REVIEW! | Milani Runway Eyes in Antigua



Milani Runway Eyes in Antigua is an antique green pearl with gold glitter overspray.  The glitter was gone after my first use, but the shadow itself still contained some gold sparkle throughout.  The shadow lasted 8 full hours without creasing or fading (with eyeshadow primer) but there was a generous amount of gold sparkle fall out under my eyes at the end of the day.  It was definitely more impactful applied wet; the sparkle really came to life and the base color was a bit darker than when I applied it dry.  It's a tad powdery applied dry, but for a drugstore shadow under $7.00 bucks it's pretty great!  


It's a solid shadow with good color payoff and no fading or creasing problems.  To credit Milani, they do state on their website that the glitter is an overspray.  However, most folks aren't going to visit the website before purchasing it and might be disappointed when they swipe a brush across the surface and all the glitter comes flying off.

My rating: B
Price: $6.99
