Make Up For Ever: Eyeshadows #311, 141, 162, 84, 47 (Plums/Greens)


Eyeshadows: #311, 141, 162, 84, 47

Here’s kind of a mish-mash of shades — plummy/browns.

#311 is a shimmery burgundy shade. It runs a little on the reddish wine side, and the shimmer is noticeable without being too much. It’s a diamond shadow, so it has a frostier finish than other iridescent shadows by Make Up For Ever.

#141 is a sheer, slightly shimmery pale mauve-pink. It doesn’t have the best color pay off, but it can be layered to get a little more pop out of it.

#162 is a matte, brownish-burgundy shade. It can be layered for increased intensity, though it has decent color pay off. I like it for the crease, personally!

#84 is a shimmery, smoky green with gray tone. It has golden shimmer laced throughout. It reminded me of a lighter MAC Greensmoke eyeshadow, actually.

#47 is a matte, grayed-down green. It’s kind of like a drab green in a way, but it’s a nice way to add depth to the crease without adding a lot of darkness.

Which of these are your favorites?

      I bought a bunch at IMATS since it was 40% off :) I’ve heard good things about the brand, so I figured I’d take advantage of that one-time opportunity!

    Is #84 similar to Silverthorn or Vex?

    • Christine

      #84 doesn’t look anything like Silverthorn or Vex on me, since it’s really quite green. It looks similar to Greensmoke if I had to pick a MAC dupe!

    311 is pretty! I’m pretty sure I’ll be getting 162 now :) how do you think 47 compares to Club? It looks similar to me.

    I do wish the colors had names instead of numbers…i always get a kick out of the color names! and i think the numbers are harder to remember. Anyway, I’m loving the MUFE series!!!!! thanks :)

      It’s similar, but it doesn’t really have the duochrome of Club, you know? The shimmer is a lil’ more flat.

      I wish they had names too!!
