LAURA MERCIER METALLIC CREME EYE COLOUR
TWMichello (160 reviews)

In creme shadow land, this is the Queen Bee. There are several other brands that do a decent creme shadow - NARS, BB, MAC, Benefit all come to mind. However, each of those brands have their issues. Some crease, some are too dry and hard to work with or blend. Not LM, the formula is light and creamy and goes on with a swipe of a finger. The application is effortless - you don't even need a brush. Yes, the tube looks small, but there is a ton of product there. If you used it everyday, I doubt you would run out in a year. The shade Alloy is perfection - a taupe with a lovely subtle sheen. If you are in the market for a new creme eyeshadow in taupe, give this one a try. A gorgeous mauve/ taupe cream shadow that DOESN'T crease!!!. It has a metallic finish, but it isn't over the top, it looks very sophisticated and can be worn during the day if sheered out. I love the way this compliments my blue eyes, it's very pretty and wears beautifully on me for a good 8 hours. A very expensive little tube, but a tiny amount covers both eyes so it will last and last. Very impressed with this product from Laura Mercier. This is very nice. The color is a beautiful twinkly taupe that I bet would look great on every eye color (i have dark brown eyes). It has a soft, silky, creamy texture, and a little goes a long way. I think this little tube will last me a while even though I am planning to use this as my every day eyeshadow. It looks just beautiful on my lids. I am planning to repurchase. I am now curious in the rose gold color as well. Why did I not try this sooner?? I do wish they would make a set of all of these in mini tubes for those of those who are indecisive, or interested in trying all the shades. I first discovered the metallic creme eye colour watching the Pixiwoo Nicole Sherzinger make up tutorial, they used burnished copper. So off I went to get burnished copper but instead came home with alloy. I am a NW20 with blue eyes and this makes my eyes look really blue. I wear it applied with my finger during the day and with a brush for a stronger look. It really lasts and the finish is lovely. I will definately be purchasing burnished copper next. On the whole, I am never disappointed with LM. — 1 month, 2 weeks ago

Long Lasting
SubCulture (228 reviews)

I have this in Platinum, a lite nude/beige shimmer. I apply the smallest amount on lids & it intensifies the powder eye shadows I layer over it & keeps eye shadow in place all day! — 3 years ago

A Good Buy
ShanthiDevi (90 reviews)

This comes in a tube and a dot goes a long way. The colors are beautiful. You do not have to prime eyes for this as it seems to have that built right in. The color lasts all day till you remove it. I have this in 3 colors but recently gave one to a friend as I decided the color was not for me. — 2 months ago

Nice but pricey
liz48170 (43 reviews)

Nice. Very pricey for what you get. I ended up liking Buxom and Benefit cream better as it was a bit more sheer and natural looking. This though is good stuff — 11 months, 2 weeks ago

Rose Gold!
25MOMO25 (93 reviews)

I have the Rose Gold color and it's quite unique because it has a rose and gold (sometimes orange tint). It's very lovely worn alone or under any eyeshadow. I don't need to prime my eyes when using this because it does not budge. I have had this product for 2 yrs so it lasts a long time. I would definitely buy more colors. — 1 year, 5 months ago

Okay
emmasgrandma50 (5 reviews)

Considering the rave reviews for this product, I'm starting to believe I'm just not a cream shadow kind of lady. I have some fine lines on my lids and this only accentuates them. Ended up giving to my daughter who loves it. Us older gals should probably stick to the powder shadows. — 2 years, 9 months ago

Creaseless, Long lasting Eye colour
Elessaria (53 reviews)

I love this product! It glides on smoothly, lasts all day and doesn't crease like many cream shadows. The metallic is more shimmery than glittery. The platinum shade is perfect if you're fair and want a fuss-free minimal make up look for the summer. — 3 years ago

The best eyeshadow
puddyrun (4 reviews)

I received a free sample of the platinum and have since bought several more. It is THE best eyeshadow as it blends beautifully,looks sheer and natural,yet you can build it up. It is the only eye shadow that will stay on during intense runs. I run many road and track races throughout the year and this is the only shadow that stays put. I love to buy budget if possible but no way will I buy any other shadows. No budge,smudge,easy to blend. No negatives except pricey but absolutely worth it and it takes only a tiny bit. — 3 years ago

Shadow Primer or Crease-Free Shadow
HookedOnBeauty (127 reviews)

Whether you're looking for a quick shadow you can sweep on using your fingertips, or for a solid primer to build powder shadow on, nothing rocks my world like this cream shadow. There is no creasing even on the oiliest of lids. It's also good for a mature eye because of the creamy consistency and it doesn't settle into fine lines. — 3 years, 10 months ago

Amazing
JJis42 (101 reviews)

I got this as a sample from Sephora and I was amazed at the results. It goes on easily and no creasing and lasts all day. I am in my early forties and have to be careful about shimmer shadows and this is the best ever. I will be buying the other available colors on my next trip to Sephora! — 3 years, 10 months ago
