Love this cream eyeshadow in Black Pearl
PostedNovember 26, 2010
Proslong-lasting, worth the price!
I use this cream shadow in Black Pearl, I love it. I do not think it's too much glitter or shine it is metallic looking as the description says, use a good quality brush to apply, not your finger. It is easily "build-able" from somewhat sheer to nearly opaque, depending on how you apply it. I've used this shade almost everyday for about a year now either by itself or as sort of a shadow primer with powder eyeshadow over it, it stays on very well and for me does not crease and lasts all day. I love this eyeshadow and always get compliments on my eye makeup when I do wear this shade. I even had one of the girls at the Nordstrom perfume counter ask if I had just gotten my eye makeup done while making a purchase in one of the stores she was surprised when I told her I did it myself at home and that it was only one shade I used. I would def say you have to work a bit quickly when applying it because it does set a bit fast but lasts all day and night! The shade is not black at all but more of smoky golden sort of gray(sounds odd but it's very pretty!), it almost seems to change color depending on the light. My eyes are brown and my skin tone is light-medium and this color works great on me. My BF says my eyes look like "melted chocolate" when I wear this.

Proseasy to blend, long-lasting, gorgeous, feels great, bling
I finally found it! The love of my life cream shadow (black pearl) that DOES stay on all day and looks alive hours later! Definitely apply with a good quality brush and there you have it...instant bling, luxury and sparkle on the eyes.

Glitter everywhere
PostedAugust 4, 2010
Prosghastly, glittery, childish, poor quality
The colors may look nice in the pots and I like the idea of long-wearing shimmer shadows, but in reality, it does NOT work. All that is visible on the eyelids is glitter, loads and loads of glitter, regardless how carefully you apply the shadow and what method you use (cream eyeshadow blush or finger). And the glitter gets EVERYWHERE, it doesn't just stay on the eyelids, but gets on the cheeks, eyebrows, eyelashes and in the eyes, etc. The result was the look of a toddler who played with a glue stick and a pot of glitter and it took multiple attempts to wash it all off (be forewarned, the glitter spreads when you try to wash it off, you'll end up with glitter in your hair as well!). I bought the pink oyster and surf (blue) as part of the beach collection (under the guise of shimmering colors, not heavy metal!). They'll be returned tomorrow. I'm now hesitant to even try the powder shimmer eyeshadows; who knows what shimmer versus metallic means anymore!
