THE VERDICT:

With all the preparations that you and I have to do today to welcome Christmas, who has time to sit down and plan a holiday look? I'm all for looking beautiful and gorgeous on special occasions, but if that means sacrificing time for the family, friends, and some merry- making, I'd gladly put it aside. But then again, that doesn't give us the right to look haggard and less-than-pretty so in times like this, I always go for what works and those are my trusty neutrals: They're easy to mix and match, practically flatters anyone, and downright goregous!

It also helps if you have a no-brainer neutral palette with products that complement each other like Benefit's Whole Lotta Lovin' makeup kit.

Benefit Creaseless Cream Shadow in No Pressure

Swatches and the rest of my thoughts after the jump!

Haven't tried Benefit's Creaseless Cream Shadows, but I heard a lot of nice comments about it especially on the consistency. This kit comes with a mini pot of the cream eyeshadow in No Pressure.

No Pressure is a brown-bronze shade with a frosted finish. Consistency is cream-gel and wow, it is sooooo easy to spread, non-sticky, and sets efficiently. Pigmentation is medium to heavy and you can layer it on without the 'thick' feeling.

Meanwhile here are the eyeshadows.

Top (Highlighter): Light Peach/Champagne shade with a frosted finish.

Middle (Lid Wash): Coral/Champagne shade with a frosted finish.

Bottom (Crease Shade): Chocolate Brown shade with gold shimmer and a semi-matte finish.

The eyeshadows are very easy to blend, and coverage is medium to heavy and super controllable. I can even apply 'em with my fingers and they still look pretty!

No Pressure is the effortless way to look gorgeous! I really like this shade and it looks so good if used alone. Are you familiar with the slightly-browned-lids-with-the-right-amount-of-shimmer eye makeup look of Hollywood celebrities? Here's a sample:

This look is so nice and it gives eyes a very natural- looking definition, and you can achieve that with this shade! ;)

Here's moi wearing the shadows with No Pressure Creaseless Cream Shadow as base. Didn't experience any creasing with the cream shadow, although my eye makeup faded for a wee bit at the end of day. I guess gals with oily lids like me should apply a primer prior to the cream shadow.

This palette is a must- own for neutral lovers out there. Actually, I think all gals will find this palette useful because the shades are universally flattering, they won't go out of style, and will suit any occasion you have. Truly, this is a Forever Flattering kit!
