I know other's have had issues with this eyeshadow, but I have used it differently. I use this as an eyeshadow base & I bought the "Black Magic" shades which include white, black, pink and silver. The colors are not great and I would never use these alone as eyeshadows but since I don't want them to be a total waste I use them as bases and I've been satisfied with that.

I read good and bad reviews from these eye shadows before purchasing but still want it to try them so bad plus they were only $5 bucks each, so I got two. The colors are so pretty and couldn't decide which ones to get but ended up getting Not Just Nudes and Copper Canyon. I was aware that these do crease, and well yeah they do so they don't last at all. I hate reapplying make up so I will be returning these back after trying one of them out and didn't like the results. That's what happens when you love make up and have curiosity still after reading bad reviews. Don't recommend these, might as well go for some that will last and be worth buying in any price range.

The only lovely thing from these eye shadows are the colors and that's what catches the buyers attention and that's what caught mine and made me want to buy.

I purchased the Revlon Illuminance Creme Shadows in Precious Metals and Skin Lights. When I saw that they provided 4 cream shadows in one, I not only thought it was economical, but also convenient for creating many eyeshadow looks. These make a great base for your powder eyeshadows (I also put a primer on the lid prior to applying the cream shadow). The colors go on smoothly and blend out well. Some of the colors are more sheer than others and there are a few shades that do not contain any shimmer. I find the shimmer to be subtle enough and it does not interfere with the powdered eyeshadow you put on top of it.
Without a primer on the lid, these cream shadows tend to crease (however, I haven't yet found a cream shadow that doesn't), but when I applied the primer, it seemed to stay put. These are also convenient if you do not have a lot of time in the morning and want to look put together and presentable. Just a swipe on the lid and you can perk up your look in an instant. However, just make sure you blend it in very well. The colors are great for everyday use.
These did not irritate my eyes and the products have been lasting me quite a while. You really don't need very much on the lid for the regular shadows to grab onto. I would consider buying this again.

I have this in both wild orchids (lavender, purples) and precious metals. I like how easy they are to apply and the shimmery colours. They are very blendable, which I really enjoy. I find that with 1 or 2 applications, it's a very nice day time look and with more applications, the richer the colour, it becomes a night time look. The downside is that even after I use my make up remover and my face wash, there can still be glitter on parts of my face. It is a very affordable and easy to use eyeshadow.

Phenomenal! I got home a swatched these and they all are dupes for mac paint pots. Dupes for rubenesque, indianwood, bare study & quite natural. They are creamy and smooth to put on. And they last all day WITH OR WITHOUT a base. It was on sale for 8.99$ which is 1/3 of the price of a paint pot. After using this color quad I will definitely be purchasing the other color quads. This is one of the BEST dupes I have ever seen. I definitely recommend purchasing this quad if you are looking to buy mac paint pots. SAVE YOUR MONEY & get the same quality guaranteed.

I got this quad in Precious Metals. I've been using it almost everyday since, mostly for class but a few times for going out as well. I find the colors go on much shearer than I expected, but it lives up to the promise of gliding on smoothly. I don't find it lasts a very long time, but I don't mind having to reapply. The only thing I really dislike is that with some of the colors, especially the grey, there is a lot of glitter that gets all over my face. Sometimes I use the skin colored creme shadow as a base for a powder shadow, which I find sets it really well.
Overall, it's quick and easy to apply and can really brighten up your eyes!

I agree with Artsy... This is a beautiful colour palette that makes my blue eyes stand out like crazy. The creamy texture is easy to blend, and you can create so many different effects. But the eye shadow just doesn't last. Within a couple hours, the colour and shimmer have faded, so you have to re-apply throughout the day to keep the effect going. Which, for me, is a pain in the arse. But it's a cheap and pretty product, and if you don't mind re-applying, it's worth it.

I love this colour palette!!.... and for a small purchase you get gorgeous soft naturals, beiges and browns, all with a hint of gold shimmer...and I do mean hint!!....they go on easy....very smooth, very silky, and the colours are perfectly put together so you can blend and mix them. However.....and this is the one huge draw back to these eye shadows....they do not last all day!! Even with an eye lid primer, they do not last. They end up in the crease of your eyelid after only a couple of hours. I don't have oily skin, and I use a good eye lid primer (Urban Decay), but even it couldn't help these little jewels from creasing. I would reccomend it for the money, and for the colours, and if you can get it to not crease, it would be worth every penny. If you do.....let me know what your secret is!!
