Revlon Illuminance Crème Shadow, Not Just Nudes

I wanted a light eyeshadow to put over the whole eyelid for an easy loook but after 20 minutes this settles into the creases since I have hooded eyes. I've experimented a bit but it's not really for me. It could work a lot better if you also use a eye primer and setting spray or if your eyes are a lot less hooded/dont have a crease in the lid.

Colour not working well

Good shimmer colours

Disappointing - I had high hopes for this product but it was way way way shiny - not good if you have crepy or hood eye lids. Would suit younger skin

I like that this is exactly what it is supposed to be. This is the eyeshadow I have been using ever since they started making it about 30 years ago. I have changed but it has not. The color scheme is still exactly like it's supposed to be. (I notice that, because I always wish they would replace the lightest one whichb is beige with another dark brown one that is darker than the darkest one now. I have been wishing that ever since they started making it. The beige one pretty much goes unused.) But I am sure it was popular back in those days when everybody was going for shiny shadow and partying at discos. Everybody except me I guess. It would take more than getting my wish for a deep taupe cream eyeshadow to complement to go to a disco. Not to mention if I did get there they would card me and reject me for being too old! But no, they always stick to the same 5-color palette, and I have never once bought it and gotten a beat batch, when it was dried out or crumbly or even smeared on the lid. That is very important when you send away. This product is always very nice and creamy, does not crease or start flaking when you have worn it for a while, slides on smooth and comes off when you want it to with no struggle or drag. It's also very natural-looking, unlike many of the colors out there nowadays. One kit lasts a long time, and I just use my fingertip to pat it on. (Don't do that if you're sharing it. Your fingers are filthy.) Very nice little product. Thought went into the product and the package, and it is not wasteful. I would pay $1 more for a mirror in the lid but I can get by with this design. When these sets first came out, I remember wanting to scoop up every single assortment they made, because it was unusual to have these colors in cream form. I think Yardley might have been their only competition and everything else was powder that was a mess. I binged and tried four or five combos. I liked the set with violet and pink shades, and the one with a mossy green, but I don't know what they were thinking when they chose "complementary" colors to go with. I think one was orange. Yikes. That is not even acceptable for hazel or gray eyes. And I think really everybody got that beige I was complaining about. As a person with very basic, normal, medium brown eyes skewed just a little toward gold, like maple syrup, this is the best mix for me, and it is the most neutral of the kits so anyone can use it. When I was younger and my face was fuller, I found that I could also use this cream shadow for contouring around the bridge of my nose, as a cheekbone highlighter, and that old beige I was trashtalking works as under- eye concealer the under in a pinch. You could not get that much flexibility out if the other assortments where lot of the other sets because they are not colors that occur in nature, more exotic, but these basics work for that. So you don't have to carry much in your purse except this kit, mascara, lip gloss and a Maybelline eyebrow pencil. You are natural but done, and that whole combo comes in around $20 and takes up no more space than the eyeshadow compact by itself. Good to know you can still get a product you like and have liked for a long time at a reasonable price. No offense to Asia but don't waste your money on cosmetics from Asia. They are always, ALWAYS empty or dried out and stuck in the container when you get them, and unlike most Asian versions of products, they ain't cheap. So this American says get the same winner you know you will be happy with, over and over again until they haul you away. I guess this eyeshadow and L'Oreal Voluminous mascara are my version of my grandmother's Noxzema and my mother's "blue-red" (meaning true red) matte lipstick. A future classic. Aren't we all?

Pratique à utiliser. J'aime beaucoup les couleurs. Reste en place toute la journée. Seul regret : la quantité trop faible pour le prix.

Molto buono il prodotto, si stende bene e non appiccica.
