Review: Revlon Illuminance Creme Shadow

                                   

Let me start off by saying that it took me a while to purchase these. I would see these in the store and would eyeball them like crazy but would keep walking and would pick up something else. I  bought 2 different palettes but only because they were 40% off or else I would have passed. My local Walgreens generally has a pretty good collection of makeup but only had 3 of the 6 different palettes. That made me think that these were to die for. The two I picked up are Black Magic and Electric Pop..The colors in these palettes are gorgeous, very fashionable and vibrant. They are definitely feel good colors!

I've only really worn the Black Magic palette besides playing with it at home. The color payoff is decent but I did find that they are a little hard to work with, meaning blending is hard. These would probably work best if you are going for a cut crease look that doesn't require a ton of blending. Like I said I've only worn the Black Magic one and that was for a few hours and I did notice some heavy creasing after about an hour. I'm not ready to count these bad boys out just yet. I think I might have an idea on how to make it last a little longer so I will keep you ladies posted.

These would be good for beginners or for those who want to experiment with a little color without paying for top dollar shadows. They are really easy to wipe off so mistakes can be easily corrected. The total for both palettes was $6.40 on sale, so my advice would be to catch them on sale at Walgreens. The only reason I say Walgreens is because if you take them home and don't like them you can return them even after they're open!!

Black Magic

Keep in mind these are just my personal opinions and if you have anything that you think works better with anything that I review just share it with us. Makeup is a continued learning kind of field!!
