Well, I finally bit the bullet and am so glad that I did. So, here's a look that I did featuring the silver shade, which I paired with bubblegum pink glossy lips.tissevenitienlookFace: I've been looking for a matte liquid foundation, and was testing Dolce & Gabbana The Foundation Perfect Matte in Soft Tan 160. It's a nice formula but it didn't have enough slip when applied so it required a little more effort to blend than I'd like. I used my Hourglass Ambient Lighting Palette (also mentioned here), which is quickly becoming a daily staple. This is a product that you truly have to try on your face to fully appreciate. Once you do, you'll be hooked. Promise. I also used MAC Sweet as Cocoa blush, which I've been wearing almost daily lately. It doesn't really come across in the photo but it is a perfect neutral shade for me, and I also used it in my crease to blend out the silver shade.Eyes: Since I was wearing this look during the day, I used just the silver shade patted onto my eyelid and the peachy shade on the top right of the palette lightly along my brow bone. I added MAC Extreme Dimension mascara and used Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz in Dark Brown to pencil in my brows, and I was done.Lips: To lighten the mood of this look and make it daytime appropriate, I lined my lips with MAC Hip 'N' Happy lip pencil, which is a cool bubblegum pink. I then topped with Kevyn Aucoin The Lipgloss in Peonine, which is a semi-sheer rose gloss with pink sparkles. So pretty and not too sticky.2014-10-12 19.50.09Here are some swatches.  The two greenish colors can either look very similar or very different depending on the light. The green on the far left is a metallic forest green, and the shade second from the right is a darker green with brown/gray undertones. It reminds me of MAC Club and it can look brown, dark gray or green depending on how the light hits it. I was very happy with the quality of these shadows as they were very pigmented and silky smooth.  Bottom line: I recommend this eyeshadow quad.  There are several other color combinations, which can be found here for $61.tissevenitienlook
