It is pretty rare that I find a product that is so defective that I feel compelled to write an entire post about it. Revlon's "Beyond Natural" Cream to Powder is one of those products.
My daughter and I both use the same color palette of eye shadows and both happened to run out at the same time, so I was unfortunate enough to have bought two of these "fail whales" at the same time.
The concept of the eye shadow is to fully cover the eyelid with the cream, which is easy to apply. But then, if it's supposed to turn more powdery and be anti-crease, then it fails that test miserably. Basically, it's so greasy that it never forms a powder, and it also makes your eyeliner impossible to apply (or stay on) and the simple act of blinking can cause your mascara to run and make lines on your eyelid.
I paid $8.00 apiece for these useless eye shadow compacts. Revlon, if you're listening, please contact me at claire.celsi (at) gmail (dot) com and let me know when and how I can get a refund. I would also love to know who Revlon tested this stuff with. It's probably one of the worst cosmetics products I have ever used. I am writing reviews on every Web site I can find to try to warn other women not to waste their money.
Hey Claire, if you're still looking for a better make up situation, my wife is a consultant with Arbonne and can set you up with some quality stuff!
