This review is for the color "Halo" a shimmery GOLD. Looks great on my skin, just gorgeous. Great stuff, easy to apply and great color payoff. Can lay it on "thick" for deeper color or blend it with a brush and/or your finger for a sheer wash. Almost shimmery, dries fast and good staying power. LOVE the colors! this one is a taupe-y beige that just looks wonderful in my crease!
I have 3 more colors (see my other reviews) and I love them ALL. Fantastic product, and sooo easy to work with!

I really want to like this eye shadow - - love the colors, can't beat the price, but I have bought two "tubes" and both are so dried out I can barely get anything out of the tube. Maybe I got product that was past it's prime. Again, the gold-ish colors are perfect for me, I just wish it wasn't such a struggle getting them out of the tube and on the eyelid.

These are great!
I bought the black and dark navy ones.
Love the black, but the navy did crease on me.
I love to do a smoky eye with the black. Here's how:
Apply a thin, even layer and wait for it to dry.
Then apply your powder eyeshadow (any color will do! I used a dark green by milani.)
The shadow creme acts as a primer and adds a little zing to the powder eyeshadow, as well.

These are highly pigmented. I didn't have too much of a problem with creasing. The shade I bought was a gourgeous, deep, shimmery navy. Good for a smokey eye or lining.

I don't know if I got a bad tube or what but this stuff is so thick and pasty I can't get it to go on evenly at all. Very disappointed.

I love these! A stellar MUAer's reviews led me to these, and I'm glad I found them. These creme eyeshadows are available in great colors at very reasonable prices. The texture is very smooth. I find that these stay moist for a little while once applied on eyelids. They do crease after a while, but since they are a more creamy texture than creme eyeshadows in pots, I would expect some creasing.
I own: Smoke (deep grey); Gorgeous (medium grey-purple); Sultry (deepest red-brown); Allure (deepest wine-plum); Captivating (deep navy blue); Sand (light-medium beige-taupe); and Earth (medium golden-olive-khaki). All of these have very pretty shimmer, though I find some colors to be more sheer in application than others.

I was a little bit skeptical of this product at first since it is a drugstore cream eyeshadow, and also because it comes in a wand-style tube instead of a squeeze-tube. But the reviews are right on, this stuff is great. The colors are also very fun (I have halo, a very warm golden-coppery color). If you love MAC paints, Lancome Color Dose, etc. you really should check these out.

Bargain - on sale for $1.99. So it was okay that I was a tad disappointed when Sand appeared a bit darker than expected (ordered it on a whim from walgreens.com). Still, the consistency and lasting power was rather good. And the wand applicator wasn't too cumbersome. For the price, definitely worthwhile.

I have two shades: deep olive and copper/gold, both with gold shimmer. The colors are rich and go on smoothly. They also dry a little quicker than some creme shadows I've tried, which seems to reduce smearing and creasing. A bargain at $2.99 each!

This caught my eye & I thought I would try it out-this is liquid/cream e/s that comes in a tube form w/ a wand style applicator- just like a lip gloss! That I thought was pretty cool! I got number "2280", which is a pearly, slightly metallic, soft beigey-brown. Really nice-it went on nice & smooth- goes on a little darker than appears in the tube, but I liked that. Felt great on- very smooth & silky, no burning (like you can get w/ some cream e/s's)- and the best part? Only $2.99!! I would love to get some more- but unfortunately- it didn't look like there would be any other shades I can wear- some beautiful golds, greens, & reds/burgundy's- but none I can wear with my cool toned PPP skin- but if they make any more brown shades- I'll definitelty re-purchase! :) UPDATE!(1/26/03) I just found another wearable shade in this line when I went home for the weekend- found & bought "2129" a rich dark chocolate brown color with reddish-bronze tones in it- really pretty! GREAT drugstore find!! I highly recommend! :)
