The Scoop - Cream Shadow

I absolutely love the quality of these eyeshadows. They apply and blend so easily with your finger or a brush. I have 6 shades total and each one applies beautifully. However, I am disappointed with the color of this one. It is much darker and more of a charcoal/black with a green shift than the photo. I actually thought I got the wrong shade that’s how dissimilar it looks from the photo.

This cream eyeshadows are the perfect one and done eyeshadow that doesn’t take a lot of time it looks beautiful and stays on your eyes the whole day.

This was my first time trying cream shadows like these. After watching a few Youtube videos on the, I went ahead and ordered eight colors. This review is covering all 8 shades briefly below. Overall, I love these - but find that there is a learning curve. However, I really enjoy playing with them so I know that in time I will be able to master multiple quick looks with minimum cleanup required. You really really need to use a very small amount and apply in light layers. FYI, I am very deep skin tone - for reference Fenty 445/450 and I ordered a lot of the deeper shades as I was worried that the lighter shades would not work on me. However, I feel that I should dabble more in the lighter shades and will be adding more of them to my collection during my next order. Ok, on to individual shades from lighter to the deeper shades: The Scoop is hands down my favorite among the eight shades. It is a bronzy taupe with hint of olive and this one I love all by itself on my lids just buffed out up to the crease. This is definitely my fave one and done shade. List of other Shades Ordered: Warm Glow, Campfire, Babe, Awakening, Rendezvous, The Deep Love, Black Hole - Reviews made under each shade separately)

This is a uniquely dimensional brown that seems to shift from warm to cooler toned depending on the lighting. Would work on any skin tone and eye color. It reads as a neutral on me (NC45 with dark dark brown eyes).

One of my favorite items in my collection! Amazingly longwearing, easy to work with, gleaming rich metallic coppery bronzey gold color.

I wanted to love this, but it creases without any eyeshadow primer underneath, which adds time to my one eyeshadow routine. I have fair skin with a warm olive undertone, and when I blended this out it looked gray green, almost like a bruise on my eye. I wanted a lighter mid toned color to wear daily, so unfortunately this one will probably stay in the drawer.

The color is so intense so beautiful...I look forward to adding more colors to my collection

Love this color: I've been searching for years for a replacement for an old NARS shadow I had that was a dark, slightly olive, gold (without any copper in it)and I've finally found it! This is a beautiful deep, dark gold with a cool brown and olive undertone - it's great for those of us like me who are warm toned but only moderately so. I have Hazel eyes and this shadow brings out the green rather than the brown shades in them, which is what I'm always looking for. The formula is creamy, applies easily and is intensely pigmented. You need the tiniest amount for an everyday look. This tube would last me years, if it didn't expire before that point. Overall great value and fantastic formula and color.

I'm writing this review for this color, but it applies to all the cream shadows I've tried from this brand (The Scoop, Boardwalk, The Deep Love). These are the BEST cream shadows, hands down. It only takes the tiniest amount to get full opacity on the lid. The colors are vibrant with high shine, and they don't add a bunch of texture to my already-textured lids. They apply beautifully with a brush and blend into powder shadows in the crease nicely. They stay tacky just long enough that you can work with them, but I don't feel I have to wait forever for them to dry to avoid transfer. I really appreciate how well they apply with a brush, as I have a small lid space and have such a hard time applying cream shadows to the lids with my fingers.
