Bare Mineral eye shadow brushes on, looks beautiful, and will not come off. I use an eyelid primer under it and find that it stays put until I remove it with makeup remover. The colors are beautiful...you need to try them because they frequently look different on the skin from what their in-the-container appearance makes you think they will look like. Only problem with these eyeshadows is that I prefer a matte finish and many of them have a bit of glimmer or shine. Some that are described as matte on eBay are not really matte. Some sellers don't seem to realize the importance of getting that descriptor exactly right. Night Owl has quite a bit of glimmer....it is shiny but it is a beautiful medium brown, if you like that.
