Make Up For Ever #15 Aqua Cream

Make Up For Ever #15 Aqua Cream ($22.00 for 0.21 oz.) is described as a “taupe brown shimmer.” It’s too bronzy to be a true taupe–there’s a darker, chocolately bronze as the base color with a lighter bronze sheen. The sheen is almost taupe-like but not grayed out enough. It’s subtly warm-toned but doesn’t read orange or red. #15 has good color payoff and texture–very soft and smooth. It has a more metallic finish, which translates into smooth application. Bare Escentuals A-Ha is similar to the sheererd out version though a little grayer, while Urban Decay Lost resembles the heavier swatch.

Aqua Creams have a quick dry down, and once they have dried, they stay on all day long for me–no budging, smudging, creasing, or fading. They can be worn alone, as a base, or as eyeliner (and some shades can be worn on cheeks/lips, too; a few aren’t meant for eyes but for cheeks/lips entirely).

Hey Christine!
This is a little off topic, but do you think you could do a video or post on how you swatch product? Whenever I go to the store, I can never seem to swatch anything properly! I always pick up too much product, to little of it, etc.
Thanks!

This or #12 for my first MUFE Aqua Cream! I’ve never had a cream e/s before and these look so beautiful! I have blue eyes, so I think the copper tones in #12 may complement my eyes more. Also, is this close to MAC Bronze or Woodwinked or Indianwood PP? It looks kind of like it. Which one do you think I should get Christine, 12 or 15?

I have a lot of trouble applying these. What type of brush do you use? I can’t use my fingers – my nails are too long. Whenever I try to apply these with a brush though, they look sort of “chunky” on my eyelid!
