I have been meaning to do a review on these since the day I got them back in October! They were in this All Cosmetics Wholesale Haul and then just kind of got shoved to the back of my makeup drawer. The little silver box these come in doesn't give you much direction in how to use these, it just says:
"USAGE: Apple only to lips, cheeks and eyes (WARNING: Care to be taken when applying around the eye area.)"
I can see why there would be a warning about using these around your eyes since there are some pretty questionable ingredients in these (Octyl Palmitate, Aluminum Starch Octenylsuccinate, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Cera Alba, Talc, Ozokerite, Candelilla Cera, Silica, Methylparaben, Propylparaben). 50 points to anyone who knows how to pronounce those words!

| Top: Cosmic Cruisin Middle: Moon Groovin Bottom: Solar Slammin Unless you're in really bright lighting (I held my hand under a lamp), you really won't notice a difference in these colors. Cosmic Cruisin is more gold with the most potential to be used as a highlighter, Moon Groovin is more pink-y with the most potential to be used as a blush, and Solar Slammin is more brown/coppery with the most potential to be used as an eyeshadow. |
Cons: The packaging is really juvenile in my opinion, something that a 12 year old would like. When I wore these as eyeshadows, my eyes were super irritated after about an hour. I don't get why these are called "creams", they're actually really powder-y. There's also a pretty bad odor if you get close enough to the product/when it's blended out on your face.You have to be careful when putting it on the eyelid because there tends to be a lot of fallout. Rocket City Bang All Over Color Creams aren't really recommended for use around the eyes, but I can't think of anywhere else I would put it! There's way too much shimmer to be a blush, and if used as a highlighter, it would just look like a random streak of glitter on your face. All three of these colors are really similar when blended out, you don't need to get all of the Rocket City Bang All Over Color Creams. When I heard "all over color", I thought these would be the size of the MAC cream color bases, but they are quite small for a product with multiple uses.
These are stunning in the containers, and I think that's where they should stay! Rocket City Bang All Over Color Creams are great to add to your makeup collection, but not so great for your face.
If you want to pick yourself us some of the Rocket City Bang All Over Color Creams, two of them are still being sold in the Rocket City section at All Cosmetics Wholesale!
