Your skin tone/coloring: Under my name (blue-green eyes, dark hair).

Favorite plum eyeshadow? Oh boy, there’s just too many I love! But I’d have to say that the two metallic plum/purple shades in CT’s Bejeweled Palette are amazeballs!

Favorite gold highlighter? ABH Amrezy highlighter, hands down.

Favorite brown eyeliner? UD 24/7 in Corrupt and MAC Mole Brown.

Thank you for reminding me that I own Trax (I honestly wasn’t sure and had to check my reviews to confirm that I have it) – I use it so infrequently that I’d completely forgotten about it. I need to take it out of its own “quarantine” and take it for a spin!

Your skin tone/coloring: pale, cool
Favorite plum eyeshadow? If they count as plum, I’d say UD’s Weirwood Leaves and the middle shade in Dior’s New Look 5-pan. I also really like MAC Sable, if that’s considered “plum”.
Favorite gold highlighter? UD Sin (discontinued) is probably the “gold-est” highlighter I own and I like it (if we’re talking face highlighters).
Favorite brown eyeliner? Sephora Cappuccino.

Your skin tone/colouring: Porcelain, with pink undertones

Favorite plum eyeshadow? I don’t have too many plum eyeshadows – the one I have from Mecca’s Eyephoria palette is pretty good and a plummy shade from Maybelline’s Burgundy Bar is excellent.

Favorite gold highlighter? – Nope – I don’t use highlighters and I couldn’t use a gold one as it would turn yellow on me.

Favorite brown eyeliner? I don’t use eyeliners either, but my favourite brown eyeshadows include: City Color’s Sandstorm, UD’s Ambush and Radar.

Skin tone/coloring: fair, I use Too Faced Peach Perfect foundation in Cloud and it’s an accurate skin match so fair with neutral undertones?
Favorite plum eyeshadow: Lime Crime Prelude Chroma Palette’s shade Cyprus is a perfect plum shade to me
Favorite gold highlighter: this is gonna be problematic but Jeffree Star’s Brainfreeze Palette has a very creamy blindingly bright gold shade called Gold Breaker that I have liked better than other actual cult classics.
Favorite brown eyeliner: Urban Decay Corrupt or Ember
