A rich purple that…doesn't QUITE live up to its potential. I had to apply that swatch heavily to showcase the color depth. The actual application looked a bit more semisheer - like Flashy Mauve or Lilac Shimmer eye pencils from Sephora, which are an almost Sterno-blue. It's more of...
This color is extremely sheer. It’s almost invisible on my skintone, but even when applied over a colored base, the base shows through much more strongly than expected for an opaqua eyeshadow. It does have a faint gold shimmer, so could work as a highlight…but for me, this...
