How Do You Use Cream Eye Shadow?
Cream eye shadow has the same purpose as pressed powder eye shadow. The main difference is the consistency of each type of eye makeup. Cream eye shadow has a velvety, creamy consistency and glides on smoothly.
You can get a cream eye shadow stick or cream eye shadow in pots. The stick allows you to apply the eye shadow directly to your lids. If you choose the potted version, you can use your fingers or a makeup brush.
To use the eye shadow, dip your finger or brush into the color. Apply it like you would powder eye shadow. Blend it well to diffuse the color. You can use different colors on different parts of your lid to get the look you want.
Do Cream Eye Shadows Need a Primer?
While primer isn't required, you'll get the best results from your cream eye shadow if you apply a makeup primer first. It helps you get a smoother look and an even application with the eye shadow, and it helps the color last longer. Primer can be especially helpful if your eyelids are oily.
How to Apply Cream Eye Shadow for Mature Eyes
Cream eye shadow often works better on mature eyes than powder eye shadow. It's hydrating and you'll often get a smoother look that doesn't highlight fine lines. You can either use your finger or an eye shadow brush to apply the color.
For mature eyes, choose a simple eye shadow look. The best cream eye shadow for mature eyes tends to be matte eye shadow finishes. Apply the cream eye shadow the same way you would for younger eyes. Primer is especially important for mature eyes to help get a smooth application. Dip your finger or a brush into the color, and apply it to the eyelid. It's better to do one eye completely and then move to the other eye since the cream eye shadow dries quickly.
Is Powder or Cream Eye Shadow Better?
Powder and cream eye shadow are both relatively easy to apply and blend, but one can be better than the other in certain situations. Cream eye shadow works well if you have dry or sensitive skin while powder eye shadow is better for medium-to-oily skin. You'll likely notice that cream eye shadow lasts longer than powder. However, powder eye shadow is often easier to use if you want a layered look.
