Stash: Eye Shadow Palette – Copper/Peach/Orange [M.A.C.]

Posted by Tamara in palette, stash, swatches | 8 comments

Here is the next of my eyeshadow/pigment palettes. This is an extension of my original overview and the third in the series after my highlights and green/teal.

This third palette features a mix of my favourite colours; coppers, corals, peaches and oranges.

I love this palette, it’s definitely one of my favourites. All of these colours are fantastic on tan skin, but they work just as well on deeper tones, as well as to bring out blue eyes and warm up paler skin. I feel like anyone could find something in this palette, it’s just about finding the shade that works for you.  Not only is a a favourite shade, these colours are remarkably versatile.  I could do an entire eye, cheek and lip look using just the palette and have it suit softer tastes as well as those who prefer a more bold look.

Samoa Silk is my favourite colour to change up a retro matte eye, using a peach instead of the usual skin tone shade brightens the look in a subtle way.  Melon is probably one of the most popular pigments, due to it’s versatility – I’m glad to have it pressed as well as loose, so I can use it to suit whatever I’m feeling.

And yes, there are some pressed pigments in there. If you want to see how I did that, you can check out my video for a full demonstration. I love having them integrated with my eye shadows, they get used so much more frequently now!

If you have any questions about any of the colours, or would like to see a look done featuring one of them.. just let me know in the comments.
