Creamy eyeshadows are the perfect summer choice: they are easy to apply, pleasant to combine, and can be used to create a whole make-up. BeautyHack special correspondent Moore Soboleva found beautiful and easy-to-use options.
Liquid Moondust, Urban Decay
My favorite eye shadow series in the world is the Urban Decay Moondust glitters, with which you can create space in front of your eyes in five seconds. The cream version, Liquid Moondust, released last year, is even easier to handle than the original. The eyeshadow is applied with its own fine applicator, looks great on its own and can be used as an eyeliner.
Illusion d'Ombre Velvet, Chanel
The Illusion d'Ombre series at one time gave rise to the fashion for shadows in a cream-to-powder texture: these shadows, similar to slightly springy mousses, lay on the skin with the finest silky film. Illusion d'Ombre Velvet is a new series: in theory, the shades should have a matte effect, but in fact they are no less shiny than the original Illusion d'Ombre. Which, in general, does not make them worse in any way.
Long-Wear Cream Eyeshadow, Bobbi Brown
Long-wearing Bobbi Brown eyeshadow appears more gel than cream when applied, but they set with a light powdery layer, like most of their counterparts, and hold well. The shades in the series are not very bright - rather restrained and casual, but quite interesting: I recommend paying attention, for example, to the plum brown Vintage Plum.
Eye Crystal, Sergey Naumov
A great friend of BeautyHack, Sergey Naumov, has recently been releasing new items at a speed close to space - and this is cool, since he succeeds in them. The Eye Crystal line of shadows is available in four versatile shades with extra large and very frequent glitters - perfect for summer parties.
Aquastic, Inglot
Aquastic eyeshadow looks like lip gloss - they have the same tubes and the same applicators, which turn out to be surprisingly comfortable. These very durable and very metallic shadows can be applied in a thick layer (then they look like foil), or can be shaded until transparent - just do it quickly, since the texture hardens almost instantly.
Perfect Mono, Dolce & Gabbana
Beautiful noble shades and long-lasting velvety texture - Perfect Mono is valued by many beauty lovers as one of the best series of creamy eyeshadows. There are eight matte and six glossy shades in the line - all of which are easy to apply with your fingers, but still the brush, in my opinion, is the best result. Dark shades look great as an eyeliner.
Soft Mousse Eyeshadow, Wycon
Really soft and really mousse that quickly sets and hardens on the skin. Can be used as mono eyeshadow, but they are a little dry, so personally I like to combine Soft Mousse Eyeshadow with other shades or paint colored eyebrows with them - the shadows are rich and perfectly cover the color of the hairs.
Ombre Iridescente // Matte, Clarins
The series started a couple of years ago with six matte nude shades and was such a success that the brand expanded the line - now there are limits every year, and in the basic series there are already 15 colors. In my opinion, it was Clarins who best managed to embody the idea of a boring nude - these are completely universal means with which you do not need to bother: the shades will suit absolutely everyone, and even those who have never painted their eyes can apply them.
Eye Color Cream, Burberry
I already wrote how I breathe unevenly for elegant packaging and equally elegant Burberry products. Eye Color Cream has a dense, creamy texture that is easy to apply and blend with your finger. The eyeshadows have a light satin shine and deep shades that sculpt the eyes through the play of light.
Eye Paint, NARS
Eye Paint brand positions itself as a universal tool - it is creamy shadows, and eyeliner, and a base for powdery textures, and even on the mucous membrane they can be applied. The shades are really very rich and do not require layering. True, the jar is quite small - if you use them as basic shadows and apply to the entire eyelid, the funds will not be enough for a long time.
Color Tattoo Creamy Mattes, Maybelline
Probably the loudest hit that a democratic American brand has made in recent years is the shades of Color Tattoo. Last year, the main line was replenished with three matte shades, which are in no way inferior to the original series - the colors turned out to be not flat, which sometimes matte shadows suffer from.
Eye Tint, Giorgio Armani
An absolute blogger's favorite - Elena Krygina, my colleague Elvira Chabakauri, and myself have confessed their love for Eye Tint. Interesting shades, the finest texture and a pleasant chill on the eyelids are just a very good product that will always come in handy in a cosmetic bag. Apply the eyeshadow with a handy sponge and then blend with just your fingers.
Cream Color For Eyes, Tom Ford
The metallic texture of Cream Color For Eyes is similar to whipped mousse - it is best to fill it with your finger, rather than blend it. The shadows do not grab tightly, as is the case in especially persistent formulas, so that the makeup can be easily tweaked in which case. Eight shades in the series, all shining like Tom Ford on the red carpet.
