This shadow absolutely compliments brown eyes, it makes a nice wash all over lid color as well as a nice crease color. You brown eyed ladies out there might really like this e/s.

I have about a million and a half purple eyeshadows, or some variation of purple. This one, however, is one of my favorites. It didn't look too impressive in the pan, but on my eyes....just makes...

I have hazel eyes and thought purple or violet could bring out the green in them, but nothing does it like this eyeshadow. It's amazing!!! I like to apply a "natural" eye colour (Bourjois Beige...

Star Violet has to be my favourite MAC eyeshadow ever. It looks amazing layered and then blended in the crease outwards over Shadowy Lady, with a cooler toned pink or peach colour in the first 1/2...

This a pretty, moderately pearl-like shadow that is like a sheer plum/magenta. I like to put it in the crease w. naked lunch as a base and it looks really pretty. You can layer it to make it more...

I thought this was going to be great with my green eyes because of the "violet" in the name. Unfortunately this gave me the dreaded black eye look. It seemed to actually have red undertones which...

This is one of my favorite MAC shadows because it's really pigmented and extremely versatile. During the day I'll use it in the crease and blend it really well, or I'll use it under Naked Lunch for...

This is a very pretty cranberry, plum like, highly pigmented color that looks gorgeous paired with mulch, tempting, or romp (any brown). I would repurchase this one if I ever run out of it.

Star Violet is a plummy brown with a hint of pink. It's gorgeous and very easy to blend. I love using it with purples. I'd say it goes on a bit lighter than it looks in the pan. I would...
