What it is
A natural gradation brown eye with a unified shadow color that makes the eyes look wider without encircling them
Ingredients
Mica, talc, synthetic fluorphlogopite, diphenylsiloxyphenyl trimethicone, caprylic/capric triglyceride, hydrogenated polyisobutene, pentaerythrityl tetraisostearate, magnesium myristate, isotridecyl isononanoate, petrolatum, disodium stearoyl glutamate, diisostearyl malate, zinc myristate, dimethicone, sorbitan isostearate, isopropyl titanium triisostearate, aluminum hydroxide, sodium lauroyl aspartate, zinc chloride, ethylparaben, methylparaben, sodium dehydroacetate, (+/-) silica, titanium dioxide, iron oxide, barium sulfate, tin oxide
How to use
1. Take A onto your finger and lightly spread it over the entire upper eyelid. 2. Take B onto the wider end of the tip and layer it over the eyelid and lower eyelid. 3. Take C onto the wider end of the tip and layer it widely from the outer corner of the upper and lower eyelids to the shade hole. Blending while smudging will make your eyes look wider and create a deep gradation. 4. Take D onto the narrow end of the tip and apply it in a line around the edge of your eye. POINT! Just apply C into the shade hole! It's a shadow color with color nuance, so it blends naturally and creates a larger-looking eye look.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this authentic?
Yes. Every item is bought from an official seller in Japan, or direct from the brand for pre-orders,
never from resellers or grey market stock. Counterfeits and grey market listings are a real problem in
Asian beauty online, and buying only through official channels is how we rule it out.
What are your shipping rates?
On orders under US$75, shipping is a flat US$20 to the United States and US$10 to all other countries.
Orders of US$75 or more ship free, applied automatically at checkout. Your exact shipping cost is shown before you pay.

Do you offer express shipping?
Yes. As of 22 July 2026, we offer International Express Mail through Japan Post. The cost is based on order weight and is calculated automatically at checkout.
Will I pay customs or import fees?
US orders: No. As of July 1, 2026, all US orders ship DDP (duties delivered prepaid), meaning we prepay all import duties on our end. Nothing is due at your door.
Orders outside the US: Possibly. Duties and import taxes are set by your local customs authority and are not collected at checkout, so any charges on delivery are your responsibility.
We're working on rolling out prepaid duties for more countries soon.
I think it's the perfect brown. I like that I can use all the colors in the palette without any wasted colors.
As expected from KATE. It's cheap but easy to use. The color is great! I got two limited edition colors, and both were lovely. I wish they would release them as standard colors. I'm happy that it makes my eyes look more defined. When I use this for makeup, I often get compliments on how cute the colors are!
I bought Kate eyeshadow for the first time in a while. It's a discontinued product, so I got it at a bargain price. I chose Greige Brown, a brown that suits cool undertones. The third color from the left seems to suit me. It doesn't make my eyes look puffy, which is nice. I usually just apply this color after applying the color on the far left all over my face. It's light, but it has some shimmer in it, so it gives the impression of a fully applied makeup look. It's a bit similar to Chanel's Bouton Couture...? The texture and color retention are different, but it looks like it will be a palette I can use a lot, so I'm glad I bought it.
I really liked this and used it! It's popular because anyone can easily create an exquisite brown gradient. It has a moist powder texture and great color payoff. It's a versatile eyeshadow that can be used for everyday wear or office makeup. I'm a little sad that it's being discontinued!
The color is so beautiful. The color lasts well and is great value for money! I really love KATE's color. It's dark but not too dark. The powder is soft so it's easy to use and I recommend it!
