Cabernet

Cabernet is a muted, medium-dark eggplant purple with warm, burgundy undertones and a smattering of blue and violet shimmer. The shimmer gets lost on the lid, and it takes on the look of a semi-matte eyeshadow overall. It had good pigmentation but was dusty, so use a light hand and build-up to avoid excessive fall out. The color wore for seven and a half hours before fading. Smashbox Eggplant (LE, ) is warmer (95% similar). Clarins Rosewood #4 (PiP, ) is cooler (95% similar).
