Meow Cosmetics’ Grandiloquent

Deep bronze - not quite black, but a dark rich brown. There's a good amount of shimmer finish, and the color payoff is excellent. This is what I always hope for from Meow Cosmetics, but so often wasn't seeing: a color that actually delivered on the promise of rich, deep color and a strong finish. The colors in the Lost Rainforest are kind of hit-or-miss, in terms of actual versus expected pigmentation levels. Same for the Caribbean Escape shades. Of the shades I've sampled from the Shattered Equinox collection, though, everything that was not specifically marked as “sheer” was a solid layer of color (which for this collection, happened to be all of them.)
