SUQQU Deep Nuance Eyes: EX-02 & EX-03: Review & Swatches

I love SUQQU. It's a niche, well made Japanese brand. You still can't get it in the US, you have to buy it from the UK at Selfridges or Harrods or from Japan from Ichibankao or other custom purchase for fee buy Japanese sites. I recently grabbed two shades of the new Fall 2016 Deep Nuance Eyes cream eyeshadows. These are limited edition.

Per Selfridges: "Cult beauty brand SUQQU's Deep Nuance Eyes edit is part of the house's Limited Edition AW16 collection - and it's set to be a sell-out. The soufflé-like cream glides onto the lids with ease thanks to a resilient silicone-gel formula that flexes like a cushion, enhancing a smooth, crease-free and long-lasting finish. Bring radiant yet subtle depth to the eyes with one of the five sought-after shades."

EX-02 is described as a glowing beige, EX-03 as a sparkling brown. Those are pretty accurate. EX-02 is a shimmery neutral to cool deeper beige. EX-03 is a shimmery warm medium brown with gold micro glitter.

The formula is creamy, smooth, pigmented and not streaky. It has a nice texture that glides on easy. I love the packaging, formula texture as well as the shades. The only issue I have with them is their longevity. It sucks. They crease so fast. Within an hour or two. It does fade after 8 hours as well no matter what primer you use. I tried several primers. This is not as well done as Tom Ford's which does crease eventually but lasts so much longer than these. If you like SUQQU and cream shadows and you don't care if they crease, these are for you. If you mostly hate cream shadows because they crease these won't be for you. These do come with a small eyeshadow brush but I used my preferred cream eyeshadow brush. I also found EX-03 the gold micro glitter does have fall out later in the day.
I posted the below pic to show after you swipe your finger in the pot you can see the more intense pigment of the shadows. L EX-03, R EX-02:
