesn't blend well at all. Maybe I just got a dud?

Comments about elf Cosmetics Duo Eyeshadow:
I bought Black Licorice and Mocha Swirl. I used Shimmering Facial whip as a primer and they both worked great! I was skeptical at first because of how inexpensive it was but I really enjoyed this product. Definitely worth buying. I just came back and bought the other 2 duos! :)

Comments about elf Cosmetics Duo Eyeshadow:
I bought the butter pecan color. i liked the color a lot and it made a nice combo with the browns. The only problem i had was creasing but the easy solution is just to put some primer under it before putting it on

Comments about elf Cosmetics Duo Eyeshadow:
I bought this a while ago, and I really liked it. I got Butter Pecan, and my favourite thing about the duo has to be the colours.
The peachy shadow on my lid with the brown in my crease look incredible on my blue eyes. It really makes them pop. I use elf's eyelid primer plus a white base underneath to give the colours a little extra oomph. Also, I should note I haven't seen a peach, at least, as pretty as this one anywhere else. The pigmentation is really good, even without the white base I was using, the colours still showed up on my eyes very well.
A few people have said something about a slightly powdery texture, and I got that impression as well. It was difficult to get the brown into my crease because of it. It kept getting pretty messy, and takes a bit to get used to working with it.
I have since found other shadows where I like the texture more, but please keep in mind I still like this product a lot. Good price, good colours, and they do last a long time for me. These aren't my favourite shadows, but I am impressed with this product, and will eventually re-purchase.

Comments about elf Cosmetics Duo Eyeshadow:
I bought the Olive on a whim, and I'm so-so about it. I like the pretty green... it really brightens my face. I only used the brown half once, and it looks terrible... its just wrong somehow, too dark, very smudgy, and doesn't blend well with the green or into my eyelid. Looked terrible, so I won't ever use that. The product overall smudges and feels greasy the entire time I have it on, and the color fades within a few hours. Its cool once in a while, but I certainly don't use it everyday.

Comments about elf Cosmetics Duo Eyeshadow:
Really disappointed in these as I ordered almost every set. Even with primer, they fell flat - no pigment payoff. Oh well, some you win, some you lose. I passed them all on to my niece. I placed a large order for a bunch of products, including the eye enhancing set in green/hazel #1, 2 compact singles and 2 of their mineral shadows. I know the mineral ones are great,so I am hopeful that the other ones live up to my expectations.
