Ok so I always wear eye shadow and do smokey eyes... But I see a lot of pretty cream shadows and was Wondering what kind of difference it makes rather than using a powder shadow. Is blending easier or are looks easier to achieve??

I think it is blending easier.

I think power better than cream, most times cream tends crease and fade and powder blends better in my opinion

Yeah I hate cream they crease a lot though I don't have oily lids, powder is much much better and stays all day on my lids even without primer.

Yea, I also prefere powder) the creamy shadows I think makes lids look heavy, oily...

Depends on the cream eyeshadow, if the Maybelline's color tattoo, then YESS cream is better because that is the only eyeshadow I wear and it only starts to crease after 8 hours, and I have OILY lids.

I perfer powder also but I do have cream shadow that I use as a base for my powder shadows. So if you want to try one and don't like it just use it as a base.

Powder powder powder. Creams are a B**** to blend, haha. I like to put a black cream eyeshadow on my lids and then put the black shadow on top for more intensity.

I only like cream as a base for a powder eyeshadow on top. The maybelline color tattoos are great. Those are the only ones I might leave on their own but even so I usually still put a matching powder on top just to be safe.
