92% OF CHICKS DIG IT
There are a few colors to choose from but my favourites are pomegranate Punk and Tough as Taupe, they are very easy to blend, I have not experienced creasing with them and the color pay off is amazing.
simply put, these things are the bomb diggity. to be fair, they have better pigmentation, staying power, etc., than most of the similar higher end products i've tried. these can be worn on their own and last all day without creasing (which is almost never accomplishable for me!). i've really got to applaud maybelline -- they've got their game on with their recent products and i love it.
I was stoked to try this stuff. Looked forward to something that stayed on all day.....
I tried it with and without primer and all I got was crepey looking eyelids :(. The colour was not as intense as i was hoping for either. I will continue to buy powder base instead
Ok the price was good, the quality was amazing, and it works like it says. It is really a color tattoo and DOES NOT come off for at least 24 hours, unless you use soap ( lots) and a cloth and hope you don't get soap in your eyes. I love that it didn't smudge, but when i am going out I like to come home and take off my make-up so I can wake up not looking like a raccoon. I don't feel like having to take soap and a cloth and scrub my eyeballs for minutes on end, and have my eyes look like I have been crying all night or have soap in my eyes. Don't get me wrong every woman wants eye shadow to stay right where they put it, but 24 hours is a little bit to much!
I really enjoy these eye shadows I own four of them; pomegranate punk, bad to the bronze, tough as taupe and too cool. The only one that I was disappointed with was too cool it applies patchy and is too glittery. Bad to the bronze is the smoothest. These eye shadows last a long time, as far as I have tested they last 12hrs. I would buy these again.
Usually I can't stand cream eye shadows because the ones I have tried in the past have been very oily based and just slip off during the day or get all junked up in the crease. Or they had too much shimmer and just make my lids look very greasy. But this one isn't like that at all though. It goes on very smoothly (almost matte) and blends just like a powder shadow. The colour is strong without looking too clownish and stays on until you rub it off with a good make-up remover. Great product over all and it makes me want to go back and buy a few more colours!
TIP: I've found to make sure it doesn't crease after a while, that I need to powder my lids really well to absorb any oil and to use a concealer brush blended well on my hand first before application.
Bold Gold - The main thing I didn't like about this was the color and the sparkles in it. It does not look good on my blue eyes whatsoever. I also find that the formula (unlike bad to the bronze) is hard to spread on my eyes - it's very chunky and splotchy. I would not purchase this color again.
Bad to the Bronze - I like the colour and it blends better than the gold colour. It's not as bronzy as I would like it to be though.
I was totally against using cream shadows until a friend recommended this to me. I instantly fell in love with it. I bought the asphalt color and it makes a beautiful match for any smoky eye. This product does not smudge and it does not crease and wear off. In fact, the first night I used this product it was a torrential downpour outside where I was walking, and I was for certain that by the time I got to where I was going my makeup was going to be a mess. I was so wrong! It looked just the way it did when I left my room, and then when I went to bed that night and woke up the next morning it was still on. That is what I call a great product! USE IT!
these are the best cream shadows i've ever used. with a shadow on top, it's pigmented and long lasting. they're crease resistant to an extreme, so u can even wear them on their own. even so, they aren't hard to blend and apply creamily. really love them. they retail around $7 USD but u can find then around $5 in certain stores and maybelline always has coupons. definetely recommend them.
