Never Woulda Thought!
-05.22.13
Quick Take: blends easily, highly pigmented, crease resistant
I never woulda got this color on my own but, the make up artist at Sephora put it on me and I fell in love! I mix it with the minty green version of lagoon for a beautiful peacock green. Goes on smooth, lasts all day, doesn't crease. Put it on in thin layers to avoid flaking.

I love this color. I mix it with the darker lagoon color to make a beautiful peacock green. It lasts all day and doesn't crease. Just put it on in very thin layers to avoid flaking.

All the Make Up For Ever Aqua Creams are great. Very intense pigments, requiring very little for effect. Like having a true painters palette.

#12 copper and #16 light pink
-05.19.13
Quick Take: blends easily, highly pigmented, crease resistant, lasts forever, many beautiful colors
This is by far my favorite copper eye shadow I have ever owned. The color is exactly what I wanted it to be: more red based than brown, like a shiny new penny. The pink is a beautiful all over color and the two are gorgeous together. Like a sunset for your eyelid. These are creamy, blend able and you can build the color to be as intense as you would like. They stay on until you take them off. Hot yoga doesn't phase these in the least. Still perfect when it is over! Just make sure you close your lid up tight when you're finished. Would definitely recommend and will certainly purchase in other colors!

Goes on smooth and creamy; color was a bit deeper than I hoped, but it's still a good cream shadow; I would buy this in other colors

First MUFE Aqua Cream purchase
-05.16.13
Quick Take: blends easily, highly pigmented
So far so good, the girl @ the store suggested the black, that's what I got. I don't wear heavy makeup so this is just something for special nights out...I will check out some lighter colors for more natural makeup application. I'm fair skinned, blue/green eyes and blonde. *Perhaps a lighter brown or bronze. I've just started lining the upper inner rim of my eye, it feels really weird though, and I was hoping that this wouldn't 'migrate' to my lower inner rim (waterline) ~ It did.
So...I'm still on the hunt for something that will not budge from upper to lower inner rim of my eye.

Quick Take: blends easily, crease resistant
I bought this in shades 13 and 15, and they really look good together. They go on really easily, and it's super easy to correct any mistakes. They blend really well. The only downside is that they don't last as long as I would like... usually by the end of the day, they're completely faded, which is strange for MUFE. Altogether, this is a great product and it looks really pretty and shiny when it first goes on.

Color #16: a champagne shimmer with pink undertones. Slips on like a dream; build-able color; great staying power.
I'll be purchasing this in other colors.

Disappointed
-05.12.13
I was really excited to try #13 Warm Beige because i've seen Youtube makeup gurus rave about it. Unfortunately, I found it really hard to blend and apply evenly all over my lid. Definitely going to try to return it.

About #13 & #16
-05.09.13
Quick Take: blends easily, highly pigmented
I use #'s 13 & 16 regularly. 13 creates a dewy, sexy, beautiful bright look and I use it at night over my entire lid, maybe contouring a touch in the corner in a smoky way with metallic pinks or mauves; during the day I use it as a liner on my top lid and it gives a beautiful pop and brightness to my hooded eyes.
#16 I always get compliments on when I wear it. I am fair skinned and it is a lovely muted pink tone with a bit of sheen that gives a young, healthy look to the eyes. The pink gives a bit of freshness and youth; I like to wear it with Givenchy's Le Prisme blush in It-Girl Purple #14--I mix the tones focusing more on the lower left three and not the brightest one.

Quick Take: blends easily, highly pigmented, crease resistant
Love love love these. The colors are exactly what you see and expect, it goes on easy and stays on .. all day. But it does get hard to blend once it sets.. so apply and blend blend blend until you're happy with the look. It apply this along with a powder, I will usually apply the powder first and then blend this into it so I have more time to work with the 2 colors.

Nice impulse buy....
-05.05.13
I bought this makeup really for the color. I love the color! I use it as a highlighter on my brow bone and in the inner corners of my eyes and it really brightens my eyes up. The texture is pretty good a tiny bit "draggy" feeling but that might just be my dry skin. Overall good staying power and a good purchase.....a little pricey though.

This eyeshadow is real creamy and long lasting. This is what I was looking for because sometimes I felt like my eyeshadow had disappeared. There's another shade that I saw that I will probably get. I finally found an eyeshadow that lasts.

The Best Cream Eyeshadow
-05.03.13
Quick Take: blends easily, highly pigmented, crease resistant
If you're looking for a great cream eyeshadow that will outlast even the longest day, look no further. Or, if you're looking for some of the most unique and vibrant shadows, stop right here. Wait, it's the same product? I've tried all but five of these (mainly the blue ones) and they're all staples in my makeup routine. These don't require a primer or touchups during the day. They're blendable- either with a brush or your finger. The color is buildable- I'm able to sheer out even the acid green to be work appropriate. If you're looking for a neutral eye, look at numbers 12-16. Dramatic eye? 1-4. Pop colors? Look in the 20s. You simply can't go wrong with any color you choose. What you see on your monitor is pretty much what you'll get.

Quick Take: blends easily, highly pigmented, crease resistant
Great highlighter for your eyes. I haven't swam in it yet to know how it holds up to the water but It is a great shadow none the less. Crease resistant and lasts all day. Love the metallic coloring of it.

Love it!!!
-04.28.13
I bought this for the pool, but I wear it every day! It blends smoothly and has a nice even shimmer. I have the pink and I wear it as eye liner and on my lid alone during the day. For evening it layers great over my power shadows. I'm going to get the white next. I tried it I'm the store and it was perfect for highlighting under my eyebrow.
