I picked up the Benefit Creaseless Cream Shadow in Strut recently because I wanted a dark coloured cream shadow. I wanted to use it as a base for my eyeshadow since I do smokey looks a lot – in the day and for the evening. Using a dark base is the quickest way to start. But I digress.
Benefit Creaseless Cream Shadow in Strut seemed to fit the bill. Described as a charcoal black, the colour is in fact a dark grey and applies with a dark blue-grey tint. I thought it was alright. not quite what I was looking for.
When applied, its not too dark. You can see a swatch of Strut below. It can get darker if you layer it. Or if you just pat it on instead of swiping it on your skin.
