Iris Print.. Why why why?? any good combos?

[Jennifer Mcfly]

I love CCB's! They make any eyeshadow stick!! Even lustre's!!! I would apply a paint first and then a thin layer of your chosen CCB (I use Fawntastic for everything b/c it matches my skintone perfectly!) and voila! It will stick like glue!!

Good Luck!!

I use Frostlite fluidline under it and it showed up really well. That is until the midday the color was really worn away and it wasn't as bright anymore..

I dropped mine and was debating whether or not to replace it or just put together with alcohol, i just put it together, it wasn't that wonderful to replace so i didn't lose any sleep over it.

Yes!! I did it 2 days ago, with Icon eyes as a liner (smudged all around my eyes) and Iris Print on top... and I was able to see some shimmers, but it wasn't like in the pot.

I didn't like it either.

Use silverbleu shadestick. They look awesome together!!!

jennifer's got the right idea! That's what I do too and it seems to work well for me. give it a shot

I use Iris Eyes Fluidline on the lid and Iris print overtop, ( w/ Digit inner/sketch on the outer lid ) my MA also suggested Silverblue shadestick but I didn't try it.

 

[lsd210]

I used it with golden lemon on lid, iris print in crease, midnight cowgirl to highlight brow bone, and Lorac purple haze in outer corner...the overall look was really nice, but I had to pack on iris print in order to get in to show up with some intensity

Finally found a good Iris Print Combo!

I bought Iris print when Culturebloom was released, but was having a hard time making it work for me. Today, I was determined to figure something out, and went for the shadows that I never would have thought would compliment Iris Print just to see the results. WELL - I LOVE IT!!
I used: Pink Pearl pigment over Beige-ing on the lid, with Iris Print and Trax in the crease with Nylon to highlight.

Anyone else found any good unlikely Iris Print combos?

I really like it with Botanical in the crease, then Iris Print and then Lavendar Sky in the inner corner!

I didn't like Iris Print. It was too glittery. I did one eye lightly with Cinders and one with Iris Print and to tell the truth after I blended well there wasn't a heck of a lot of difference. Iris Print is going back. Cinders is so much easier to work with.

 

[MarieJ]

With Fix+, the effect is ok !

 

[mspixieears]

I just tried mine today, and I wore it over Botanical e/s, put Iris Print all over the lid but packed it on at inner corner, then Plum Dressing e/s on outer corner blended towards the middle of lid.

Bit similar to VV's combo actually. I agree it does appear to be hard to wear, but this was just my first time with it. Glitter falling everywhere, and it seems a tad chalky but blends very well with other e/s thus getting rid of the chalky effect.

Damn! I should've tried eyelining with either Iris Eyes or Macroviolet, have a preference for the latter. Could try Non-Conformist too.

Mine had no color pay off. I didn't realise this till I depoted it so I couldn't take it back. (Note to self, try all eyeshadows before depotting from now on) I resorted to scraping the whole top layer off so now it's much better. But all in all what a huge waste.

Hmm I wonder why it was better when you scraped off a layer of it? Mind you, couldn't hurt to do the same thing to mine, the top was entirely made of glitter, sigh.
