Re: Eyeshadow: Flashtrack (Veluxe Pearl)

Would you buy this product again? Possibly, if I ever run out...
Bought this because of it's pretty dark metallic navy BLUE-ness, then struggled to think of something interesting to do with it for ages.... makes a decent crease colour with "Moon's Reflection", which I bought at the same time.... but it just looks blackish and dull against a brighter blue, because of it's intensity, so Not That Exciting at the end of the day (tm).
Recently though, my Flashtrack's had a whole new lease of life when I misplaced my Nocturnelle for a bit and was fishing around in my M/U bag for something to use as a crease colour with my favourite bright purples.... and wow! It really POPS and brings out the violet undertones when placed against a shimmer purple colour. And being a veluxe pearl it's *ideal* for blending...
So far I've tried and loved Flashtrack with the following purples:-
- Milani Enchantment
- Violet pigment
- Stars 'N Rockets
- Indigo Pro Pan (a VERY blue toned purple that I don't much dig because it has a weird texture, but I'm LOVING it with Flashtrack as a "medium" colour fading into a brighter purple on the inner corner)
And it's been a winner with all of them.... so I think I've underestimated Flashtrack at the end of the day. Dark and non-duochrome does not necessarily mean "boring". I'm going to try it with golds and oranges next I think....
