Smashbox Limitless 15 Hour Wear Cream Eyeshadow


 Need a new long wear shadow for summer ? Smashbox gives us Limitless 15 Hour Wear Cream Shadow.  They say it's transer, sweat and humidity resistant. Sign me up.

I've talked  many times about my eye makeup melt, so if something claims what these do I am all in to try them.  The good news is they've worked really well. I have super oily eyelids and to  put these to the acid test as I like to call it, I wore Riches today outside this weekend while I did various things in the yard. In 95 degree heat. I used no  foundation  as a base or  any primer and after a couple hours , there was still a good bit of shadow left. 4 hours later , still there. Yes it had faded a little , but this wasn't what I would call normal wear.  Normally I wouldn't and you might not be either, wearing them for outside activities , so the long wear claim here is good. I can't say it'll be 15 hours, but then again few could say that despite their names.


I am loving Riches and Fern. Riches is a peachy gold with a lot of shimmer. Not all  peach and not orange, so very wearable. Fern is a very deep hunter green. It has a small amount of shimmer but looks pretty satin on and makes a great smoky eye base.

The formula is creamy but not mushy soft and they blend easily. Cream shadows are among the easiest to use and are summer perfect.

 Limitless Shadows come in 12 shades ranging from purples to neutrals.
