Yikes, talking to myself,LOL. Today I'm wearing Plush on inner part of lid & Lush on the outer half over a light all-over wash of Cashmere. Used Love Lure over pupil & on browbone as well, lightly blending, Lush emphasized in < >, drylined, then wetlined. Breathless KisserSlicker.

No you're not talking to yourself - you're doing eye makeup for two this week, remember?

Thanks for using Plush and Cashmere - must try those together myself :D

Since I am celebrating Easter today, I have on Easter egg colors! A *gorgeous* pink blush that's *perfect* with Damsel lippie! Have Lavender on eyes with Thistle on outer half & heavier in < >. For a dash of fun, a teensy bit of Charmed above pupils. Lined with Caperberry.

Love Lure was e/s backdrop yesterday as well as finisher. Cocoberry blush was used on lids with Bewitched (purple) in < >, highlighted above pupil with LoveLure. Used a great pink blush & Infatuation (mauve) Kisser Slicker.

Whipped cream used lightly to highlight browbone and tearduct, Idolize as a wash on lid with Lurid smudged in the socket crease and outer edge, (dry line with Lurid), is my fave look :) .

I also quite like Bone as wash on browbone, Quarzite on lid and Terra on socket crease/outer edge (dry line with Terra) . Wasn't sure about the warmer colours at first (I'm cool toned) but it seems to make my Blue eyes pop.

If I'm in a hurry I sometimes just do a wash of Cashmere over my whole lid (taking the shadow out slightly beyond the crease, fading as I get nearer the browbone) . It's very quick and simple to do but I get compliments on it :oops: .

Hi all

I use 1:9 ivory & ebony foundation with pixie and lavendar as eyeshadow. Pixie in the inner corner to mid pupil, then lavendar from mid pupil to outer corner. You can use a highlight colour if you want I suggest whipped cream. (I don't have a liner colour for this as I generally don't use any). Black mascara (I pefer the one from Karen - great mascara). Climax as blush, any lip gloss will do but I recommend Foreplay, the shimmer of it goes great with pixie (and if your the lucky ones to get the flavoured one, it taste and smell great).

:lol: :D :lol: :D
Foundation: 1: baggie 6: ebony: 7 glow
Fav blush: Steller
Fav Lippie: Symphony
Fav combo: cream 1st half of lid, 09:59 2nd half, chocolate twinkle in the crease with Blackheart over it blended out and vanillia on brow bone.

I have a new fabulous combo. I have a sample of the new Carnal blush. It is a dupe of Nars Sin. To me, it is a lovely frosted plum. Today I am wearing it with Rhonda lip gloss. I almost feel like they were 'meant to be'!!!

Had to keep it simple today - Teal Appeal with HighBeam as a highlight, and Bittersweet as a liner. Can't remember what blush I've got on, but Damsel is the lippie.

I'm amazed I managed this much today! :mrgreen:
