Beautiful! It looks like these shadows didn’t need primer; were you able to tell a difference over time?
It’s literally what I’m wearing today so I haven’t even finished wearing everything yet! 🙂
I feel like this eye look could be easily achieved with the ABH Renaissance palette, or something very like it. I’ll start practicing. 🙂
Great eye and lip look, great earrings. I think the look you show here explains why there are so many neutral eyeshadows and why we keep buying them! 😀
Thank you, Susan!
Absolutely gorgeous eye look! I have the KVD eye contour palette on my next-thing-I-want list, and now I might have to add the glimmer palette!
Thank you, Seraphine!
Really beautiful! Even though the KVD swatched so horribly for me at the store…boy did you create a gorgeous look. Mad skills!
Looking forward to your review, but still staying strong ha ha. I hate to say I was glad your swatches matched my experience also. They were realistic to my eye and I appreciate that because I started to wonder if it was just me. Still wish they were better as a big fan. Interested to see what your take is after testing them. ?
Thanks a lot, Christina!
Aaaaacckkkk!!! You’re making me want this palette!!!
Thanks, Katherine! I’m positive you have dupes!
Beautiful look, I am sorely tempted! 🙂
Thank you! I’m sure you have dupes – the colors are not unique!
Perfect bronzey smokey eye with lip and cheek shades just pairing up with it splendidly! You look radiantly beautiful here!
Aw, thanks Nancy!
Ahhh so pretty Christine! I love it. Makes me want to buy the KVD glimmer palette and the Nars palette! I am holding off though, I over spent during the anniversary sale. Now I am going on a “No buy” for as long as I can! But this!!
Thanks, Amirah!
Wow, Christine, you have outdone yourself with this eye look. Beautiful and exacting application. The overall look is stunning…positively glowing!!
Thank you, Tracey!
