Most unique shadow you own?

***anne7*** · 02-14-2006, 07:10 PM

Hey girls, I was thinking about this when me and Allie were talking about our tendencies to buy the same shades of e/s that end up being way too similar to justify it. So what are your favorite unique shadows that you have never found something close to it to to replicate? And how would you try to describe that color?

For me. it would be MAC's Lucky Green.

Beautymarked and Agate. You can't see the reddish flakes in Beautymarked only until you apply it wet. Agate is just well oh so sparkly brown and pretty in the pot and on the eye.

lol well hurry up and get it! It is gorgeous... :icon_love

The ones I am talking about have a finish that pretty much has glitter in them. They have the tendency to be a pain in the A$$ to work with, but I love the glitter! Like Blossom, Ink, Glisten, Flushed...

Ooh, I wanted to get Flushed awhile ago, but didn't because I wanted to ask you about it first, lol.

Back on my list it goes! And Ink I had wanted, but got scared away when I saw it. I just don't know what to do with a dark navy e/s.

But now I want to try it again!

They are cool, but WATCH OUT for fallout!! Definitely put loose powder under your eyes, esp when working with Ink or Blossom, bc it will be a PAIN to get it off otherwise!

Aw man, I hate colors that do that, I am already a dunce with e/s, so that is just an extra inconvenience. But if they are as great as you say, they must be worth it! I will just have to either do my e/s before face makeup or use your loose powder trick.

OT, but what is a good way to wear Briquette and Ink other than just as a liner?

The two light ones, Flushed and Glisten I LOVE as browbone highlights... They would make a pretty sheer wash color too.

Briquette I would pair with golds, bronzes, black, purples, honestly this color can work with anything... I have even put it with orange before.

Ink is a little more tricky, but I would say silvers and blues are kind of "it" when it comes to things to pair it with. It isn't the right shade to go with gold or bronze.
