Please make full sizes of the 3 colors in this set. I love all of them. The peach and the pink are just perfect, and the purple in the crease of my eyes along with linen gives a wide awake look and looks so natural.

I'd love some ideas for what to do with the bronze color. I've used the other two for pretty much everything.

Bronze? You mean peach? I swept it across my cheeks or use it as highlighter.

On my skin it doesn't read peach at all. It's the color of pennies. Much too dark for a highlighter, too coppery for a liner and looks like I got dirt on my cheeks. Maybe I'll just mix it with something or decant and use the top for a different color. I am LOVING the pink and purple.

LOL! OMG how skin shade difference impacts that much! But I think you can use it as shadow. I bet it'll look gorgeous on you. :)

Wow, I am so dumb. Why didn't I try that? LOL! Thanks!

Edit: Yep, it's a very pretty one color shadow. Funny how that's the way I used to do my makeup and now after only a year of adding complexity, I forgot it's okay to do simple looks with less than three colors. :lol:

LOL Emma! I used to use three or four colours daily (plus liner and mascara of course ;)) Now I'm back down to ease of application and normally only do one colour washes (except on special days or days when I have more time).

I probably would have found myself in the same situation as you had this been a year ago!

I've been using it as eyeshadow, but also as blush--mixed with about an equal amount of Date Bait. Super pretty and subtle. :D

I used the top color in my crease and added a touch of matte brown to it ...loved it. Would you say these are pearl or mattes with some shimmers here in there in them?? Would these be the ML? :?: They are cute in those stackable jars. 8-)
