I want to love it, but I don't like glittery cheeks.....

Thank you for the lovely compliments guys
You're all so sweet!
showgirl, flattered you asked me for advice
I love UD shadows in a major way
And they are a bit tricky to work with
I prep my eye with benefit boing,apply UD primer, brush on the shadow and it sticks all day
Nary a crease in sight and no loss of glitter and sparkle!
I have the problem where I am getting tons of sparkles and glitter below my eye area and onto my cheeks and such but I've eliminated that nasty little problem by using sponge applicators to apply shadows and using my other brushes to blend after application! I find this also lets the shadow adhere really well and I get more coverage of my entire eye area with a sponge as well!
If you think kiddie pool is bad you should see the mess cherry and exhaust make!
If it really gets too annoying you can give the UD Deluxe shadows a try! No sparkle/glitter bits but tons of highly pigmented shadow! The color Peace is somewhat similiar to kiddie pool if you're looking for a nice aqua/teal color!
Hope this helps a little bit
Peace------->
