When I have a day where I feel like experimenting or don't have an exact look in mind I pull out a color and I HAVE to create a look based around that color. When I'm finished I throw the paper out so I can't pick it again. It's a great way to use eyeshadows you don't usually go for. I picked Electric Eeel the other day and I NEVER use it but created a gorgeous look using Electric Eel and Solar White. I reccommend trying it if you have the time!!

That's a great idea! I think I'm going to try it.

Any tips for making it easier to work with? I think the biggest reason I don't like it is the chunky texture.

^^ Try using it wet. That does help in making the texture easier to apply.

Today I used my Smoke Signal p/g...I love this color but I never ever use it because I either forget about it or don't have any ideas for it.

Groundwork p/p on lid and crease
UD Underground e/s on lid (I also rarely use this but it's so pretty!)
Smoke Signal p/g in outer V and crease
Claire de Lune e/s as browbone highlight (rarely use this as well but it goes so well with Smoke Signal!)

I loved this look-I'm going to wear it again, I can already tell-it's so smoky and pretty!

I just posted an FOTD with it...here's the linkyy

2 recent looks... - Specktra.Net

As usual, I was in a hurry this morning, and I was also super tired from only sleeping 4 hours or so last night, so I couldn't really think of anything fancy schmancy to wear... but I got my Jest out for the first time in ages and wore it with a purplish shade (reminds me of Illegal Cargo) from a forgotten H&M palette, and Satin Taupe in the crease. As a base I used Frostlite fluidline, also an ignored little gem!

For a hot summer day:

Refined Golden as a bronzer and as a blush, All That Glitters e/s all over the lid, blacktrack fluidline and black mascara.
l/s Bombshell on the lips (love that color!) - done!

Sounds like a great summer look, Susanne!

The other day I was in a hurry to get to work (I have been oversleeping like crazy lately) so I put on my Shimmertime pigment (ignored), lined with Teddy eyekohl (ignored), applied mascara and Light Flush MSF (used 2X since i got it) over Milani Luminous. Hush Hush tendertone on my lips and I was good to go

I broke out Moonbathe today

I love the look of these shadows but I never use them!

Artifact p/p + Cranberry e/s on lid
Omega e/s (base) + Cosmic e/s in crease
Carbon in outer V
Saturnal on lower lashline

Pretty and smoky...not my favorite combination ever though, I'll have to keep experimenting

Ether looks really good with silvery greys - if you have Quarry MES or something similar to Rondelle eyeshadow, that would work. It also looks good with pinkish golds - I like it with Mercurial MES over rubenesque paint pot.

I think I'll wear a Heatherette trio today, not sure which one though. May go for the green one. I think I've only used it once since i got it.

Yes, go for the green one!

I tried my green e/s look for the 1st time in my life. It gives me a very Spring feel & fresh look.

Warm Chill - apply on lids and whole lower lashline
Springtime Skipper - from lashline to crease
Ether - from lashline to crease again and 1/3 end of lower lashline
Blacktrack - line on upper lash line and 1/3 of lower lashline.
