NARS Violetta Duo. The first violets I can wear and not look goth-y. One shade is a soft, shimmery lilac, the other is a matte gray-violet. Utterly wearble, I always get compliments. These shades look good with peach,bone, taupe, etc.
Violet pigment=love. For those who like Trax, you HAVE to try Nars Strada! Looks alot like Trax but a ton better! I never reached for mine after I got Strada.
I really like Deep Purple or Grape/Entremauve pigments for dark purples and Lovely Lily or Quietly for a softer lilac. If you are looking for a matte piggie try Rich Purple for a dark one or French Violet for a lighter one.
