What Makes the Moira Chroma Light Shadow Different?
- The six new shades use cosmic-themed names, from Venus Rising to Frozen Orbit, and are numbered 025–030 after the line's existing 24 shades.
- Moira's ingredient lists show two bases: 025, 028 and 030 are built on aluminum starch octenylsuccinate with no mica listed, while 026, 027 and 029 list mica and synthetic fluorphlogopite.
- 030 Frozen Orbit lists titanium dioxide (CI77891) as its only colourant. 028 Aurora lists ultramarines, ultramarine pink and carmine.
Formula and Packaging
According to Moira, the Chroma Light Shadow is a highly pigmented metallic eyeshadow with a foiled finish. The brand says it uses micro-fine glitter for multidimensional sparkle with minimal fallout, has a creamy texture that blends easily, and gives long-lasting shine. Moira says the formula can be layered, from a subtle metallic glow to a bolder look.
Moira describes the product as vegan, paraben-free, phthalate-free and gluten-free. However, the ingredient list on the 028 Aurora page includes Carmine (CI75470). Customer reviews on the product pages predate the new shades and refer to the existing Chroma Light Shadow line.
It is Moira's latest shimmer launch after the MOIRA Cosmetics Dreamlight Highlighter Balm and the MOIRA Dreamlight Glow & Blur Blush Kit, which pairs that highlighter with Love Blur Blush. For other eye, face and lip launches, see BeautyTalkClub's makeup releases.
How to Use
Moira recommends priming the lids with its Eyeshadow Primer (sold separately), then packing on colour with a flat or firm brush. The brand suggests blending with a fluffier brush for a more all-over sparkle, or applying with fingertips.
