Replacement for Cuddle eyeshadow?

[Pauline]

Is there anything else that can replace my favourite Cuddle matte eyeshadow? It's the perfect grey/brown/plum colour for me.

At the moment, I have a swatch on my hand, all my other eyeshadows in a row and I'm frantically mixing to try to match it!

Not quite the same but have you looked at Mousse?

What about Eu Taupe Ia?

Perhaps lighten up Lurid? I never saw cuddle, but the description sounds like a lighter version of that.

well, after consulting the wall-o-color:



i will say that there isn't really a replacement but lurid and mink are both "similar". mink is pinker, lurid is greyer. My rec. for mixing would be to add a plum to lurid.

Thanks for all the suggestions. Looking on the site again, I think that Lurid and Mink would both be worth a try - unfortunately I just can't wear anything really shimmery. Can you buff the shimmer down - I've found that I can do this with some other brands where the colour is unique but not matte enough for me.

Lurid's almost flat matte, and Mink isn't very shimmery at all. I can't wear the satin finishes, or a lot of the newer E/S's because they look way too shiny/heavy on me, but I haven't had problems with either Lurid or Mink if it helps any. Lurid is probably the more matte of the two, though.

Thanks - next time I order I'll get some samples of those.

As I was checking out the site, I thought at least I've still got Beach Plum, but that's gone too!!!
