Pair a green shadow with Vineyard? Crazy or not?

Post by Heathcliff79 » Mon Sep 07, 2009 11:46 pm

One of my favorite eye looks is pairing Sandy with Vineyard. Last week I happened to also add a shadow from another company in the crease. The shadow was a deeper plum/purple with a green sheen to it. I LOVED the combo because it really picked up the green sparkles in Vineyard. Since my favorite eye shadow colors are green and purple-plum (I have brown eyes), this combo was love at first sight.

Now my question is: I want to pair a green shadow with Vineyard. Maybe a darker green for the outer corner; maybe a lighter more shimmery green as an accent in the center of the lid. Does anyone have any suggestions? Or is this idea completely off the wall?! :-P

Finally: Is there already a medium-green shadow with purple iridescence that I've overlooked? And if there is not, can Karen please make one?! :-D

( P.S. It would be AWESOME if it could be a green shadow that morphs purple! :-P )

( P.P.S. If you're interested, the shadow that I've mentioned above is Morbid Curiosity by Aromaleigh. )

Wow, I haven't seen that color by the other company, but the color sounds gorgeous!

I totally 2nd the green shadow that morphs purple! My eyes are hazel, and it sounds like that combo would really make my eyes POP!

I have brown eyes too and I would love that color combo. Something light though not too dark for me. :D

Oooh, that sounds like it would be awesome for brown eyes, and perfect for fall.
