Maquillage Eye Color Part III

Picking up where I left off with Maquillage Eye Colors. There are a few semi metallic in this lot, but only 1 has full metallic finish (GD865). Better than no metallics at all, I guess ^.^

- BL784: semi metallic, medium intensity. A lovely denim blue, very similar to the Planet Gray color in VOV Castledew Diacut Eyes 9 Colors E902 Planet Shine Star palette and the Romantic Gray color in E904 Romantic Garnet Dia palette, minus the silvery aspect.

- BR771: shimmer, medium intensity. I've already described this color in the first post, so I won't repeat it here. I'm thinking perhaps I should try this color on the crease some day, even though it's quite dark.

- GD865: metallic, medium intensity. A pretty golden beige that's very similar to the crease shade in Kate Metallic Eyes Limited Edition BR-1 Gold Brown Variation, perhaps without the bronze but still quite close.

- GR146: satiny pearl, low intensity. A pearly sea foam green, also a close dupe of NYX Ultra Pearl Mania Loose Pearl Eyeshadow LP25 Grass only its gold iridescent sheen is more subtle.

- GR168: semi metallic, medium intensity. A very pretty jade green.

From left to right: BL784, BR771, GD865, GR146, and GR168. Isn't that blue just gorgeous?

- GR747: shimmer, medium intensity. A deep olive with larger gold shimmers, very pretty!

- GR770: semi metallic pearl, medium intensity. A silvered khaki green with a silver pearly sheen. A very unique color I haven't seen before!

- PK101: shimmer, low intensity. A pretty lotus pink lid shade that is markedly drier than the rest for some reason. It doesn't have the buttery texture either!

- PK164: pearl, low intensity. A pale pearly pink base/highlighting shade.

- PK222: pearl, medium intensity. A bright carnation pink that is nowhere as bright as it looks in the pan. However, it has an interesting pearly sheen similar to GR770 above, only with more of a glistening "wet" effect. Very cool!
