Meow Cosmetics’ Hanalei Bay

In the pot, this looks fairly similar to Aromaleigh v1's Sea Glass. Applied, it changes a bit. The purple deepens, and the blue tones come out (helped, no doubt, by the metallic finish…) I might have some other eyeshadow colors that are a similar greyed-periwinkle shade, but none that are exactly this shade with a metallic finish.

I can see wearing this just about any way, except as a browbone highlighter. And it could even work as that, because of the lighter color and the metallic finish. Possibly it would even look good as a liner shade, patted over a black or dark brown gel liner. I'll have to try that one out and report back on the results!
