My teen daughter is wanting to spend a fortune :? on the latest very bright eyeshadow on the market. What can you recommend that would give her the very bright satisfaction? I know and love your products but she thinks they are just for old Mom's. I know she will need a primer in order to get the deep color so I'll need a primer recommendation as well.
Any ideas!

Any of Thea's colors are very young and edgy..... (do a search for Thea and pick those eyeshadows). Poly is bright as well as Madison and 5th Ave. Breathe and Superfly would be fun ones, too.

There are a whole host of primers and everyone has an opinion on which one they like best. I use a MAC paintpot or the primer SN sells (it is outsourced) as the ingredients are a little better.http://host.silknaturals.com/creb/shado ... p-579.html

Oh, she would love Breathe! My sis and I swatched it on our arms and just played around with it in different lighting and stared for like 20 minutes! :lol:

There was a collection of matte neons/brights awhile back released with the thea colors (or around the same time). Flame, Safety, Canary, Swamp, Lime, Lagoon, Royal, Vivid. They're all matte, but go well with the thea colors which are intense shades with shimmer. The morphing shades are really fun too.

Thank you! Thank you!
This is just what I was looking for. I knew I would find it here. And all reasonably price!
Teen Daughter loves them all and would love one of each! :D
In order to get the intense effect of the colors the best application is to pat them on rather than sweep? Did I get that right?

Patting them on over a primer will bring out the intensity of the colours :)

Oh, and you foiling is even better for intensity! Or, try them on top of a different color base, like Karen's cream liners: Film Noir or Tarnish would be great for that.

I would think the wow colors would be good too.
