CoverGirl Shadow Squease Review

Cover Girl Shadow Squease was in our local Dollar Tree store so I couln't resist buying it.  The color I chose was number 435, Cocoa. 

It comes in a tube just like the squeeze lip balms that are all the rage lately.  The amount of shadow is 8 ml or .29 fluid ounces.

The color on the box looked a dark beige/light brown with a matt finish, which is a color I like.

I unscrewed the cap and there was the applicator.  It was white and had an angled soft tip to it.  On the angle was a hole so that the liquid eyeshadow could come out.  I touched the applicator and it felt like a sponge but firmer. 

I took my glasses off and put the tube up to my closed right eye.  I then carefully squeezed the tube so that a small amount of the eyeshadow came out.  I then moved the tube/applicator across the eyelid.  This covered the bottom half of the eyelid so I did another sweep just above this one.  It wasn't perfect but without glasses I thought it was okay.

The second eye came out worse.  I put too much on and had to remove some with a Kleenex tissue.  I couldn't match the left eyelid to the right one.  My eyes really looked a mess.

I touched the eyeshadow immediately and it was wet and did rub off.  When I checked a couple of minutes later it had dried completely.  It ended up being a really shiny eyeshadow.

I didn't go out and removed the eyeshadow when I went to bed.

Cover Girl state on the box:

"Shadow Squease is all about ease.  Cream to powder shadow with soft tip applicator dries quickly for hours of smudge proof color.
Ophthalmologist tested.
Suitable for sensitive eyes."

I did try this a couple of times more but gave up on the whole process.  Also if it is left for a couple of weeks the hole dries over, and you have to get a pin to open it up.

If you have great eyesight then this may work for you.  I am so glad I only paid $1 for it.
