Score one for the Sephora inside JCPenney for this one!
It’s late May, which means Miami Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week approaches…and so does new MUFE launches!
It turns out not only has Estee Lauder surprised me this week, but so has Make Up For Ever. They have added four (4) new aqua cream shades for eyes and cheeks that are so vibrant, so gorgeous, I had to acquire a few of them.
The four (4) new shades are:
- 23 — Acid Green (straight up frosty chartreuse green)
- 24 — Yellow (semi-matte taxicab yellow)
- 25 — Pastel Blue (frosty pastel blue–stunning!)
- 26 — Purple (looks a lot like the legendary #19 that never made it to the US on initial product launch)
The Aqua Creams I bought–so happy! (w/ flash)
Make Up For Ever Aqua Creams are my favorite cream shadows to use in the summer and in hot humid climates like Florida. I have tested these extensively in the hot July Florida weather and they hold up beautifully! The price has gone up to $23 per pot but you only need very little to get intense color payoff. If you think you can get the same kind of payoff with Maybellene’s Color Tattoo cream shadows, you are sadly mistaken. They are extremely good for a drugstore product but nowhere near the longevity and pigmentation as MUFE–especially if you have oily eyelids like I do.
These aqua creams are available NOW at Sephora.com. GO, GO, GO!!! But before you leave skid marks, check out the picspam!

Gorgeous, perfect for summer and could probably withstand a nuke blast w/o creasing
#23 Acid Green: Stunning alone or under NARS Rated R green shadow
#25 Pastel Blue: An excellent choice to make brown eyes pop
#26 Purple: A long time coming and the PERFECT base for MUFE Eyeshadow #92.
