T'estimo Gradually Eyes

Part of the Spring 2006 collection, the Gradually Eyes palette comes in 5 color combinations:
01 - Peach Brown

02 - Mint Green
03 - Cool Beige
04 - Purple
05 - Gray

All come in sleek pearly pink compacts with iridescent green sheen, a mirror, and 2 dual-ended sponge/brush applicators. Each color combination has a highlighter, a base color, a crease color, and a liner color. All combinations consist of light pastels and are very shimmery, going for that sparkling spring look.



Before going home, I got palette# 05 - Gray:
- Off white highlighter: metallic, very sheer, looks off white in pan but goes on a translucent white
- Pale pink base: metallic, low intensity, looks pale pink in pan but goes on a cool white
- Silvery gray crease: metallic, low intensity
- Smokey gray liner: shimmer, medium intensity. If you are looking for a sparkling gray shadow to line your eyes with, this is the one!

Notice that "black hole" the prayed on glitter creates!

At the time, I felt this was the "safest" color combo. Boy, I was wrong. The smokey gray is a stark contrast to the rest's pale pastels, so blend away or layer to soften!
