Im not sure if I have the old formula or the new one as I bought this from another makeup artist. Either way this eyeshadow is amazing. I am using it everyday as a base color and an inner color...

I'm reviewing the old formulation, which I adore. I purchased Sandstone at an online discounter, sight unseen, based on the reviews here. When I first opened the lid, I thought, "Ick." Way too...

So pretty! It's a kind of oyster colour - not quite pink, not quite peach, not quite ivory. It's like nude skin but better as it makes my lids look refreshed and glowing. I also use it for a 1940s...

This is for the old formula RIS (thank you lovely swapper). I love Sandstone. I'm pretty pale with small green eyes, so I can't do complicated eye looks. My HG look lately is sandstone as a wash...

I used to love Laura Mercier Sandstone. However, the last one I bought - they had reformulated the product. It now does not go on the way my old one did (one swipe leaving a lovely color). It now...

An absoultely delicious color. It is a silky smooth sandy/peachy shimmer that looks awesome no matter how you use it. You absolutely need a primer with this or the eyeshadow will fade by mid-day. I...

Thank you MUAers! This is a gorgeous color and I never would have looked at at without all the great reviews. It doesn't fade on me at all; still there at the and of the day. Gives the perfect...

I agree 100% with msdi2u. It's a beautiful color, opens the eye area, but fades in a couple hours. I've tried everything primers and powder BUT nothing helped. I even took my first shadow back...

I got this on Ebay in the old packaging, which is dreadful b/c it is impossible to open! I love the shade, but I find it too fine for a brush and like it best applied with a finger; the staying...

Ordered Sandstone site unseen based on the glowing reviews. Love it! On me it reads as a nude with a hint of peach, really livens and brightens up the eye area. Looks great on its own with just...

I had high expectations for this shadow since it's always a MUA Top Pick. I tried it on, and at first I didn't think much of it. Then yesterday I was running late for work and I dropped my go-to...

Sandstone is perfect for a glowy, understated look by itself with liner and mascara, or I also love it with Topaz in the crease. It has the fabulous LM quality, very silky and blendable. On me, it...

Very nice! This is my first LM shadow. I usually wear MAC. But, this went on far smoother than MAC. The pigment is great. It's a nice color.

I'll add to the raves for this eye shadow. It is a light, shimmery soft peachy-pink color. I apply this in a thin wash and buff it in with a large firm brush and it looks very fresh and glowy....

Everytime I've clicked on MUA's Top Picks in Product Reviews, I've noticed LM Sandstone contantly in the top 5. So, I said to myself, wow, this is probably worth getting, but do I really need...

I love this! I apply LM Buttercream shadow all over my eye area, then this on the lid. I find it opens up my eyes and makes them look pretty & refreshed. It's a subtle shimmer (more of a glow!), so...

The color was ok. Nothing great. I think the effect this color is intended to have -- to highlight or create a pretty, neutral eye -- is much better accomplished by MAC's Grain.
