12 Pastel Eyeshadows for Spring (Warm-Toned Edition)

How does your outfit impact what makeup you wear?

I usually try to match the undertone (cool/warm) with my clothes, and then I’ll usually use the color to accent or incorporate, but it depends on how bold/dark what I’m wearing is. I’ve been more known to change clothes to accommodate a makeup look than the other way around!

Do you think that beauty brands listen to customer concerns?

I think there are more than we FEEL like listening and at least doing something with our feedback internally, but whether we actually see real change (that’s visible to us as customers) I’m not sure – that’s where I get cynical and don’t feel like we see a lot of things addressed. Last...
