Lilas
Viseart Lilas Petits Fours Eyeshadow Palette ($22.00 for 0.21 oz.) is a new, more taupe-leaning color story that included two matte eyeshadows and two metallic eyeshadows. The matte formula was lightly to moderately powdery, but both shades applied evenly and had good longevity so it was just a little messier to use than ideal. The two metallics were pigmented and very bright/shiny when applied to the lid.
Fondant
Fondant is a very light, lavender-taupe with subtle, cool undertones and a bright, metallic finish. The texture was smooth, lightly creamy, and blendable without being too dense or too firmly pressed into the pan. It had opaque pigmentation that adhered evenly to my lid and lasted nicely for nine hours before fading visibly.

Formula Overview
-
The eyeshadow formula is supposed to be "pigment[ed]" with "smooth and even application" that is "long-lasting." The matte shades are typically semi-opaque to opaque but buildable with soft, velvety textures that can sometimes be a little powdery or slightly firm, depending on the shade. I find that the mattes are often best suited to someone who likes control over pigmentation and may prefer to build up color; they regularly perform better in practice than just swatched on the arm as well.
The shimmer shades range from satin to metallic, and the more metallic shades tend to feel creamier to the touch, while the satin ones have a fine pearl to them that looks almost melted on the lid once blended out. Both the mattes and shimmers are blendable and easy to work with. Most of Viseart's eyeshadows wear between seven and nine hours on me.

Tiramisu
Tiramisu is a very light, lavender-taupe with neutral-to-cool undertones and a matte finish. It had opaque pigmentation that applied well to bare skin and blended out nicely along the edges without sheering out. The texture was soft but moderately powdery, so there was light fallout during application (even when I tapped off excess). It lasted for eight and a half hours before fading noticeably.

Argente
Argente is a darker taupe with subtle, cool undertones and a bright, metallic finish and faint micro-sparkle. It had opaque color coverage in a single layer, which applied evenly to bare skin but had light to moderate fallout as I applied and blended it out. I’d recommend using it with a dampened brush or a fingertip to minimize fallout. Thet exture was soft, smooth, and slightly dense but not too thick or too firmly-pressed into the pan. It wore well for eight and a half hours before fading visibly.
