I am absolutely in love with this color. Even the name is awesome. Rock Violet. IT'S SO EFFING PERFECT! It's a lot lighter than I expected, which is good. I have enough dark smokey/dusky violets. It's a really pretty metallic silverish-purple/taupe-y color. (I'm bad at explaining this...) Regardless, it's an awesome color. sweatdrop I love this type of shade in that I think it's pretty unique.
It dries really fast too and doesn't budge. AT ALL. I am pleased. The only thing is that I feel like I have to dab on more than I would expect so I can get a nice color payoff. That might just be because I'm bad at using cream eyeshadows so I dab on the teeniest amount, since I don't want to overapply. Once I put on the proper amount though it looks gorgeous.

The darker, outer corner color is Bare Escentuals' liner shadow in Brocade. Another really pretty color ...And wow my eyelashes look scary...D: Also pardon the messy liner; I'm starting to run out.


I think I'll do another look sometime later using the shadow more heavily so you can actually see the color more clearly. It's more obvious IRL, but evidently, my camera didn't capture it very well...^^;
