I wasn't sure if I would like this but I do! Knee High is a pretty goldy brown (borderline bronze) colour. It's great to use when I want a quick but pretty "out the door" eyeshadow. It's really easy to apply with the wand. I paid $10AU for this at an outlet store. I don't think I would buy it full price, but I will enjoy using it. I wouldn't purchase it again as UD isn't readily available in Australia & I have eyeshadow pigment which is this colour.

LOVE!!! This cream shadow is so gorgeous, it's just the perfect neutral bronzey earthy shade. It looks exactly like those tan shimmery looking pantyhose, lol! It's really easy to dab on and blend, and it lasts all day. I'm really into cream shadows lately, it's kind of like you skip a step, but still get the benefits of UDPP. This one's a keeper. It's clearance on ACW right now, if anyone's lemming it.

I bought this on UD's 30% sale (I think it was 30%) and it gave me a chance to try out their cream shadow! I got this in Knee High and I am in love. This is a perfect bronze base or wear-alone shadow for my MAC NC30 skintone. I already love UD Primer Potion and this cream shadow kind of smells like UDPP which would explain why it too lasts all day! This is easy to blend out on the edges, unlike a MAC paint pot, and feels very sheer on the lid and YET has such pigmentation! I love pairing this with Gorgeous Gold, Satin Taupe, and ANY other brown/gold eyeshadow! I was surprised at how much I liked this cream shadow since I did not like MAC Paints. I highly recommend this shade as it looks shimmery and pigmented and yet natural and goes well with lots of other colors! You can't go wrong.
This comes with a doe-foot wand which picks up just the right amount of product for one lid. Then I use my MAC 252 or my finger to blend it out on the edges! VERY easy to use.

This is a cream shadow with a doe foot type wand in a shimmery bronze color. This formula can either be applied thick or blended down. Either way, it lasts all day on me without creasing or moving as long as you let it dry. I'm ppp, combo/acne prone. This color is a bit dark on me unblended.

Love it! This shade has become my hg eyeshadow. It didn't crease at all, and even powder eyeshadows tend to crease on me. Lasts all day. Oddly enough, this was the only shade that worked for me. My only complaint, aside from the high price, is that this can feel a little "heavy" on your lids if you aren't used to wearing cream eyeshadow.

Another great shadow by Urban Decay! Lasts all day on me without creasing. This is wonderful in the summer when you want a pretty bronze glow but don't want to look all made up. The sponge tip applicator makes it easy to apply and it's super easy to blend. Will definitely repurchase.

My favorite eye product. Lasts all day, never creases. I love the color, I put a line of it under my bottom lashes and it looks awesome and stays forever.

I think that the Urban Decay Cream Eyeshadows are really great. I have been very pleased with my cream eyeshadow in Knee-High.


I like so many things about this shadow: First, it's easy to apply with the fuzzy-tipped applicator. Second, it doesn't crease or budge all day! This is VERY important to me, as most cream shadows crease like crazy. These also don't flake or fade at all.


The finish of Knee-High is unique and very shimmery. The shade is a shimmery bronze that sort of reminds me of..what else?...a knee-high stocking in a suntan shade! It brings out the green in my hazel eyes.


I'm very pleased with the Cream Eyeshadow and will definitely try it in other shades very soon!

This product looks GREAT blended with Urban decay Eyeshadow in Cherry. I was absolutely shocked by this product. I have never used a cream eyeshadow, this stuff didnt smear, didnt wear off, didn't smudge, was easy to apply-- just wonderful. The color is great for my tan skin, a bronzy shine. I was so impressed, this has become a staple of my makeup bag.

I've received tons of compliments when I wear this color. Knee-High is a stunning bronze cream shadow that to me, is easy to apply and stays put all day. It leaves a gorgeous finish on my lids. Comes in a little tube with a wand applicator. To me it's worth the high price tag. I love it!

I have two of these and love them both. I think they are a little pricey for the size but they wear all day on my oily lids with a base, and they are easy to work with. Knee high looks like a medium toned goldish copper color that is sort of cool toned- if that makes any sense at all... it is lacking in any red undertone at all, which is a good thing, as I cannot wear bronze or amber tones on my eyes. It looks really nice with brown e/l and pink highlighter.

Though this colour is a stunning deep coppery-bronze with a hint of shimmer (basically looks like a penny), it looks almost like sludge on my eyelids, which is such a bummer because I adore the shade so much. I've played around with it a bit and find that it works pretty nicely as a liner (I have the creme palette which makes it a little easier to apply this way!), but as a shadow it's really not for me.

OMGGG this is the coolest thing EVER! definitely one of my greatest buys xD the texture is to die for, the cream to shadow is something for you to experience yourself. this has ultimate staying power as well, it lasts the whole day. this color is natural but really out there too. i get a lot of compliments

Aside from the high price, I think that this is a great product. I deducted one lipstick for the $16 pricetag.
Knee-High is a shimmery (but not glittery) golden bronze with a slight olive/khahi tone. The colour is very similar to the middle shade in Stila's Bohemian Bronze trio.
UD's Cream is very easy to apply. For a subtle look I use the wand applicator to draw a line across my lid, then I dab my pinkie over it to blend and spread the shadow. This gives a nice sheer effect. For a more intense look you can apply with the wand and let it dry without as much blending/sheering out. It does take a couple minutes to dry completely, but once it's dry it doesn't seem to move.

I am very torn by this product. I have been DYING to try these... when I got my tube in the mail it was TINY! It is only .2 oz, which is smaller than a MAC paint. To put it in perspective, I got an Oil of Olay sample in the mail that same night that was .23 oz!! I am hoping that UD will drop the price (like they did with the liquid metal eyes). $16 for such a tiny tube is ridiculous - even $9 would be better. The size on the web site is about actual size. The plastic tube makes me worry - it looks like it might split easily, but I am going to give it the benefit of the doubt.

The actual product is pretty awesome. It is not a cream-to-powder formula. It is something I have never seen before. it does take a while to "dry" and yet it doesn't crease in the process. When it does dry it is very interesting.. like some kind of silicone/polymer or something! It is almost like a thin plastic sheet over your eye, but not in a constricting way - it is very light weight - can't even feel it! it seems to last a while, and doesn't irritate my recently sensitive eyes.

Knee-High is a shimmery golden bronze shade - pretty light. I will definately be buying more of these, but i suspect it is more because I am obsessed with Urban Decay than anything else. I still feel violated by the size-to-price ratio.
