Hello everybody! I need your help.

Which do you recommend for smokey eye look, Silver Lining & Storm Cloud VS Platinum & Carbon?
These two combinations are very similar, so I can't choose one.
I wear Medium or Heavy foundation in a ratio 1 Buttery Gold:7 Ivory.
Gray colour family eye shadows that I have are ... Slate, Wink Wink, Moonstone, and Tarnish Cream Eye Liner.

Thank you.

I honestly would go with the Platinum/Carbon since you fall in the warm range. The Silver Lining/Storm Cloud are much cooler in tone.

Have you tried a smokey eye with the colors you have? Tarnish Liner, Slate as your smoker (crease, outer v, lining definition), Moonstone lid, Wink Wink brow highlighter? It will be a more subtle smokey eye.

If I may suggest, also try Slick, i love it, I have olive skin also rather warm, and I wouldn't think of wearing greys on my eyes, but Slick is great, a warm grey, very mettalic shimmer, I love it for a smokey eye. It is subtle.

Thank you for your advice, make sense.

I'll try this. I have used Slate only as liner.
And I want to try strong smokey eye look, so I purchase Platinum/Carbon at next order ... also Slick is attractive very much.
