Toujours

Post by queenie50cat1 » Tue Feb 01, 2011 11:23 am

I'm really liking the recent gwp es -Toujors. Need some help w/ other colors to use w/ it . My eyes are hazel that tend toward blue but can look greener w/ green es if that's helpful. Thanks.

I'm a bit adventurous in my color pairings, but I just did a quick check to see what colors I like it best with, and I liked it most with: Idolize, Homecoming Queen, Saddle Up, Rodeo (this one has green refleck so only when I'm feeling my most daring), Caliber, and Luxe, though I didn't swatch it against everything I own. I tend to like rosey shades best with golds and browns, and that works well with my blue eyes. But with you having a different eye color, I'm not sure if it's going to work as well for you. I also think it would be a nice crease color paired with a lighter purple on the lids.

Thanks. I've used it with Saddle Up and it looks great. I don't have those other colors as I am just getting into Karen's es. Have used her other products for a while though.

I have an offbrand deep cranberry-wine color I love a lot. It really brings greens in my eyes up. I really love it with Luxe for very Autumn look or with Bloom for the "Frosted Rose" look. I have manes for my favorite e/s pairings - it helps me to choose the look easier))
I am waiting for Toujours yet, but due to swatch I think it will be quite close.

I haven't tried it yet. I was planning on wearing it in the crease with danny on the lid. I have done a combo like this before that I really like. I was going to use a brown liner. I have hazel eyes.

Here's a combo I did with a green on the lid and a red in the crease.

I did a combo with Adorn on lid and Toujours in the crease, looked lovely together. I believe I used AL twilight lustre as a browbone highlight.

I'm wearing Toujours for the first time today, on the outer 2/3 of lid with Highbeam, I think it's really pretty. I can see how it would make green eyes pop, but I think it has a similar effect on blue eyes too. I'm wearing it with Chestnut as a liner, which also really deepens and brings out the blue.
Toujours has a beautiful texture and finish!
