This thread was acting very wonky. I put the same pic & swatches here that I have in the GAETs thread and it will only show up in edit mode.
I'm trying again here:


Sunrise (#14 Orange) Sunset (#15 Purple) & Zenith (#13 Gold)

Meddy you got the powder!

 

[Naynadine]

Meddy you got the powder!

Did you order it yet? I read that even 02 runs very light.

 

[Monsy]

I still haven't because I can't decide on the color.

So I played in the new eye tints at Nordies. To my surprise, I liked the Orangey one, no 14, the best. I left the yellow and purple one at the store.

Do you think the orange one is close to the new Chanel one? Based on I am on a restricted diet of makeup purchases.....as well as why did the purple and yellow not float your boat????

It was a wild guess that worked---a bit risky I know but I was intrigued.

I saw your questions Ash and thought I'd try to help since I have both. The GAET, Sunrise has more gold/yellow while The Chanel IDO has more pink, actually leaning
coral. I tried to capture those differences:



I think you can see it better here in the close up. Of course the textures also differ. When I blended the Chanel IDO, Rouge Gorge it blended to a soft really pretty
orange coral. When I tried to blend the GAET, Sunrise----it didn't budge!!!

Thanks, I think....with Blue Notes coming out any day, decisions, decisions,ugh.

 

[Naynadine]

I did and it's perfect for me----I guessed at the shade/color

I'm glad it worked for you, Med! I'm happy with 00 too; I really expected a light shade like that to be Asia exclusive, so I'm glad it's not.

I honestly didn't look at the Chanel products. So I can't say. I'm not a very big fan of purple, so I just decided to pass until later. I need to figure out which undertone of purples I like, and stick with those. I recently got rid of some purple eyeshadows. The yellow was pretty, but again, I don't really wear yellow. I thought the formula was a tad watery compared to other two. My number 11 is like that, I think it smoothes out in the end though. So it isn't such a big deal. I thought it was pretty though, I just went with the one that stood out and it was 14, sunrise, the orange one.

Thanks Meddy, that coral is sooo pretty... *must resist* or not... I don't have coral shadow, the last I had was a MAC paint pot which, to be honest, made me look like I had pink eye. I also don't wear colors like expensive pink for the same reason, but I might have to try this.

I love the eye tints so much. You can use a minute amount and build it to your desired intensity.

 

[Shars]

Thanks Nay---The powder is as smooth as silk.

I'm a "go big or go home" kind of girl when it comes to eyeshadow so I love the intensity of these. They are just some of the best! I know I'm going to end up with them all lol.

I love the coral E/Ss almost as much as I like pinks. I never had a problem looking like I have pink-eye since when you have pink eye--the sclera or 'whites' o the eye are reddened. My sclera still look bright white, and I enjoy both MAC Paradisco and Full of Flavor. I was surprised that Chanel RG leaned coral, and I forgot to mention that both it and Sunset have micro shimmer that's practically undetectable.

I'm not a lover of purple but after watching a video and how nice it looked with the gold, Zenith I was totally sold one it. I didn't notice the consistency Zenith
being any different from the others, and once dried, they didn't move.

I LOVE purple eyeshadow. One of my favourite beauty bloggers did a pink and purple eye look a while ago that I keep trying to recreate but never remember to try lol.

I'll have to get on youtube and see if I can find the video you saw!

My very first palette from Mac has purple and pink in it. I think it is the reddish purples I don't like on me. I'll have to play around and see. Or I'm just done with purple right now. As pretty as that look is, I don't like it. If that makes any sense at all.

Oh how pretty---I definitely don't look this good in purple. I think Katred might have posted the purple & gold eye-look video. I'll try to locate it.
