Benefit Sippin n' Dippin'

I tried one of Benefit's creaseless cream shadow/liners a few years ago (skinny jeans if I recall correctly) and while I liked that one I wasn't particularly blown away. Then I saw this reduced on directcosmetics.com and thought it'd be a nice base colour for under my new Chanel Illusion D'Ombre, which I've posted about here. Now I actually have it though I've realised how lovely a shade it is on it's own. I've read other reviews that have said it's similar to Mac's paint pots, is long wearing and crease proof. I've never tried Mac's paint pots (shocking, I know) but I can fully agree with the rest of the positive reviews.

It looks just like a standard gold cream but it's actually a kind of pink/burnt gold, depending on how the light hits it, which is just really interesting. Gold shades tend to be super flattering on blue eyes so I'm really pleased with this and wear time is really good. This has been discontinued as far as I know but like I said, it is available on offer from directcosmetics.com which seems to be a handy site for lots of stuff and well worth checking out, if like me, you have a minor *ahem* make up addiction.
