It’s a nice shade to darken the crease with, or use all over the lid for a really dramatic look. Nocturnelle eyeshadow is deep plummy purple color with a frost finish. I love the pigmentation and texture of this particular shade it’s incredibly easy to blend. Overall, it leans on the cool side, but it’s not too cool for warmer skin tones to use without much trouble. It has more plumminess to it, and the texture is a veluxe pearl, so the finish is smooth and the color extremely blendable.īeautiful Iris eyeshadow is a pearly lavender-purple color. Satellite Dreams eyeshadow is a warmer medium purple shade. See five more must-have purple eyeshadows, plus get pairing ideas and some limited edition recommendations! It’s a well-pigmented shadow with a frost finish. I love to wear this with golds, pinks, and silvers.

It’s fairly cool in tone, but it’s not overly cool. Parfait Amour eyeshadow is a medium-bright blue-purple, almost a violet shade.

It’s a very pretty shade of mauve-purple with warm red tones in it. Hepcat eyeshadow is similar to Plum Dressing (read above!), though I’d say it runs a little redder. I prefer Plum Dressing’s texture, but I love Hepcat’s name 😉 Let me make a note and say that Plum Dressing and Hepcat are very similar, and you probably only need one. If you find cool-tones hard to work with on your skin tone, consider mauve/red-based purples instead. It has a little bit of red tones to it, which makes it not just a cool-toned purple. Plum Dressing eyeshadow is a pretty mauvey-purple color. I don’t care what new collection is coming out next, THIS outranks it! Seriously, if you do not have this in your collection, move it to the TOP of your list. The sheen of it is both fuchsia and purple, which makes it very much like a duochrome. It’s a vibrant fuchsia-purple color with soft shimmer. Stars ‘n Rockets eyeshadow is one of my all-time favorite eyeshadows–from any brand, any color family–because it is absolutely stunning.
