Surprisingly, no. I know I can sometimes have trouble with coppery eyeshadows, so I was a bit hesitant about Chai too. The best way for me to pull it off is to use a warmer-toned blending shade in the crease and use Chai as an accent color rather than the main (all over lid) color. The texture is really versatile too because if you sheer it out, it’s not super metallic which I think makes it look less harsh. Hope that helps!
