Yes, it is and most importantly, it is easy on the pocket.
A shoe cream has evolved to be a multi-function product. It usually cleans, nourishes, restores the colour and protects the shoes once you have applied it. The cream usually takes off most of the residual and aging polish on the shoes when you polish it.
Therefore please don't be alarmed by the sheer amount of colour that seems to have run off the shoes. As the shoe cream contains waxes, it usually provides a waterproof effect on the shoes albeit not a strong one.
You can invest on more stuff once you have more pairs of shoes and more money in the pocket. Oh, and a neutral shoe cream is definitely a useful product if you like your different colours.
