I wound up mixing Chiffon with just a hint of Elle. I think it worked well.

Was Elle a gwp? I think it was before my addiction started! Is there a swatch of it? A lot of people have mentioned it.

It was a GWP color. You might try one of the other colors mixed with Chiffon, though.

Thank you, I totally missed chiffon. Can you wear it buy itself or will it look too "white" ? How do you think it compares with gasp?

Thanks!

Chiffon is really a highlight color, IMO. It's not "purple/lavender enough" to wear on its own. That's why I would mix it with something else.

Chiffon is shimmery, but it doesn't morph the way Gasp does. There's not any iridescent interference pigments in Chiffon.

To be honest....the other day, I mixed Chiffon with the barest hint of Elle and wore that as my highlight color, and Vineyard on my lid. It was very lovely.
