Mary Kay Cream Eyeshadow Color Iced Cocoa

Today I will be doing a review on the Mary Kay cream eye color. I won this from the Project Runway Sweepstakes. When I saw the package in my mailbox this morning I was surprised because I did not remember entering this sweepstakes. Then I saw this card and remembered that I entered a Mary Kay sweepstakes a few weeks ago. It must have slipped my mind since I was so busy with school.

This is the first thing I've ever won so I was very excited. I didn't think I would actually get picked but entered anyways because it only took like 2 mins to fill out the form. They also didn't specify what the prize would be so I was like "Oh well, worth a try". The cream eyeshadow came with a brush as well.

I love the packaging on these because it looks so sleek and expensive. The eyeshadow color I got was Iced Cocoa.

This color looks gold in the container but swatches to a brown - bronze-y color that looks gold in the light.

As you can see, I swatched this on the back of my hand. When I went to rub it off since that is what I usually do to remove the product. I was surprised that it wouldn't budge at all. It didn't smudge or smear so I would assume that this would make a good long lasting eyeshadow base. When you rub it, some of the shimmer comes off but the color stays.

The texture of it is very creamy and smooth. You can build up the color if you want to but it does set pretty quick. 

Rating: 4.5/5

Price: Around 14$

Next is the brush. It looks like any other paddle eyeshadow brush but I haven't tried it yet to give a full review of it. 

Stay tuned!
