Creamy Eyes E103 – Deep Black
WHAT – The lifting, firming and protecting Creamy Eyes formula glides on like. Even a thin layer of this formula is extremely long-wearing and will stay fixed until taken off with a cleanser.
WHY – Creamy Eyes is ideal for a quick smoky eye, providing sufficient playtime before drying. Creamy Eyes can also be used like a thick pencil.
ACTIVE INGREDIENTS – Para Cress flower extract stimulates natural skin-lifting capabilities. Coffee extract works to increase collagen and elastin production while also increasing natural skin defenses. Extreme wear is delivered through the synthetic filming polymers in volatile oils. The spongy soft mousse-like consistency of the texture is achieved through the innovative siliconic wax and siliconic gel in combination with beeswax.
HOW – Use it like a thick pencil around the eye or in the eyelid crease, or cover the entire eyelid using the built-in ELLIS FAAS Creamy Eyes brush, then fade the edges with the fingertips. For extra drama, experiment with layering multiple colours of Creamy Eyes. Watch the instruction videos!

Comes in 14 shades..from browns to greys to golds, bronze, taupes, green, blue..there is something for everyone..
Ellis Faas products come in silver pen packaging with an inbuilt brush for eyes and both brush and sponge for lips..for all pens you get out the product by turning the base of the pen clockwise. I loved the packaging..its quite unique..though at times you get more product out..so it does lead to wastage too..
The first time it does take time..and it needs about 25-30 clicks for the product to come out..and once you see it coming, just one click..better be slow or else too much product would ooze out..
E103 Deep Black is the most darkest, richest, pigmented black I have ever seen !! And boy, does it set once dry..it does’nt budge at all..this would give you the most easiest, quickest, fool proof smokey eyes possible ! The harsh edges can be blended going towards the crease with the fingers for a softer look..or a prominent cat eye shape..it can also be used as a liner..but I would suggest dipping your liner/angular brush into the product and lining..if you are not a fan of thick lines..the same way you can use your eyeshadow brush and build up your smokey eyes slowly..if you want more softer effect..
This does stay put whole day with very minimal fading..but no creasing at all..
Here I have used it all over with some blending towards crease and on the outer half of lower lash line and highlighted the brow bone and inner corners with NYX Jumbo Pencil in Yogurt..your go to 2 minute Smokey Eyes !
Pros:
1. Quite unique and nice packaging.
2. Rich Darkest Black ever seen.
3. Settles to a matte finish and does not budge at all.
4. Very minimal fading at the end of whole day but no creasing.
5. Comes off easily.
6. Can be used as a liner too.
7. Perfect for quick smokey eyes.
8. Works great as a base for all your deep smokey eyes.
9. No animal testing and no parabens.
Cons:
1. Expensive.
2. Available online..you can order it HERE
3. Sometimes excess product comes out and goes waste.
Overall I really love this..and I wish it would have been a little cheaper..I would have loved to own all the shades ! I surely recommend it..particularly this black if you love smokey eyes…coz it can be used in any way..as a liner, as a base, on its own for black smokey eyes..would also recommend E104 Grey Brown, E105 Deep Warm Taupe, E114 Bordeaux Red
