A cool, ashy-lilac pink eyeshadow

Post by Cupcake » Fri Mar 27, 2009 12:52 am

I've got a strong notion for a cool toned eyeshadow please. I've seen one which is vaguely close to what I'd want for colour but still too white-light sheeny, and it's $16 :o called Breathless by Lauress. SN's Chills is almost identical swatched side by side, except Chills has more pearlesence and wears better.

My idea is to start with Chills, tone down the sheen so it's closer to a satin lid-wash colour, not a highlighter. Step up the pigment so it's a still pastel but not washed out. I *love* the swatch photo with Highbeam, Breathe, Dolce, Teal Appeal... something in that style or at least in that kind of strength of pigment would be ideal. It'd be the colour of Chills, but stronger toned, without losing that delicate ashen pink with a hint of lilac or lavender, but still pink. Anything from semi-matte through to sparkle, but please, not a pearly sheen as there's so many pearly highlighters but so few pastel soft colours that don't scream 'white-light'. *hugs in advance*
