this is the eyeshadow I used to use for my everyday look before I switched to Maybelline's expert eyes in Vanilla. (which I like much better). i'm a very pale skinned girl, so I like white/off white/pale eyeshadows for my everyday look, and I thought this one would do the trick. Not quite. It's very sheer, so i would not recommend it for an all over eyeshadow. I don't think I would even recommend it as a highlighter as it gets glitter EVERYWHERE. It ends up under my eyes, on my cheeks, all over the place. It chunks and flakes as you blink, making a mess. It creases, too, but not as badly as some other eyeshadows I've used in the past. This isn't the world's worst eyeshadow, but it's not the best, either. I wouldn't recommend it.

I use this solely as a highlighter on my browbone and nothing else and it works really well for that. It's a very sheer, slightly shimmery white. I used to use it as my inner eye corner highlighter as well but I have switched to Ulta brand kohl eyeliner in Halo for that.
This eyeshadow is extremely sheer and it takes a very long time to build up color. If you just want a bit of highlight, that's easy enough but if I want white on my eyelid or a stronger white, I use either NYX eyecrayon in milk as a base and go from there, or another white eyeshadow altogether because this one is just too much hassle to get a strong white color.

Snow Blossom is a creamy white color that is very shimmery. Its a beautiful color, but it isn't very pigmented. It's usually about $4.50 at most stores. It's okay, not wonderful, but not awful.

This is chalky and disgusting. No color, just shimmer.

CoverGirl Eyeshadows are usually hit, or miss, and this is definitly a miss, no pigmentation, just a glittery mess. Wouldn't repurchase.

Super chalky. Slight shimmer to this eyeshadow. Doesnt show up on skin, even with a primer. I try to make use of it since I bought it. I'll occasionally use it as a Highlighter but it's not an item I'll instantly grab from my makeup bag. Will not repurchase.

I purchased Snow Blossom because of the good reviews and the price, but I was disappointed. I think that Snow Blossom has been reformulated, because mine is not matte, it's sparkly. It started out as a white highlighter and then quickly faded into a clear glitter sheen. I really wanted to like this because CG has really amped up their quality, but this one just didn't work for me.

This eyeshadow is useless, I bought it years ago and almost forgot I had it till I found it recently. It was barely used and I wonder why cause the pigmentation is so bad and it's chalky. I put my finger on it and did a few swipes, the surface felt hard and there was only a sheer layer of color on my finger, wiped it on my hand and the color did not even show up. I'm pretty sure I got it for dirt cheap but nevermind that, I don't even think I can find a use for it. Waste!

The fact that I have hit pan should say something for it. Its a good matte white shadow. As with all of my shadows, I do use a primer first. I have used this as a shadow all over my lid on lighter days, but usually I use it at my highlight for below brow bone and on the inner corners of my eyes. It is buildable, but takes several layers to get a good "white" if thats what you're looking for. It is a bit powdery, but I also generally expect this from DS brands. Would I repurchase? Yes, but I also think there are better alternatives out there.

My skin is VERY pale and this is the only color I can use as a highlighter. Not even silver works for me, I'm SO glad I saw this in the store and grabbed it. I'd like it more if it had better staying power but reapplying isn't a big deal for me.

This is a great matte white shadow for highlighting and brightening.
I use this all over my eye area before I add colour to my lid.
Gives me a wide awake large eyed look.
Goes on easily and stays all day, I do use a primer and there is no creasing.
I also like the double ended sponge applicator, it picks up quite alot of product and places it exactly where you want it and not all over your undereye area.
The colour can be as sheer or deep as you like just apply extra until you get the desired effect you are looking for.
Good price and performs much better than more expensive shadows I have purchased.
I use this one alot!!
Big thumbs up from me.

I purchased this when it was a matte white shadow. I understand that it is now sparkley. No matter; it still sucks; it goes on sheerly and fades quickly. I also don't like the packaging and the size and shape of the pan (very unsuitable for depotting, but who would want to?). Not good; cannot recommend; will not repurchase. Blehhhhhhh.

I bought this color because I could not for the life of me find a nice matte white, so I setteled for this color. I hate it. I used it enough to see the pan but I only use it because I don't have anything else. It's so shimmery/glittery that it just looks like hooker makeup on my eyes. And it's so dense you can't even see the color when I swipe it, so I have to use so much to even make it noticable. It's also really hard to use this with other colors because it doesn't blend well and it just gets all over the place. Again, with the CG eyeshadows, they are garbade and I don't recommend this to anybody. It's an awesome price, but I'm sure you can find something better.

This has no color! I put it on and all I end up with is the glitter unless I use a cream shadow under it to make it stick. I should have known, it's Cover Girl. Won't be buying this again let alone any other CG products.

I bought this thinking it would make a really pretty highlighter on my browbone. It looked like a shimmery white in the packaging, but once applied it was mostly invisible. And I don't apply eyeshadow with a light hand! All I could see was a little shimmer if I looked at my eyes in the right light. The staying power is awful too. I applied this at 7am and by about 8 I couldn't even tell I had put this on. I have only ever found one CG eyeshadow I like that actually has enough pigment to last for a few hours on me, and this isn't it. Not worth buying.

im a dark bronze brown and i use this as a a brow highlighter...it works great for that but i think it is too chalky and grainy for me to use as an eyelid shadow....but other that that its ok......lasting power is not that great either so u should reaply after a few hours....the packaging sucks.....but overall its an ok product
