To be honest, the only colours that appealed to me were the neutrals. I don't usually rock a pop of colour, and when I do it's within what I'm wearing clothes-wise. That's why this shade appealed to me so much. It's dark enough for me to sweep on my lids when I want a dramatic eye, and opaque enough to use as a base for similar colours.

And if you can't already tell, it's matte. That's right, COMPLETELY MATTE. I've never seen a matte cream eyeshadow, so I had to pick this one up.

Benefit Creaseless Cream Shadow in R.S.V.P and Maybelline Color Tattoo in Tough as Taupe |
One of the things that annoys me about this product is how similar the packaging is to Benefit's Creaseless Cream Shadows. The packaging is completely the same, right down to the swooshy sound the lid makes that I really like for some reason.

The formulas of the two products are not as similar as the packaging; Benefit's is a tad drier (at least the one I purchased is). But because of my oily lids, Maybelline's creamy formula creases without a primer which is why I prefer Benefit's product.
Overall, if you like any of the colours, have drier eyelids, or just want to test them out, I would recommend these for you. I personally don't know what they were thinking with the bright orange shadow, but if you think you can pull it off, pick it up!
What colours would you purchase?
