Product Overview
The Queen is a unique shade that goes on as a light taupe with a slightly purple undertone. Once buffed out, the base shines through as a warm bronzed pink. Let it dry down without buffing out for a metallic cool look, or blend out for a warm look.
These shadows are made to dry down to a smudge proof finish, they are not waterproof but they will last all day on the lids.
How to Apply: Put a dab (a little goes a long way) on the back of your hand or makeup palette, and use a fluffy flat (not dense) lid brush, and brush it onto the lids. They do dry fairly quickly so work 1 eye at a time. After it has dried down, and you find that you have missed a spot or it isn't as perfect as you would like, don't be afraid to rub gently back and forth - seriously it won't mess it up.

PERFECTION!
LOVE THIS SHADE AND IT IS THE SECOND TIME I BUY IT

Wow this is the best one!
This shadows are perfect. Best of their kind. I have many shades and enjoy them all. This one is the best colour in my opinion. Shimery tope, like nothing else. So glad I picked it up, it is just perfect!

Stunning!
This shade is absolutely gorgeous! One of my favorites in my collection! When I don’t buff it out it is pretty true to the photo for me.

STUNNING
First of all, the picture does not at all represent the actual color and tone of the product. If I went by the picture I would never have purchased this cream. Thankfully I saw swatches someone else did online… this shadow is STUNNING!!! It’s this perfect light taupe color, I can’t even describe the color of the shift. I purchased several cream shadows in the last sale and this is BY FAR my favorite one. They are all good, but this is the perfect winter taupe. I have medium/light neutral skin with slightly peach tones, and green-blue eyes. This looks fabulous on me!

Absolutely Beautiful
I love this one! The product photo shows the tone of the foil (very similar to Cliff Jumping if you don’t want the base to be a different color), and the base blends out to a very warm brown tone. I love the depth and high impact shine of this shade. It couldn’t be easier to apply and is an instant glam look all on its own.

Beautiful but impossible to describe
I understand other reviewers' frustration about the color not matching the description, but the best description I can come up with is "shiny warmish neutral taupeish color." If you're looking for a neutral that doesn't look like shiny liquid metal (i.e., Boardwalk & Cliff Hanger). this one is definitely worth a try. I have pale skin & have found it difficult to find SG cream shadow shades that are okay to wear to work. This is my go-to daytime work shade. If you are only going to buy one SG cream shadow, I'd say go with Master Plan. If you're willing to spring for two, go for this shade.

Smooth application
I have tried a number of cream eyeshadows from high end to low end brands and nothing comes close to these shadows. They are pigmented, long-lasting, blend smoothly, and easy to use when in a hurry. If you try just one try The Queen the color is perfect. It is a metallic taupe with a warm undertone that blends to a brown tone and builds to a brighter taupe. It is a perfect nude shade. I love these for quick summer looks!

disappointed in color
Nothing like the picture. I know it isn't my monitor because the other shadow I purchased is dead on. This one was bronzy orange tan on me and the more I touched it on the skin, the more orange it went.

Eye shadow
Color appears to be more gold, I was hoping for more silver/pink. I also feel that it is more liquid compared to previous eye shadow.
