The Deeper Hues Thread (Swatches, Color Matching, etc.)

[ElleElleG]

*new group located here: Deeper Shades

Have a deeper hue and want to know how a product might look on your skin tone?  This is the place for you!

Several ladies expressed interest in having a BIC group dedicated to WOC.  Such a group would serve as a central reference point for swatches, color matching and the like, which can often be difficult to find.  While I have no idea whether such a group will ever be created I figured it would be nice to at least have a thread.

It should go without saying, but  **Ladies (and gents) of all hues are more than welcome **

@ElleElleG Yeah I agree. The other multisticks I'll use on my face and eyes, but I don't like to use them on my mouth either, but I will in a pinch!

THis lippie looks WAY better IRL! I took a bad pic up there with my 5:30am migraine brain!!! It wore beautifully all day on my lips, but like @fieldsofclover previously reported, it creased on my eyes, even with primer.

Huda Beauty Smokey Obsessions Palette 

I'm not sure how I feel about Huda but I'll give her credit for this palette. In comparison to all the other obsession palettes this is by far the creamiest and most pigmented!

@ElleElleG so pretty! some of them look almost pinkish. this pic made me look at the rest and now i'm interested in the mauve one. any swatches?

[ElleElleG]

Hi @BrwnSugaG !  I do not have any personally but if I come across some on deeper skin tone (or if I am in store anytime soon and can do some) I'll share them 😃

[BrwnSugaG]

@ElleElleG thanks - don't go out of your way tho! i totally don't need to buy anything 🙂

I have the mauve obsessions, I can swatch it for you tomorrow if you are still interested.

I had the warm obsessions but returned it. the only color that swatched anything close to a dream was the center metallic color. I was thinking about the electric one. BUT I couldn't justify buying it if I already have the electric palette from UD.

[ElleElleG]

The warm obsessions seems to be the dud of the four palettes.  Of all the reviews I have watch/read it's pretty consistent which is sad.

@ElleElleG Whoa these are some beautiful swatches. Thanks for making this thread it was really needed. 

[ElleElleG]

Thank you @darkiceis 😊😊😊

[mermadelove]

I avea athe Huda ELECTRIC palette and I love it! Thanks for swatching this!!!

[ElleElleG]

@mermadelove I have that as well but haven't used it yet.  What do you think of it?

[mermadelove]

@ElleElleG. Gosh I just saw my horrible typing from earlier. Sorry about the migraine brain! I love all the Huda palettes I have. The electric is pretty fun. I bought it for the vibrant yellow but it looks way more mustard than paintbox unless I put a white base underneath. Then it really pops! Either way it’s gorgeous, pigmented and smooooooth. I love that about a Huda. That and the legitimately effortless blending!

[ElleElleG]

LOL @mermadelove I knew what you meant!  Thanks for sharing your thoughts, I may check out some of her other eyeshadows in the future.
