I got these Ben Nye colors a while ago for a pretty good deal on Ebay. I have 6 Creme Colors, 2 Creme Rouges, 2 Creme Foundations, and 1 Creme Highlighter. The staying power is amazing. I use these as bases for eyeshadows or for costume makeup. After washing my arm several times with soap there's still a little color left on my arm.
