Thinking about Color

In my last attempt to grasp onto summer, I have been thinking about color. More specifically, eye color. I want something that goes on smoothly with colors that actually shows up as it is on my eye- unlike how some powder eye shadows always tend be a few shades lighter or something. And so, I looked to cream eye shadow. This summer some popular ones have been Shisiedo's collection that comes in a bottle like this one (although this one is actually from Kanebo as I couldn't find a picture of the original one):

Beaute de Kose,Body Shop. . .

. . and Chanel have also came out with something similar. Not only do they apply very well and colorfully, but they also SHIMMER. And I'm sure modern technology has done something about cream eye shadow's tendency to crease. I am definitely looking into this.

Another option I am thinking about is this new long lasting cream eye shadow from Bobbi Brown. The long lasting bit sounds sooo tempting.

The subtle shades offered, such as these two, can be worn as a casual day time look that works with any outfit. Plus, it is definitely something one can carry into the fall with.
And speaking of colors, I am lusting after this new Dior five color palette that they've plastered all over the magazines. The colors offered are just soooo deliciously intense and different, which means a LOT of different looks can be achieved. If one has no eye shadows, this is definitely a great buy for $49.50 as it practically gives you such a wide range of colors suitable for any outfit.

I'm lusting after the Dior compact too! I really want to get it in Sweet Illusion with the pink and browny tones.

The dior compact is great and if you really get to grips with the whole idea of blending then the shades look great, and very unlike the usual disaster of solid chalky blue powders!! Although I like this combination of shades, my favourite palattes of the season have to be from the new Karen Millen make-up range - they're creamy enough to look expensive but subtle enough not to be overpowering!

I have that Dior color pallet. The colors are so vivid with out making you look like a clown. If you match the colors right you can tone it down during the day and play it up for a night glam look. Check out my site for extra make-up and fashion coverage.

Definetly go for the cream shadows, they do not crease at all! This coming from someone who didn't wear eye shadow because it would always crease.

And btw, you've probably already heard this, but try Urban Decay Primer Potion. It really works and you'll be able to wear any colour eye shadow. It'll show up and won't crease.

If you want intense, glowing color, there's nothing better than Dior. Nothing. Have the makeup person show you how to apply the compact; Dior's 5-color compacts typically form additional colors when layered/blended.

I agree Dior colors are great! Ofcourse, if you know how to blend the colors together the results can be amazing.
