Most Helpful Positive Review

Best cream eyeshadow in the game

I love this! I received it as a Diamond Perk, so TY Ulta, this is amazing. Ok. So let's clear up some of the nonsense going on in some of these reviews. This is a GREAT cream shadow. It's crazy lightweight and easy to blend, even easier to build. Super long lasting. The little glass pot has .19oz of... product (even tho the site description says .11oz). For comparison, Nyx Foil cream e/s has .07oz, Tarte Chrome Paint Pots have .11oz., and Mac Pro Paint Pots have .17oz. So for those claiming Lorac has only a small amount of product, pls have all the seats. What it DOES have is a small footprint, so reviewers may be having a knee-jerk reaction to Lorac's responsible and less wasteful packaging over some other brands (looking at you, Tarte). The packaging is glass, and sturdy, and closes nice and tight. I chose the Velvet shade as my Perks gift, and it's a lovely cool-to-neutral toned medium depth brown. I've been using it on my bottom lash line on top of darker eyeliners, as well as deepening my outer V. It's insanely easy to blend and build, and I had to be careful bc I'm used to other creams that take more work to build evenly or diffuse, and this one does it all so easily and seamlessly, I couldn't believe it. The huge drawback is its 4 month shelf life (per packaging). This little pot has so much product, that it'll be a challenge to use it all up in that time frame. I hope Lorac rethinks this and adds whatever it needs to to the formulation to extend its rec'd shelf life, or puts out smaller amounts of product that can be used up in that time. It's overall the best cream shadow in the game. I've love to see them extend the color range bc it's truly an amazing eyeshadow. < 3
