This is described on the site as "cream with shimmer" and it's true. It is. I was hoping and praying it would have more shimmer in it but it does not. It's a plain and safe shade that will easily go with other shadows.
Also the compact is tiny! I'm not sure if it was worth the $21 for it. We'll see.

A lovely neutral/base eyeshadow. I was concerned that this shadow might look like a harsh off-white, but it's more of a soft cream color. The shimmer is very subtle and barely shows--as another reviewer said, it creates a "glow" in the eye area. The texture is silky, it doesn't go cakey or crepey. Makes me look refreshed and awake. High quality staple e/s for me.

Looks like many other basic cream shadows out there, but somehow this one just suits my fair skintone the best! It has just the right amount of shimmer, too. I often wear it with Nepal in the crease. I think to reach perfection it would need to be a little more pigmented.

Edie is a great off white with shimmer. Great to use as a highlighter or as a base shade alone. The staying power is great and it goes with so many other shadows. If you are looking for a great off white shade with some shimmer, EDIE fits the bill!

Pale creamy chamgpagne shimmery eyeshadow. Looks simply amazing on alone or as a base. Colour isnt unique and can be purchased cheaper on other lines. Similar to MAc shroonm except for the texture of the shadow and its probably more shimmery than mac.

wont repuchase- only cos i have tons of similar colour such as this

Edie is a shimmery light beige shade that is perfect as a wash and as a base shade for me. Even when I wear it alone with just a liner, it definitely brightens up my eye area. It's a great shade but I know that there are other cheaper alternatives to the e/s. Overall, it is a great basic shade to have in your e/s collection.

This is a nice basic very slighly shimmery pale beige, good as a base or highlighter. It is fairly sheer so I find that I have to apply with my large eyeshader brush to get sufficient coverage. Nothing special on its own, but a useful everyday product combined with others. I picked it on Ebay for halfprice and would repurchase at that price, but don't think I would spring for full price for this one.

I have to add that this too is a staple. I was hesitant at first because it looked very shimmery in the case. It's just a beautiful, neutral shadow with more of a 'glow' than a glittery shimmer. Doesn't wash me out, but makes my eyes look naturally bright and alive. Sometimes this is the only shadow I need, but it's good to use as a base if you're on the fair-skinned side.

...Yet another neutral. I like this one! It really *is* a perfect base shadow color. Shimmery, shimmery, and it doesn't really look like you've even put anything on... which is exactly how what a base should be ;-D

I decided I had to get this b/c of all the great reviews. It's an off-white, creamy color, sheer powder w/ very subtle shimmer. Ok, as a color, it's not as exciting as I thought it would be, and yes it is very sheer, but for me, that's a good thing. Too much of this color looks chalky on my GGG/MMM skin, so sheer is good. It does a great job of lightening and brightening up my eye area. I guess I imagined something more astounding, it's not spectacular enough for me to drop $18 for a new one (if I ever use it up). UPDATE: Ok, I really do like this A LOT after all. I find myself using this everyday as a base color and just mascara. Wonderful! And yes, I probably would drop $18 for this shadow--when I use it up in 20 years!

This is my favorite, no-fail shadow. It's subtle and shimmery and lights up the eye area without looking like...well, shadow! I use this everyday, it's perfect.

Edie is a subtle, shimmering beige with golden flecks. The shimmer is very gentle, and this shadow is perfect for evening out skin tone, and illuminating tired eyes. If you loved All About Eve, this one's a must.

If you like All About Eve, you'd probably like this. A slightly shimmery beige, perfect as a base color and for effortlessly brightening the eyes.

I love Nars shadows, just not this one. The color is just a basic shimmer, didn't really do anything for me. I use this a a base color since it is too expensive to throw away. I will buy Nars shadows again, just not Edie.

This is my other favorite base shadow! A pale cream color with slight shimmer, it works with just about anything. It is the only NARS shadow I have that has a serious dip in it from all the use.

Edie is another great, versatile, neautral shade! A must-have e/s staple! It is a warm, shimmery "skin" color! I wear this shade all by itself on the weekends! Creates a perfectly natural look!
