What are your thoughts on cream eyeshadow (I'm 56) ? (allergic)
Would cream eyeshadows make me look older?
Thanks !
I think prefer to use a highly pigmented powder eyeshadow - Some cream eyeshadows would work also as long as you prime your eyelids and really tap or press in so you don't have pathcy areas.
