Favorite eye shadows and where on the eye you place them (lid, etc.)

[PhonyBaloney500]

There are certain colors that I only use on certain areas of my eye...

Woodwinked--all over eye as a base sort of color
Tease n' teal--lid, outer third (I'm learning, I'm learning)
Cinders--lid, outer third
Trax--crease
Cranberry--crease only (looks weird on my lid like I have pink eye or something lol)
Plum dressing--see above
Vanilla pigment--highlight (looks weird all over my eye)
Violet pigment--crease, lid, lower eyelid
Surreal--outer third
Gorgeous gold--inner corners of eye, highlight, lower liner (with black eyeliner over it)

What are yours?

well, not all of my colors are MAC:

Swish: all over

(Milani) Moonlight: highlight, sometimes as a wash, or sometimes i'll put it *OVER* shadow...i did this to Swish one time and blended it, and it was a really pretty pinky-purple color...Milani Moonlight e/s is comparable to MAC's Vellum e/s; Milani is just as good and the only difference is that Milani is $2.99 @ CVS / Walgreens

(Milani) Garden Mist: all over (Garden Mist is comparable to MAC's Juxt e/s)

Parrot: sometimes the outer V, sometimes in the crease

Beautiful Iris: all over

Satellite Dreams: crease

those are really the only shadows i use; not all of the ones i own, though. yeah, i'm not that creative. lol.

Retrospeck: lid

Satin Taupe: crease, outer-v, sometimes along lower lashine
Smut: same as satin taupe

Phloof: browbone highlight, inner corner, sometimes along the inner lower lashline, blended into a darker colour to make it seem less harsh

Deep Truth: crease, outer-v, liner

 

[colormust]

cranberry - outer v, lower lid, waterllines top and bottom and for eyeliner
metamorph - iner lid, eyeliner and lower waterline
gorgous gold - inner v
stars n rockets - inner v, lower eyelid, lower water line
dazzlelight - brow bone for highlight
swimming - all over lid
black tied - outer lid and eye liner

i know i am probably missing a few.....

does anybody have the same problem i have, when i put on stars n rockets it turns deep purple on them. it is the wierdest thing. its like a hour after i put it on it just turns purple. i dont really mind but it is weird.

[baby_love]

ooh I deffinetly misunderstood the question haha.

but I just have to say that I love Electric Eel and I can't beleive I just got it!

 

[pinkflamingo]

Coco Beach is not an eyeshadow- a pigment, but I have to mention that I never wear it all over the lid. It makes me look dirty. Used as liner, however, this is the very best. It makes blue eyes pop, especially layered over rich ground.

 

[mellz]

I love Ricepaper as a highlight and I LOVE goldmine and nylon on my inner V. It makes me look angelic

Favorite e/s to wear alone

What eyeshadows do you guys like to wear alone (with the exception of a highlight)? Mines is hands down Amber Lights. it's so pretty on it's own
