NABLA Cosmetics Play Hard is a slightly warm-toned, very light duochrome with a sparkle finish. It is an eyeshadow that is permanent in this palette: Secret.

Editor's Review

Play Hard is a bright, white gold base that shifted between gold and green paired with a sparkling finish. It seemed to have a more transparent base to it, rather than an actual base color, so I wasn't surprised at the more medium to semi-opaque "coverage" from it. (The brand's promotional swatches show it as opaque, though.) I could feel the sparkles in the texture, but it was still smoother, a little cream-like, and more densely-packed in the pan. It worked best by pressing and patting it onto the skin with fingertips or a wet brush to maximize coverage and evenness, though a dry brush worked decently, especially if it was more for layering or to highlight the inner tearduct area. It lasted well for eight hours on me with slight fallout over time.

Girl, this shade is fucking beautiful! It is sheer and flaky, but in the best possible way. It is a great transformer/topper shade that shifts whitish. blue green. It makes my eyes look like a beautiful mermaid goddess. It can also be built up to a semi-opaque shade. It also makes a glistening inner corner highlight. I recommend because the shade is unque gorgeous and fairy like. This is shade brightens and brings attention to your eyes. Surprisingly, there is not a any fall out or glitteryness that gets all over your face. Also it lasts ALL DAY. It reminds me of a pressed version of the Sugarpill Lumi.
