Advantages: The colour.

Disadvantages: Everything.

**** Introduction ****

Having just received my new make up from the free money I had to spend at a body shop party, I am now spoiled for choice on what make-up to wear.

At the moment I am working my way through the forty four items I purchased, thanks to the host rewards system.

Today I got ready to go out for breakfast with my family, so I thought I would give this Body Shop cream eye colour a try.

**** The Eye Colour ****

On my first impressions I loved the colour as it was an ice blue ( Artic O3 shade ) I love to wear blues on my eyes as it seems to enhance the colour of them, anyway to be perfectly honest this is all I actually liked about it.

This is very small at only 8ml a tube so I feel that the 9.00 price tag attached to this is very expensive indeed, for a eye colour that will need to be re-applied every hour or so.

This little tube comes complete with its own application wand that is attached to the inside of the lid, I have to say this is very hand and makes application very easy, so you only need to sweep it across the lids and you are done.

Well in theory this very easy but the fact that this is a cream and not a powder makes the whole process very complicated, as it takes a while to dry and you need to keeps your eyes shut to avoid horrible lines appearing on you upper eye lids.

If you actually get this to dry alright, it will crumble off your lids within a few hours. If you are like me and have a few wrinkles this stuff sit in to them perfectly and makes them stand out a mile, so if this is something you want to hide I would avoid this at all costs.

**** My Views ****

This is a very expensive shadow that has no benefits what so ever, it applies quickly but takes ages to dry so you cannot apply it in a hurry.

I have found it to be very messy even after this had dried it kept on crumbling off of my eye lids and then fall onto my lashes, which was very annoying as I spend the whole morning picking at them.

I am so pleased that this was bought with my host rewards as I would have been really disappointed if I had paid for it with hard cash.

This is the worst cream shadow I have ever used so I do not recommend it to anyone.

Summary: Not at all recommended.
