Persephone Minerals’ Venus Crystal Power

An attractive enough gold-orange with enough depth that it isn't a yellow-orange, nor a neon. The finish is almost metallic…but not quite. I was hoping for another duochrome, or a duotone at the least; but the shadow is attractive. It's almost a lighter version of Beauty from the Earth's Dragon Slayer.

Photos that show how the product actually performs...! See how I create my swatches

A montage of three images: top left, close-up of the eyeshadow in the pot; top right, the eyeshadow mixed with water and applied to bare skin; bottom left, the eyeshadow applied dry over primer.

The Sailor Venus collection was not brought back when Persephone re-opened. Instead, the five (or was it six?) Sailor Scout collections were consolidated into the Sailor Senshi, and the colors reformulated. Not all of the colors made the cut. Many of the paler duotone and interference shadows were…‘casualties' isn't exactly the right word, but it's the best one I've got.
