    MAC's CCBs seem to be hit or miss - I personally love to use Pearl as an e/s base. It locks pigment and shadow on for hours and hours without creasing or changing the shade of the shadow at all. ...

    I have this in luna frost, all i can say is that i cannot leave the house w/o it, it is my ultimate highlighter, sometimes i blend it in w/ vapour, it depends what shadow i have on.

    Yes this cream does crease, but I have not found any cream eyeshadow that doesn't yet so no real complaints. I never use it as an eyeshadow by itself but as a base. It brings out the pigments in my...

    I love the idea of these, but they were just too greasy and crease-prone on my very oily skin. I think these would rock on dry skins, but they really need to get the formula right for us oily...

    I would not use these alone as eyeshadows. I have Shell, and I use it as an eyeshadow base. I apply a very very thin layer before applying my powder eyeshadows. The CCB really grabs the colour...

    I have slick and it works great for my asian eyes. I don't have much of a crease so I don't have a problem with creasing. The staying power is great b/c of the flat surface of my eyelids. I wear...

    I just bought these in Silver and Slick for my eyes. These do tend to crease on me as other reviewers have said. But all in all, they're not that bad.

    I have tried these in Root, Quartz and Slick and they are all great colours but be warned (and thankfully MAC has clued into this with a little disclaimer note in each box now) that not all shades...

    I find the Cream Colour Bases a little difficult to work with. They crease if you apply them to the eye area also. I only really like Fresco. Its a warm coral pink. It works on the lips or cheeks....

    Ewww. Ewww. This creased before I even applied them! Well, I am exaggerating, but not by much. What is the point of these things again? Anyone with slightly oily skin avoid these.

    For no particular reason, I don't find myself using these much. I don't dislike them, but I guess I'm not totally in love with them either. The first one I bought was when a MAC MA showed me how...

    I didn't appreciate how great this product is until I started using it as an eye shadow base. I've been using Shell for several months and apply nearly any shadow color over it for lasting wear. ...
