    I have many LM eyeshadows including this color. I have to judge my love of a color by how much I use over time. After all, that is the true test, what you use is what you love. I use this...

    I wish there was a picture of this eyeshadow because it is gorgeous. I went into Sephora many times and this shadow was so unique. A purple with a gold duo chrome and gold superfine sparkle. I...

    I bought this online and was a little confused on the color description. Some called this "mid-tone violet" (and I had no idea what that meant) others called it "lavender." When I finally saw it in...

    This is quite possibly my favourite eyeshadow ever. I first tried it in the LM Artist Palette for Eyes from the Holiday 2013 collection where I fell in love with the shade. I was absolutely...

    This is my first LM eye shadow purchase despite all of my years of loving makeup. For some reason, her eyeshadows never appealed to me. I bought this as a 'pick me up' treat at Sephora and the...

    This color is so beautiful. I am not really an eyeshadow person at all (I usually don't find it flattering on me and it takes work to blend, etc., although I'm mostly just inexperienced with it)...

    Duochrome colour with purple and gold. It's perfect colour but it does not stay long even if with base.

    I'm really surprised that there are so few reviews for this shade! African Violet is one of the classics from the Laura Mercier line, almost up there with her tinted moisturizers and Secret...

    When I was diagnosed allergic to formaldehyde releasers, blue dye, and cobalt in early 2011 I was given a very limited list of make-up products free of my allergens. I bought several hundred...

    NW10-15 (neutral-cool toned, very fair), blue eyes, Color season is True Summer, Baumann Skin Type is OSPW. I see all the positive reviews are for brown eyes. I wonder if this shade just doesn't...

    African Violet is a really pretty lavender shadow with a light golden sheen. I have brown eyes with some hazel flecks and this shadow makes my eyes look like a hazel green. The shadow can look...

    This is a duochrome eyeshadow that goes on smooth and looks super luxe, thanks to the gold cast in this otherwise muted purple shadow. It looks subtle but whenever light catches the gold tone in...

    I can't believe no one has written a review just on this color. I think it's just beautiful - perfect for summer! I saw it for the first time today in Sephora, and had to buy it. It's a beautiful...
