watch out for the glitter

December 24, 2012
By MakeupNovice
from Kansas
"Silver sky has little flecks of glitter in it.I used the silver shade alone only on my lower lid near my lashes and I did like how it looked. The shades are pretty and still wearable, even if you want a more subtle look."

Dissapointment

December 24, 2012
By Pink05str
from Osceola, WI
"This is the worst Cover Girl product I have bought, you can't see the Step 2 color and it creases almost immediately :( I have used many other Cover Girl products but this one is definitely a dud..."

Great Smoky Eye!

December 2, 2012
By Kasey21
from Columbus, OH
"This product makes the smoky eye super easy! I have silver sky which is okay. I want to try some of my other colormatched shades! I have had no problems with the crayons breaking or creasing - I put concealer and then powder on my lids which helped."

Love the ease of application! Want more colors!

November 6, 2012
By linsme
from Edmond, OK
"I have loved the SmokyShadowBlast shadows. The application process is so easy! I have not had problems with the ends breaking but make-up does crease over time. What I would really like to see is a lavendar/purple shade combination! TY Covergirl!"

"I used the Smoky Shadow Blast for the first time today, and it worked great and was easy to use! I hope it lasts, as some of the other reviews give concern about its durability."

To good to be true...

November 1, 2012
By Mandibr
from Cleveland, Ohio
"I purchased 2 and both have given me the same results. It applies easy, looks good after an hour there are very noticeable creases in the makeup. I tried a primer and finishing veil and seen no change. About the 4th time the fatter end broke on both."

By Pixie8
from Honesdale PA
"I purchased 2 of the smoky shadow blast crayons. the colors are so so pretty. on the first use of purple plume the step1 end crumbled and fell apart as soon as i pressed it lightly to my eye. so i moved on to silver sky it broke inside and fell out"

very disappointing

August 19, 2012
By dollyct
from wtby, ct
"I tried this product because I really liked the shades available. It went on o.k. but after a short while it all creased and looked awful. I do not have oily eyelids so I don't know why this happened. I tried it a few times and it creased every time."

Response from CoverGirl:By JennyCoverGirl TeamAugust 21, 2012
I am glad you are enjoying the shades. Try this to help with creasing: pat concealer or foundation on the lids, dust with translucent powder, then apply your eyeshadow. Hope this helps.

Good & Bad

August 7, 2012
By CassieL
"I like how easy it is to use. The way it looks when I'm wearing it.Doesn't take too much space on my makeup counter.:)
But on the 3rd use, the step 1 part flew out of the holder when I was taking off the cap.Creases after 2+ hours of wear. $8,Pricey.

Too good to be true? Beautiful/Easy but breaks

June 8, 2012
By PolarBearStina
from Worcester, MA
""Easy, breezy, beautiful" smoky eye - that much is true, but these sticks are fragile. I've bought 6 total and every single one is broken off on the thicker end (weirdly, the thinner end never breaks). Would be 5 stars if they could fix this issue."

"Love the Smoky Shadow Blast eye shadow. BUT the tip breaks off soon after I've used it & I wasn't even pressing very hard. There needs to be a design change. I don't think I will buy this again until I hear otherwise that it's been changed. :("

Needs rework

May 4, 2012
By BLyV
from Fountain, CO
"Love the colors, hate the plastic caps and how easily the crayon breaks. After reading these reviews I see that everybody else has the same problem. I can no longer waste my money on a product that falls apart so easily. I have wasted over $40."

Regrettable packaging

April 18, 2012
By Lolly
from Lubbock, TX
"I love this eyeshadow; however the plastic covers break quickly. I have tried two; the covers have broken within a couple of weeks or so with daily use. Without the covers, the product soon dries out and is useless. Please fix this problem!"

Throw your money in the trash can instead

April 9, 2012
By CillaNoir
from Pedricktown, NJ
"Waste of $20. Purchased the plum and bronze. I am VERY careful with my makeup. It stays in a drawer and not my purse. I NEVER even twisted the crayon(s) up. Upon second use, the crayon(s) either crumbled or snapped off inside the tube."
