Coastal Scents - Hot Pots: Seaside Bronze

Coastalscents.com's description:

"dazzling, golden-bronze hue with a shimmer finish"

Finish : Shimmer
Application :  Semi-Opaque

"A 1-inch metal pan that contains a highly pigmented eye shadow for multiple applications. Each Coastal Scents Hot Pot™ fits snugly into our Go Pod, 4 Piece, 12 Piece, and 28 Piece Empty Magnetic Palettes. These custom palettes contain magnets in a soft foam padding which attract the metal pan of the Hot Pot™. This allows you to completely customize your palette to create any look by simply adding interchangeable Hot Pots™ from our vast collection of shades, hues, and finishes."

My thoughts:

These Hot Pots from Coastal Scents are a lot like MAC's eyeshadows, and maybe even better. They all have a creamy, soft texture, and most of them are HIGHLY pigmented.

I would agree that the application of this particular shade is semi-opaque, but I wouldn't say it is "bronze" at all. Its more of a golden orange. This shade has a really pretty iridescence to it and depending on what angle in the light you look at it, you see different tones of orange/gold.  I love using this shade for all over the lid or as a pop of color on the lower lash line.
