Advantages: It creates a nice shimmy effect.

Disadvantages: It isn't an easy product to apply well.

I decided to give this product a go because I occasionally mix my eyeshadows with Vaseline and I wanted to see what a cream-based eyeshadow would be like. However I was quite disappointed with this product, I didn't think the applicator was very easy to use and I found that once I'd managed to gain an even coverage (which was difficult) it creased shortly afterwards.

As with most products in the Body Shop range, this item contains lots of natural ingredients. The Body Shop website says this product has "light diffusing particles and pearl pigments provide shimmer and sparkle which highlight the skin and help to disguise fine lines around the eye area." I would agree with the first part of this statement and I did like the shimmery look the product initially created, but I've not persevered with it long enough to know if it combats fine lines.

Applying makeup isn't something that comes naturally to me, but if you are a pro at applying cream eyeshadow and you like the colours on offer in the Body Shop range, then you should give it a go.

Summary: Only buy this if you are an eye cream applicator pro!
