Eye Shadow Recommendations - Deep Navy Blue & Deep Wine/Burgundy [ Edited ]

[#1]

Hello!

I have dark brown hair, dark brown eyes, and medium fair complexion. Please recommend a Deep Blue Eye Shadow (similar to Sephora - Welcome Aboard) and Deep Wine/Burgundy Eye Shadow (similair to Sephora - Precious Gem) in a high end brand that is buttery in texture and super easy to blend like the Hourglass and Urban Decay formulations.

I tried to find the shades in UD, but their deepest blue shade (Evidence) has a sheen that takes away from the depth of the blue, and their closest shade to burgundy (Last Call) has too much pink/rose, whereas I want a true rich deep wine/burgundy.

Also, please comment on the quality of MUFE Diamond Eye Shadow singles - are they buttery like UD and easy to blend? I have seen mixed reviews online so I am not sure if I should go for it. They do have a deep wine colour - Diamond Burgundy 311. 

Please also comment on the texture/quality of Stila (Pigalle). 

Thanks!

Hi!  Here are a couple suggestions-the first is the Smashbox Eye Enhancing Palette for brown eyes.  The shadows have a great smooth texture that are very pigmented, and the palette has both of the shades you wanted:

If you swatch these shades in the store and they're not what your looking for, I would definitely suggest the MUFE Diamond eye shadows.  While some of these shadows aren't very buttery, they're so pigmented and have great staying power.

Hope this helps!

Hi pinkwine11,

I couldn't agree anymore with maltipoo66! The brown eyes smashbox palette will compliment your eyes very well!

In terms of the MUFE diamond eyeshadows, they're very silky and have excellent pigmentation. The same goes for Stila eyeshadows, they're very buttery! I'm a huge fan of both brand's shadows .
