Answer 1

Hello!

Creamy eyeshadows depending on your skin type will go good on women with drier skin... because it's moist and thicker applied than powdered eyeshadows.

The best creamy eyeshadows I've seen and used is the one you are using Revlon in the 4 pack AND Rimmel's creamy eyeshadows.

For hazel green eyes... browns and golds look awesome on your eye color. Try any eyeshadows even with a hint or swab of your blush color on your inner part of your lid... and a neutral color on your brow bone (under your eyebrow).

Powdered eyeshadows that goes well are MAC (of course) and in budget conscience pockets is NYX at Rite Aid, Walgreens, etc...

I think both are good. Cream is good if you plan on wearing one shade, at least in my opinion. Powder is good for two or more colors because its easy to blend with. It just depends on what look you will be aiming for. I'm not sure if they will be discontinuing cream shadow, I haven't heard that before. I use Revlon too. I think its a good brand cuz I wore a purple shade from the Va Va Bloom quad and it stayed on all day. If you're interested in spending a little more money you could buy some from Stila, Mac, Urban Decay or brands like those. They are professional quality and stick true to their promise.

You can still get a great look with drugstore shadows though. Buy an eyeshadow primer or use concealer. Apply it all over your lid and blend well before applying eyeshadow. You see, eyeshadow tends to fade and run and get all messed up because you sweat and the makeup has nothing to cling to. With a primer you have a smoother canvas for your eyeshadows and it will make it last longer as well as keep it from creasing.

'Hope this helps!!

Answer 4

when I really want my eyeshadow to stay all day and all night, I use a primer/concealer first, then a cream, and then a powder over the cream that matches (or is close) to the color of the cream.

Answer 5

Well for me, cream eyes shadows crease much sooner.

They look kind of cakey in my opinion.

I stay with the pressed powder eyeshadows.

I dont really like the loose pigment eyeshadows either.

creamy goes on easier and you can actually see where your putting it. powder is good too, but its a little more tricky. and if you have kinda oily skin, powder disappears over time
