I just got velocity today, haven't even had a chance to swatch yet though! I need to do some potential pairing.
Try Prowl
I used it with Luxe all over lid and then creased it with Prow: BLUE eyes, baam! Given how close Luxe and Velocity are, I think it should work with yours too.

'cept my eyes are not blue
I still have managed to do any playing, I am not very well and having a crappy week (for various reasons) and I haven't worn makeup all week! I feel so un-pretty!

Oh, heh, well, it's just a very nice combination, regardless

I wore prowl today with an aromaleigh shade, it looked pretty good, I can see how it would really make blue eyes pop
I spent about 2 hours last night decanting and swatching, nothing like a little sparkly dirt to make you feel better!

Oh Annika, Luxe is gorgeous!! I really need it now!
I got Velocity in a recent swap and haven't had a chance to wear it yet, but I can tell it's going to get plenty of face time!
Palace is a shocker, eh? But so beautiful, it's worth the effort of careful application and TONS of blending for that warm golden orange glow... A lighter version of it would indeed be nice! I'm wondering how it would work in a cream/gel blush base, since cream/gel blushes have to be well blended by default...

It's not exactly the same, but it sounds like you may like Tiger Lily as a blush.

Hmmm, I haven't thought of that! Will give it a try soon, thanks Egerandi!
