Dior Rosee (141) (LE, $30.00) is more lavender. I had just a little fall out with this shade, but it’s something that works better on its own as a wash of sparkle or patted over a more opaque eyeshadow as a layering product. It looks a lot more lavender in the pan, but when swatched, it’s a lot whiter. It is a Sparkle Eye Shadow, which are sheerer, glittery shades. Silver Lilac is a cool-toned, white-lavender with a sparkly finish. Guerlain Boulevard du Montparnasse #5 (LE) is purpler. Chanel Hasard (99) (P, $28.50) is a couple of shades darker. LORAC Mauve (P) is slightly cooler-toned. Urban Decay Nooner (P, $18.00) is darker. It seemed like it would have good color payoff, because the texture was incredibly soft and silky, but it was fairly powdery, so while some of it adhered to the skin, it was prone to dusting and sheering away. You could also use a white eyeshadow base, which would improve the adhesion and vibrancy of the sheerer shades in this palette.Īmnesia Rose is a muted, rosy plum with a matte finish and subtle warm undertones.

If you pat the shades on enough, just lightly blend along the edges, and do major clean-up after application, you can achieve fairly close-to-pan color. I thought the matte shades tended to be quite powdery, though they blended easily on the lid, they also would sheer away and looked faded before the eight-hour mark. Ultra Violet is supposed to be sheer, but one of the issues I had with it is that it doesn’t apply evenly, so it’s not a sheer, even layer of color. At a glance, it might seem like a bolder offering from Bobbi Brown, and to an extent, there’s some brightness and color that is unexpected, but the textures ensure that they’re sheerer, softer hues–some by design, others the result of more powdery consistencies.
