Today I put together a simple smokey eye with light pink cheeks and lips. The blush is a very natural looking neutral pink and the lipstick is a blue-based pink that looks a little bit purple. I have a light silver on the inner half of my eyelid, a dark grey on the outer half of the lid, and mauve color in the crease and under the lower lash line. I used a trio of loose eyeshadows from BFTE that I got at IMATS last month. I am not sure if this particular trio is still available as I cannot find it anywhere on their website. I swatched a bunch of eyeshadows at their IMATS booth and they had so many unique and interesting colors. It doesn’t show that much in the photos but the three that I got all have sparkles (smaller than micro glitter but still noticeable) and they actually stick to the eyelid pretty well as long as you wear a primer or base underneath. I have worn them a few times and they do produce some fallout during application and they also crease pretty quickly if you wear them without a primer.
