Desert Sun
Sydney Grace Desert Sun Pressed Pigment Shadow ($6.00 for 0.06 oz.) is a medium-dark copper with strong, warm orange undertones and fine flecks of pink and gold sparkle over a metallic finish. The eyeshadow had rich pigmentation in a single layer, which applied well to bare skin with a smooth, even lay down of product that diffused well along the edges.
The consistency dense, smooth, and lightly creamy without being too thick or too firmly-pressed into the pan. It stayed on nicely for eight and a half hours before fading a bit.

Formula Overview
$6.00/0.06 oz. - $100.00 Per Ounce
The shimmer eyeshadows are more consistent in pigmentation with the majority of shades having opaque color coverage. The more metallic/sparkly the shade is, the creamier and more emollient the eyeshadow felt in the pan, which often yielded really smooth application and good adherence to the lid, though a few worked better with a fingertip or a dampened brush for true-to-pan color or to get a truer finish/sheen.
Most shades, however, worked well with brushes, and I didn't have trouble applying or blending out most of the shimmer shades. The more satin to pearl like finishes tend to feel a little thinner but blend out well. These shades wore between eight and nine hours on me with some of the more foiled-like shades creasing noticeably at the end (and the less foiled-like ones fading).

Paris
Sydney Grace Paris Pressed Pigment Shadow ($6.00 for 0.06 oz.) is a light, rosy brown with moderate, warm undertones and an intense, metallic finish that reflected a lot of light and appeared lighter when applied than in the pan.
The texture felt soft, more loosely-pressed, but rich in pigment and “melted” when applied to bare skin for a very smooth, seamless effect. This shade lasted well for eight and a half hours before showing signs of fading.

The Ballet
Sydney Grace The Ballet Pressed Pigment Shadow ($6.00 for 0.06 oz.) is a deep pink with strong, warm undertones and pink and gold shimmer that gave it a bright, metallic finish. The consistency was smooth, creamier, and had more slip, so it applied best by patting and pressing into place rather than sweeping.
It would also work well with fingertips or a wet brush. It had nearly opaque color coverage in a single layer, which stayed on nicely for eight and a half hours before fading a bit.
