Tried this color on today. Contrast is a gorgeous deep midnight blue with shimmer in the same color. I tried this all over my lids and it really enhanced my brown eyes and made them pop. I can't...

Not the best colour on its own as a shadow. Tends to sit on top of the skin as opposed to blend in. However, I found it great to use it to "deepen up" other eyeshadows for a true smoulder.

Nice dark blue, looks almost dark grey on me. Still nice for a smokey effect, and it's not as harsh as black. If you're looking for a dark blue check out Deep Truth

This is a gorgeous deep deep navy with great dimension! The tiny blue shimmers are even more noticeable under well-lit conditions. I can imagine this being a perfect liner shade, given its dark...

A rich, deep, royal-purply blue. It goes on very dark on pale skin so I use it as a outer corner accent color and a liner (but sparingly and make sure you tap off any excess, it has a tendency to...

Contrast is a very deep blue with blue shimmer. The colour is too intense on my pale skin, but the Velvet formula is lovely and has great staying power. I wouldn't repurchase this colour. Me:...

The MAC MA used this on me in the crease and as a liner. I was sceptical first because I normally don't wear blue eyeshadows. Being very pleased with the result I ended up buying it. It's one of my...

One of my favorites for a smokey/dramatic look. It is what the site describes---"an intense purplish-blue flecked with blue shimmer". I like to pair this with Print for a smokey look. I like to...

Contrast is just beautiful. It is a deep navy blue with metallic/shimmer undertones. I've been known to wear it with Mythology on the lid, and Naked Lunch as highlighter. When I sport that look,...

Thanks to a wonderful MUA'er who swapped this to me. I probably never would have purchased this on my own since it looks like a few other eyeshadows that I already own but thank goodness I did!...

This is my all-time favorite crease/liner color. I can't really work the black for a smokey eye, so this is a great alternative. It's such a pretty dark blue with a nice shimmer to it. The...

This color is GORGEOUS! Exactly what I wanted Nehru to be. I got Nehru in a swap and was dissapointed when I got it. It was matte for one, and not deep blue but black with a blue undertone. I got...

Im NW20, and it looks like a less harsh black on me as liner, but goes on as a navy shadow for an evening (well, nightclub) look. I use this a going out staple--it doesn't smear, run, or fade. It...

Wow, on my NC20 skin, this shadow looks perfect, and makes my eyes look so beautiful. <i>Contrast</i> goes on as a dark, midnight blue with a metallic blue sheen. The sheen is not shimmery or...

Waaaaaaaaay too dark -- this looks black on me (NC20). I can't imagine using this as anything but an eyeliner. When I purchased this, I was hoping that it would be a shimmery dark blue eyeliner...

My favorite look with Contrast is to pair it in the crease with Idol Eyes, it leaves for an awesome metallic smokey eye. This color is so vibrant and versatile. Really brings out my light brown eyes.
