I can see using this brown as a softer liner shade, but it works better for me as a regular eyeshadow. It can be applied much more thinly, and when I do that, it leans peachy-tan.

Cool-ish red with a soft shimmer finish - not chunky or overly sparkly, and if you want zero shimmer at all it can be blended down. The base color softens just a little, but it's totally opaque.

A more…elegant or upscale color palette. They eyeshadows manage to be grey without being overly ashy, and the liner (long since discontinued) accents nicely without overpowering.

I loved this color combination! A silver-grey, and brighter blue and purple. The blush color turned out to be an excellent shade for me, as well: a coral-peach pink with faint gold shimmer. I would not necessarily wear the blue and the purple in the same look, unless it was...

Almost a metallic finish…but not quite. (I don't think.) This color applies cleanly, and can be blended out, but it looks best (in my opinion) when it's applied but not blended or smudged or otherwise thinned.

This was part of the UD 24-7 collection, but was discontinued in 2013. Its replacement - supposedly - was Junkie, a bluer green with a sparkle finish and a slightly patchier application. Another pencil, Mars, was a near-dupe for this one…and Mars was limited-edition and exclusive to its Ocho Loco...

The cooler of the two blushes in the Snow Angels collection - I like both, and can wear both, so it was a good thing I bought them both before the kit was pulled from the site. There's almost a mauve undertone to this color. I can wear blushes with...

I really like this shade - the color payoff is a little softer than I thought it would be, but it's not as soft as some of the other lipsticks in this line. It doesn't stick around for very long, though - I can get maybe an hour of wear...

This one changes slightly depending on whether it's applied dry (redder purple shimmer) or wet (cooler, grape purple shimmer). Not an outstandingly unique shade, but pretty nevertheless. I can see why BE didn't add this to its regular lineup, though - they have several purples that are close to this...

Similar to Antique, but less brown and more yellow in the base shade. I like wearing this as a liner. There's enough depth for definition, and the shade works with my coloring rather than working against it.
