We love your feedback! Help us name Shade 1 and 2 for a chance to receive our Exquisite Eye Liquid Shadows before they launch!

Re: Name Our Shades!

I don't know why but the first thing that came up in my head after seeing Shade 1 is "Rosé" (as in rosé wine :P). Shade 2 reminds me of the Wisteria tree.

 

Speaking of gems,

Shade 1 may be Rose Quartz

Shade 2 may be Amethyst 

Re: Name Our Shades!

I said wysteria too!

Re: Name Our Shades!

Sorry! I didn't see your post a while back. Credits goes to you then 😄

Re: Name Our Shades!

@prti - I think it's so sweet that you gave credit for "Wysteria" to @makeupobesessed. I think it was like a 'brilliant minds think alike' thing. (I like it too.)

 

You could have just read her comment and breezed by, so I just thought it was a nice gesture. 💕

Just thought I'd mention that. 👊 (I love that there is a 'fist bump' emo. 😁)

Re: Name Our Shades!

🙂 Thanks for the kind comment, @kssweetheart. I've gotten my ideas stolen a couple of times before so I think it would suck for others if I just repeat their creative ideas.

Re: Name Our Shades!

They are so beautiful!!

 

Shade 1: rosette, rosette blush, beacon, mantle bloom,pumice

Shade 2: violaceous, amaranthine, harvest, plum spark ambrosia, floret

Re: Name Our Shades!

Shade 1- rose gold or something similar to that

Shade 2- frozen lilac/lavender something along those lines. Even Frozen Plum, something frozen though because it really seems like a "frozen" colour

 

Your names for your shades are very minimal so sticking with that trend would suit better I think.

Re: Name Our Shades!

@BlueEyeAll - or Sugarplums, frosty sugarplums.

I agree with going minimal since their other color names are no frills, it's kinda refreshing not having to figure out exactly what color Flowered Tasty Lace might be, mostly if onine shopping, in-store not such a big deal. (made up name btw)

On the other hand, all basic names from everyone would become boring. A good mix works well. 😊

Re: Name Our Shades!

Shade 1: Pink Pearl

Shade 2: Sterling Orchid

Re: Name Our Shades!

Shade 1: Peanut Butter

Shade 2: Raisin Bread

 

 

I think I'm hungry....

Re: Name Our Shades!

@melded - Now I'M hungry too! Actually, have been hungry, tried to come on to bt to get thoughts of food out of my head. It must be a sign that I should have something, even though it's so late.

The stomach wants what the stomach wants.😉

Re: Name Our Shades!

#1 Rhodonite  (beautiful rosy colored crystals)

 

#2 Syringa  (the genus of the lilac flower)

 

I like names that mean something and that are different! 🙂

Re: Name Our Shades!

@ShopgirlM - Like Rhodolite Garnet gemstones. See QVC (or my jewelry box :p)

Re: Name Our Shades!

Yes @kssweetheart! Is it weird that I like to watch QVC while I'm getting ready sometimes? Idk what it is about it, it just relaxes me (depending what they are selling). 🙂

Re: Name Our Shades!

@ShopgirlM - Hi - I don't think it's weird at all to watch QVC while getting ready - but maybe that's because I often do the very same thing! 😛 I Love my QVC.

 

I go in cycles, if there's a certain CD/LP that I'm really into, I will just let it play repeatedly until I'm all ready.

Eric Clapton has helped me get ready for years and years during various stages. (Sorry Eric.) Years back, before getting his CD called 24 Nights I used to watch the video tape. Thank Heavens he couldn't see me! 😨 That's where the 'sorry' is really fitting. HAD to get the CD though, having him on my TV was Waaaaaay too distracting! 😍

 

I sort of need something mindless on when I get ready, QVC or sometimes something I've watched before and enjoyed, so it doesn't require your full attention. Sounds like you're the same. Hey, this would make a good thread!

 

Quick question - I'm not sure if your name is capital "I" M or lower case "L"M - the Capital I and lowercase L look the same. I figured it's supposed to be like - 'Shop girl I am', but shortened. Wanted to be sure so I type your name correctly after the @ - I hope that made sense. 😊

Re: Name Our Shades!

@kssweetheart My favorite movie ever is a movie by Steve Martin called Shopgirl. He adapted it from a beautiful novella he wrote with the same name. He starred in it with Claire Danes who played the main character Mirabelle. Hence ShopgirlM! 🙂

Re: Name Our Shades!

How about "Penny Lane" and "Purple Rain"? 🙂

Re: Name Our Shades!

1. Sun Fox 

2. Misty Maven

 

I love names that have a little fantasy/mystery about them. Good luck on your search!

Re: Name Our Shades!

1.  Gold plated (or tipped) rose

2.  Frozen (or iced) lavender/lilac 

Looking at the shades, 1 seems to be almost duochrome in finish, with a hint of rose and a hint of gold, shifting (so not just rose gold).  I'm not seeing sand in it.

2 seems cool in tone, and more a lilac or lavender, without a hint of pink.  And an iced version, as opposed to a true neutral/pigmented version, of a soft but true purple.  I'm not seeing stardust.

But your names seem pretty minimalistic and descriptive.  So, alternatively:

1.  Rose gold

2. Lilac/Lavender

Or go with the star/planet theme all the way and pick

1.  Mars/Jupiter

2. Venus

Those are my inputs.  Not sure they're super helpful but at least I tried!

Re: Name Our Shades!

Wysteria for shade 2...
