Aromaleigh v2’s Donna

In the bag, this looked like Zoya's Faye, translated to eyeshadow form. But when I swatched the color, I saw mostly purple with not much of the bronze or gold duochrome…and it's pretty sheer! I don't know if I got a bad batch, or if this color just naturally needs heavier application to show its best side. But once I swatched this color, I was less impressed with it. Maybe I can add this to a purple matte or oxide or something, to see if I can get more color heft with some of Donna's shimmer.
