So underated!

[User67]

What are some of your favorite e/s that you feel are totally underated? Like they are a must have for you, yet nobody else seems to really mention them much. For me it's the Patina e/s. I can't even express how much I adore this color. It's a HG for me & every time I hit pan on it I run right out & buy another one so I am never without it. I think it makes the most amazing neutral eye on any skin tone, but it gets like no love. Maybe because in the pan it looks like nothing special & isn't very eye cathing. Now what are some of your underated faves?

I think that honeylust eyeshadow is underrated...it is my absolute favorite. SO pretty!

 

[bellaetoile]

white frost. its a great, pure white shade that can be used alone, but is also fantastic for blending, or highlighting.

 

[aquarius11]

I love Kid...it's a great neutral that goes with just about anything.

 

[Katgirl625]

I feel like Soba gets no love...so I wanna give it some. It goes with so many shades...I heart it.

Honey Lust for me toooooo!

 

[meagannn]

yeahh i love honeylust too! and Motif... yay

 

[Chloe2277]

Texture and Quarry...if I can't figure out what to put in the crease I always grab for one of these and they have not failed me yet!

I rarely see anything positive written about Swish, but I love it. Ditto Crystal Avalanche.

 

[ben]

i agree with you, i LOVE patina!

 

[OrangeLuvinChik]

I love Femme Noir! Not just as a liner but for the crease too. Perfect for green smokey eyes!

 

[ledonatella]

I love Electra and Phloof!

 

[Glitziegal]

I love Shag, and Phloof. I have no idea why Shag was discontinued it is so darned versatile. It makes a great crease colour especially with Spring up or Gold Dusk.

 

[cloverette]

i love patina, too!

other underrated ones:

* nehru (for beautiful depth, on top of the crease color)
* fiction (for beautiful depth, on top of the crease color)
* motif (beautiful highlighter & very versatile)
* little madame & aristocrat mineralize e/s

Vex and Shale!

Aside from the above, I love to use any of the following darker shades for outer V, like:
Femme Noir
Plumage
Nehru
Sketch
Blu-Noir
Carbon
Beauty Marked
Shadowy Lady
Intoxicate

Another vote for Crystal Avalanche. I use this for everything, but I rarely hear anyone else give it any love!

 

[Cruella]

I love both Patina & Quarry - Quarry looks great on the lid w/Shale in the crease. I would also like to give a shout-out to two of my favorite shadows: Seedy Pearl & Digit. Whenever I do a purply/pinky look, those are great on the browbone & inner corner.

 

[tinkerbelle]

I really like Coquette. I can blend it with any color that I want deeper.

Hmmm for me its...
Motif
Trax
Gorgeous gold
and
Paradisco

Especially trax and paradisco, so many people complain about the texture, colour pay off or the colour of both of these but I adore them. Trax is an awesome crease colour when used with melton mauve and hepcat, and paradisco looks awesome with motif and sushi flower
