    I own this and like it, but never find the right look. I hope you post pictures on how you wear it to give me ideas.

      Hi KPrice,

      Sure…in the meantime, try it on the lid with your fave brown in the crease. 🙂

    what a lovely purple…it would just brighten up caramel complexions and make the eyes pop a lot!! it does have a touch of desert from Africa…like some cactus flower bedazzling in the desert sun sort of (I am not drunk)….
    Very pretty

    Ok, you got me hooked on Laura Mercier after I finally bought the kohl eyeliner Christmas set and I love the unique but yet still conservative colors. This purple looks amazing and I bet it looks amazing with all eye colors! I will be making another trip to Sephora…hahaha.

    I just got this in the holiday palette and adore the color but don’t love how it applies. Need to play with it some more.

About Makeup and Beauty Blog

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
