I love a good cream shadow. BE's Stay There and Bobbi Brown are among my favorites, so when I started hearing internet chatter that Elf had Cream Shadows that rivaled Bobbi, I had to test them out.I picked up all four cream shadow shades:Candlelight - a light highlighter colorBronze - a golden bronzeDawn - a taupe-y brownEggplant - a medium purpleI didn't expect much, as drugstore brand cream shadows always fail my lids.I am happy to report that these were surprisingly really nice! They don't pack a serious color punch the way other cream shadows might, but they do add a nice wash of color to the lid. Most importantly, when used with a primer (does anyone NOT use a primer?) they don't crease. They will fade over time, but they wear much better than I had expected for $3 shadows! The Candlelight is definitely my favorite!They also play nicely with mineral or pressed shadows to help intensify the color of the shadows. So don't forget to try using them as a base for the shadow to stick to (after prepping with a primer!).
