Do you mix shades together?

Do you mix shades together?

Do you mix shades together? Like two eyeshadows or mixing two lipsticks to get a different shade? What are your favorite combos?

I love lipstick and gloss together, because it's always interesting to see how you can alter the underlying lipstick. I will also mix for brow shades often - like a...
