Love the look, LOVE that you only used the 4 shadows in the palette (I feel like a broken record, but I get exhausted just thinking about using 10 different shadows… plus when you’re copying an eye look using dupes, it can require finding 5 to 10 separate palettes!).
So… this will take you back: I’ve adored the shade #1 since October of 2012, when you posted this review: “Giorgio Armani #24 Eyes to Kill Intense Eyeshadow Review, Photos, Swatches”. It included a beautiful, simple look with the featured shade, Burberry Trench, and (I think) UD Half-Baked eyeliner on your lower lashline. I then not only copied it multiple times but also sought out that color in what I owned and new palettes/collections for years, simply based on that one swatch and what you did with the shadow.
Yep, 7 full years of loving what you so aptly describe as “is a blackened olive with olive gold and soft copper shimmer [that] kind of looks green at certain angles.” Thanks to you!
I’m not someone to do an eye look with 7 different shadows – three is usually the most I’m likely to use. Will autumn approaching, I took this palette out today and thought I’d come here to see what looks there were. This look you did, Christine, is exactly my aesthetic and I think I’ll wear it this evening (have an extended family event to attend) – it will be perfect. Thanks, as always, for the detailed guideline!
Thank you, Mariella!
