    I love this but don't use it as a blush or eyshadow base but as a browbone highlighter. It works great with my C3 skin and adds a gorgeous sheen to my brow area.

    I'm not a big fan of their Cream Color Bases. I find them to be too greasy and to have zero staying powder. Shell is basically a no color shimmer (at least on the skin). Not very exciting. ...

    I love this product for it's "sticky" abilities--it keeps my eyeshadow in place like no other...finally, I can get an intense, true color from eyeshadows that normally dust right off my...

    This is a great product, really versatile. It can be used to highlight, or as an eyeshadow. It is a cheaper, and no less wonderful, version of my HG creme eyeshadow, Quartz by Becca. It gives a...

    When I first got this I was a little puzzled about what to do with it. I bought it sight unseen and the color wasn't quite what I had imagined my highlighter shade should look like. It's a pale...

    I'm an NC30 and this makes the perfect neutral base for my pigments when I wear them as eye shadow. I know so many people have trouble with these creasing but you really only need the sheerest of...

    I am returning this. I told the MA I had very oily lids, so she suggested buying this and using a concealer base under it and powdering over it. I did this, and while it DID make my eyeshadow...

    I dunno why I even bought this cream color base... I originally thought it'll be good used on the lips... but it was way too frosty for that... I don't really use it on my lids nor for...

    So interesting to read how others use this color! I like bright or dark lips and subtle eyes most of the time, so I use it mostly as a lid wash up to the crease if I'm on a mad dash to get out and...

    Shell is a very light pink with champagne shimmer. I like dabbing this on my cheeks over blush, as a highlighter. Very pretty, and a more economical alternative to Nars Multiples.

    Shell is a very light pink with irridescent shimmer. It's not glittery or sparkly, just has a shimmer. I use this one mostly as a cheekbone area highlight.

    This colour is remarkably similar to Bobbi Brown Shimmer Cream Eyeshadow in Pale Pink, which I also own. It's a pale, icy pink with slight opalescence. The product itself is creamy, tending...

    I like to use shell as a highlighter on my cheek bones. I also use it to highlight my browbone. It gives a nice light shimmery effect.

    Line your lips with a nude pencil and fill the lips in with the Shell cream color and you have a sexy shimmery but clean lip look! Seal it in with a wee bit of clear lipgloss. I also love this on...

    Very shimmery face colors, as rule, don't look so great on me since my skin tends to throw off more than a little *shine* of its own. However, I like this particular product for using as a smidge...
