Floating Lights
Sydney Grace Floating Lights Loose Pigment ($6.00 for 0.14 oz.) has more of a translucent base chocked full of larger-sized sparkle that shifted from pale gold to cool pink. It had greater intensity applied damp, but it was chunky/sparkly enough that it would be best paired with an adhesive base and really packed into place for coverage and hold.
- Medium to semi-opaque, buildable coverage
- Chunkier texture, hard to dispense from product opening
- Had to be really pushed/swirled in the lid to “crush” the product together
- Best applied over a tacky base with a fingertip or a dampened brush
- Long-wearing (8.5 hours)

Formula Overview
$6.00/0.14 oz. - $42.86 Per Ounce
It's designed to be worn alone, though the brand recommends a "mixing medium or a glitter glue" to avoid fallout. The loose consistency was denser and more weighed down, which made it less messy to work with than some more finely-milled (but very powdery) loose eyeshadow formulas available. They were very pigmented without much product, and they had similar coverage applied dry as well as wet.
The wet application typically yielded smoother, more metallic finishes and less fallout compared to dry application. Dry application required a bit more finesse as the product applied best by patting and pressing it on and then gently smoothing it into place, otherwise it had some fallout during application. A few shades that were more sparkly looked a bit chunkier applied to my skin when I used it dry (but were smoother and more forgiving when used wet). They lasted between seven and eight hours on me before creasing.
