A popular question I get a lot on my Instagram is what are the benefits of using a cream shadow instead of a powder eyeshadow. Obviously, the texture is the number one difference between the two, but difference does that texture make?
Because cream bases are more dense, they tend to be much more pigmented than a powder eyeshadow. While you may need to dip your brush three or four times into the powder shadow, you may only have to dip your brush into the cream shadow once to get the same amount of pigmentation between the two.
Cream shadows also work as great bases. By applying a warm hued cream shadow underneath your eyeshadows, you can instantly transform those eyeshadows into a different shade. I love buying bronzes and gold cream shadows, so that I can use any neutral color, and instantly make it more flattering to my warmer skin tone!
