StaceyI adore Flash! I have it in a pallet and only wear it on occasion, but it’s just a pop of purple color that looks fabulous. I’ve not been able to find a suitable dupe that’s as pretty and well, as purple!
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »It is a really lovely shade! What do you normally wear it with, Stacey?
StaceyI use Maybelline bad the bronze as a base and just pop a bit if flash along my lashline and slightly blended in the outer corner. it’s just enough but not too much. With liner and mascara, it’s totally work appropriate too. I’m wimpy when it comes to bright eye shadow, I normally wear neutral colors, so having a little purple there is a lot for me!
Mariella Fair, Pink undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »I’ve got Woodstock in a palette (Mariposa? I can’t recall as I never use it! – BRIGHT PINK eye shadow? Not great for me, though I’ve used it as blush in past!) and I’ve got Psychedelic Sister in BOS 3. I like it very much. I’ll have to check Flash, as I don’t think I own or have even tried that one.
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »I can definitely see Woodstock being a lesser-used shade 😉
Sylirael Light-Medium, Pink undertones. Combination skin. »Flash looks so delicate and pretty! 😀 I have the Psychedelic Sister eyeliner, which I love, but I have to admit, I was (because of the eyeliner) expecting a bit more from the eyeshadow!
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »The eyeshadow could be more pigmented!
Ammara Light-Medium, Neutral undertones. Oily skin. »The interesting coincidence here is that just this morning I was trying to find colour accurate pictures of Flash and Psychedelic Sister, haha. Thank you!
Tabitha Medium, Olive undertones. Combination skin. »Love the shimmer that Psychedelic Sister has looks like a good non brass wearable purple.
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »It has a nice finish!
TabithaI like it! Wouldnt suit my colouring as purple seems to wash me out a bit but on someone a little less yellow skinned than me it would look great.
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »Sorry, I forgot to change the price/sizing from the last post (I use the same outline).
xamyxI thought maybe it was some sort of special pricing if you fill a palette, which would be a nice move on their part!
xamyxI just went through my depotted shadows and realized I have Flash… Is that a sign I need to go on an eyeshadow no-buy…?
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »They look surprisingly similar in the pans but swatched, very different!
fancie Deep Dark, Neutral, slight pink undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »I love the sheen in Flash and Psychedelic Sister! They’re both so gorgeous!
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »Fixed – sorry, I forgot to change the info!
Vineetha Medium-Tan, Yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »Loved all the 3 shades esp Flash and woodstock!
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »They’re all really fun shades to play with!
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »It has a lovely level of warmth without making it a true plum!
EmmaI got Woodstock in a palette (Original Vice, I think). I found that the Woodstock in that palette was crumbly and didn’t have great pigmentation. It didn’t have even payoff like the one swatched above. Kind of stinks…it’s such a lovely pink but the one I have is a complete dud.
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »Oh no, that’s horrible! I don’t remember having problems with Woodstock in previous palettes, but I know this one is of the reformulated variety.
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »Also! Have you tried using a damp brush with your Woodstock? Might smooth it out a little. Most UD eyeshadows can be used wet/dry!
meganlisa Light, Yellow undertones. Dry skin. »Flash and Psychedelic Sister are so beautiful! Love them. I have Woodstock in a palette and use it very rarely in the outer crease or under my lower lashes. So glad you’re reviewing it so I can maybe learn more ways of using it…
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »It pairs really well with gold, orange, and purple!
Rhea Olive undertones. »Woodstock looks so pretty. The first two as nice as well, but purple isn’t my colour. I mean love purple, just not on me 😛
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »At least one of them appeals 😉
DaniellePsychedelic Sister is gorgeous – which is a surprise to me because I don’t typically go for purple eye shadow.
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »I like that it’s not too plum!
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »That was a lovely palette!
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »It has a lovely sheen!
Alia Light, Olive undertones. Combination skin. »Woodstock is beautiful….any suggestions on how to make it truly wearable?
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »You could try pairing it with champagne/beige and using it with a lighter hand – maybe layering a matte beige over it.
