Comments about elf Cosmetics Duo Eye Shadow Cream:
I got this product in one of my very first ELF orders and I absolutely hated it. I tried it alone and it creased. I also tried it with the elf primer, and it still creased. It just creased like crazy and I could not use it. Only until now, have I dared pull it out of my collection and give it another try. Now, I'm actually pretty fond of the product. The trick is that you absolutely MUST use a really good primer and you must use a very very thin layer of this product and you must top it with a shadow. This is a pretty high maintenance product and does not work at all without a good primer and shadow.

This cream eyeshadow is really great, apply it after you have applied your eyeshadow primer, use this eyeshadow as a base for your powder eyeshadow, it truly gives your eyeshadow a beautiful look.

Comments about elf Cosmetics Duo Eye Shadow Cream:
I recommend these for a young girl just starting to get into makeup or even for a kid who likes to play dress up and wear makeup to play in. But NOT to someone who is trying to get a good, long lasting look. These creams only show up and last long when they're paired with their powder counterparts. I originally got these for use when traveling because they're so small. But I wouldn't suggest these to anyone looking for a strong makeup that lasts long. These were clearly an attempt to dupe the High intensity pigments from a certain other retailer or whatever they're called. A fail on elf's part unfortunately.

Comments about elf Cosmetics Duo Eye Shadow Cream:
I've been using these as a base for other colors and oh my goodness it does wonderful things for my eyes. When you use primer with it and then apply another show on top, the coor in the shadow pops like nothing else and stays all day! I'll also wear these alone when I'm prsssed for time, and they look beuatiful by themselves, but they will crease if you don't wear primer

Comments about elf Cosmetics Duo Eye Shadow Cream:
Over all this product is fantastic! It blends super well, and with primer stays for a long time. It does how ever kinda clump when you first apply it, but its very easily fixed.

I have Mocha Swirl and I love it. I am going to buy more. I use them with a primer so they don't crease. Good pigmentation, true to color, blends well.

Comments about elf Cosmetics Duo Eye Shadow Cream:
I originally got this with the expectations to use an eyeshadow. When it came in the mail, and i tried it on, i realized very quickly that wasn't going to be the case. I got the Coffee & Cream and i use the white color under my eyes as a highlight as well as on my cheeks. it looks great!! i love it and now it's in my everyday routine. being that it's not very pigmented, serves as a good thing for me because it just gives my skin the little extra that it needs. i use the darker color over my contour color (if i contour that day) and it gives it that dewy look.
overall, i would say buy this product but not for a eyeshadow lol
