Faces Canada Shimmer Cream Eye Shadow Shade ‘NSH003’ Review, Swatches & EOTD

I prefer cream eye shadows over powder ones as they blend effortlessly and looks really elegant on eyes. I prevent myself from getting eye shadows these days (I have a box full of eye shadows!) but alas I am suffering from shopping syndrome. I bought this bronze-y gold shade from Faces Canada few months back and I am glad I got it. Today I am going to discuss my experience with Faces Canada Shimmer Cream Eye Shadow in shade ‘003’

Available at: Faces Store.

Faces Canada says-
A selection of creamy rich shadows that glide on smoothly, blending into skin with ease. A perfect highlight to finish off the look of your eyes. Dewy and bold, these eye colors are ideal for all occasions. Can be worn alone or paired with other eye products. Use after FACES Eye Magic or Metaliglow eye primer has been applied.

MBT says-
Faces Canada Shimmer Cream Eye Shadow comes in a small, round, black plastic casing with a small clear window on the lid that enables easy identification of the shade in case you hoard many from this range. It doesn't come with an applicator brush so you need to carry one unless you apply with your finger. I usually use my finger to apply cream eye shadows. The packaging is simple and understated. It is quite lightweight and can be easily carried around in a makeup bag. The shade number is mentioned at the base of the compact. I wish Faces could name their shades instead of allotting the numbers. I would have named 'Royal Princess' :D.

The texture of the eye shadow is soft, smooth and creamy. The creamy texture makes the application quick and super easy. It glides on the eyes effortlessly and blends like a dream. The pigmentation of the eye shadow is pretty good. It gives a beautiful subtle wash of color with a light hand and by applying 2-3 layers it gives a more radiant and bridal look to my eyes. It provides an even coverage without making it look thick and messy on eye lids. The eye shadow stays for a good 4-5 hours on my slightly oily lids without primer after that it starts creasing. With a primer underneath, it stays for a long time on my eyes with no creasing.

Shade no 'NSH003' is a gorgeous bronze color with a hue of gold in it. It had golden super fine shimmers that are subtle and hardly noticeable on eyes. It gives a beautiful metallic finish and instantly brightens up my eyes. It is a wearable shade and can be used at any time of the day. It would look flattering on all skin tones.

PROS:
Soft, smooth and creamy texture.
Easy to apply.
Blends effortlessly.
Good pigmentation.
Stays on my slightly oily lids for a long time with a primer.
Provides metallic finish.
Beautiful shade.
Travel friendly packaging.
Gives an even coverage.
Reasonably priced.

CONS:

If you have very oily lids, it might start creasing after few hours but I think it can be tackled with a good primer.

Overall Thoughts:
Faces Canada Shimmer Cream Eye Shadow Shade ‘003’ is my favorite eye shadow these days. I love how easily it blends on my lids and makes my eyes big and beautiful. The shade is a gorgeous bronze-y gold color with a metallic finish and would look awesome with traditional dresses. I would highly recommend it to everyone.

  10. It is indeed a gorgeous shade Megha. Since you have mentioned cream eyeshadows, can you suggest some to me? I have seen only NYX and Revlon ones online. Have used one revlon cream pallette many years ago but this time want to try some lovely shades. Any suggestions on brands and colors are welcome :)
