Similarities between d'bohemia e/s and existing ones

[Shawna]

I am hoping my store finally gets the e/s in tommorow. Before I go and spend money on 5 new shadows, are there similarities between the new ones and any older ones. For example, is bagatelle pretty close to goldmine? I have goldmine so could I live without bagatelle? Also, I have ingenue blue, how similar is it to prose and fancy? My sister already bought me d'bohemia e/s so I'm not worried about similarities with it, just the other four. If I can live without some of the new e/s I'll have more $ for the lustreglasses. I am definitely getting Shade. TIA

Shade is to Tealo as Sage Green is to Forever Green.
I passed on that.

Prose & Fancy is rumored to be exactly like the Dark Teal Pro shadow.

Oceanique, however, is completely original and everyone must have it.

Bagatelle is a bit darker version of Beaded, but it is gorgeous!

I did't buy Rummy cause I thought it was so similar to like Brun and Mystery even....

it's that dark?

i was wondering if i should get it because i'm almost completely out of Mulch and need a medium brown for everyday.

now that i'm *gulp* 2 months away from turning 45, i'm wondering if i should give up on frosted eyeshadow because Mulch is shimmery and flat is supposedly better on a "mature" face.

so i was considering Rummy.

thoughts?

Don't feel because you are in your 40's the colors you use are more limited now, be you, be beautiful and wear whatever you want

And I did get Rummy and I use it as a crease color and I think it's great but keep in mind I'm a nw50.

I think you have to be more careful with shimmers as you get older especially those that have that white frosty look,,... I think so long as they aren't settling into places that you don't want them too and look good,.. then more power to you honey! I don't intend to give up anything until I absolutely have too,.....

I think it's a LITTLE bit lighter than Brun and Mystery (didn't seem as shimmery as Mystery though, so you could totally get this without worrying about shimmer, IMO).

If you are looking for a medium brown color to use as crease and lining, Rummy will work for you!

i use REALLY dark shades for crease and lining - Mystery, Embark and Showstopper.

i'm a DRAMATIC makeup person - all those years of being on stage in operas shaped my makeup views!

my foundation is NC 15-20.
