    A soft matte almost taupy pink. I use this as a base/transition colour. It does have a sheen to it. Pretty on it's on or blended. Not much color payoff but it there. A basic pink shade to blend with.

    I haven't reached for this colour in a long time. It's a peachy, pink colour. Unfortunately, colour payoff is not that great and I find it takes multiple applications for the colour to show up on...

    The trick to getting this pretty lilac/light pink eyeshadow to show up is to apply it over a white base, such as fascinating eye kohl applied over lid, or chromaline pure white.

    Lovely colour but can hardly see it once applied! I guess this is ok for a subtle look. Will probably never finish this package, oh well!

    I was looking for a really pale pink eyeshadow and this color looked gorgeous in the pan but it just doesnt show up on my skin. I am pretty pale too. :/

    I was actually looking for a light clear pink shadow; and picked up this without noticing the subtle lavender... Once I put it on my eyes it was very noticeable. I do like the texture and the...

    Petalescent is a pretty, iridescent light pink with just a hint of lilac. Gorgeous shade! By all means, this is NOT a dark color pink at all, so I had to apply quite a lot of this shadow to make...

    Beautiful color (especially in the pan), but I am glad to see I'm not losing my mind and that other reviewers also had to "pack it on" in order to see any color on the lids. I wish it showed up a...

    This, along with Stila's e/s in Cassia, is a perfect wash color. It is so versatile and can be part of so many looks. Great for lightening shadows if theyre too dark.

    Very light pink/lilac. Quite a boring colour. I'm not too keen on pinks anyway. I have to pack it on if I want it to show up. It was a present but I wouldn't repurchase.

    This is a nice soft pink with a very slight golden undertone. This is a great summer color and would reccomend this for almost any skin type. However, you must apply alot of this to make it show up.

    I find it way too light on my NC35 skin...it doesn't show up at all (not even with base). I'm sad it didn't work out for me because I love the satin soft texture. Unfortunately, I'm taking it back...

    You know what? I really like this colour, even though it's pink. I'd picked it up by mistake a couple of springs ago when it was mistakenly put into a laven-dah! box. It does go beautifully with...

    Petalescent is a pretty pale pink colour on my pale skin, and looks lovely on my blue eyes. The Satin formula is easy to blend, and lasts well. I will repurchase this. Me: N1/NC15, blue eyes,...

    Very pretty purply-pink color. More purple than anything though. You kind of have to cake it on to see, but I like it. Looks great with violet pigment.

    I could not possibly feel more girly than I do when I'm wearing this eyeshadow. The pink shade really seems to set off my eye colour very well (green), in addition to making my whole eye area...
