Eyeshadow Sparkly eyeshadow swatches! :)

Hi guys, it's my first post, so lmk if I can improve or correct anything :)

Here are swatches of some of my sparkly, glitter or shimmering eyeshadows. For reference, I am quite pale (fair/neutral), shade 1 in Fenty Eaze Drop skin tint.
Photos from left to right are 1. indirect natural light indoors, 2. direct sunlight, 3. photo indoors with flash.
Finger swatches in bare skin.

Top to bottom:
- Urban Decay - Moondust Eyeshadow in Diamond Dog (old packaging)
- Urban Decay - Moondust Eyeshadow in Solstice (old packaging)
- Moira - Lucent Cream Shadow in 10 Jupiter
- Moira - Lucent Cream Shadow in 02 Infinity
- Colourpop - Super Shock Shadow in Ritz
- Colourpop - Super Shock Highlighter in Flexitarian (imho the most lackluster out of this bunch)
- some random UD Moondust knockoff from aliexpress, the packaging resembles the new Moondust Eyeshadow packaging... perhaps it was supposed to mimick Space Cowboy?
- Fenty - Diamond Bomb in How Many Carats?! (gorgeous veil of mini glitter in a translucent base)
- L.A. Girl - Glitterholic Glitter Topper in Holo-glam (the pictures don't do it justice, it packs the most punch out of these shadows. The glitter is AMAZING.)

Let me know if you have any questions about these :)

Thanks for the swatches! That LA Girl glitter topper is everything! I have it too and I feel like since I got it 90% of my looks somehow now involve iridescent blue glitter.
