    Usually I can't wear certain purple or reddish colors because it makes me look like I have been crying. But, to my surprise, Star Violet worked for my NC30 coloring/brown eyes/brown hair. It really...

    I really want to like this color, but it just goes on too red, and doesn't compliment my cool toned skin. I can make it work if I blend it well with other shadows or pigments, but to me, the mark...

    Why didn't I notice this shadow before?! I was on a buying binge one day, and just picked up 6 interesting shadows to try at home. Star violet is one of my favourites from the haul. I normally...

    It’s a veluxe pearl which in my opinion are the best of MAC's shadows in terms of pigmentation and blendability and the only ones worth purchasing I reckon. This is less violet and more of a...

    Woah! Gorgeous shade! It reminds me a bit of Bare Escentuals Sex Kitten (my favorite e/s shade ever!) but more on the purple side (Sex Kitten is more bergundy). I would describe Star Violet as a...

    I'm a GGG & on me, this is a gorgeous plummy bronze. I'm yet another to be won over by Veluxe Pearl shadows!! I love pairing this one with Motif :-)

    I love this color! I bought it mostly because this rich burgandy is a color I love, though not necessarily one I would wear. I find that rose/burgandy eyeshadows can sometimes make me look like...

    I didn’t think I would care much for this eyeshadow. But it’s proven itself to be a rather gorgeous and versatile pinkish violet. There’s nothing strikingly novel about the subdued color, but...

    Lovely color - one of my favourite MAC e/s, plummy, reddish brown. I like wearing it over Artjam paint, to make for a very different type of smoky eye.

    I am having so much fun with this eyeshadow! Although it doesn't look all that unique in the pot, Star Violet is a true chameleon on my lids. Depending upon application (wet or dry, amount of...

    Star Violet is a pinkish-violet-light bronzey color with a metallic sheen. It can be hard to match colors with this shade, but I like to wear it with UD Last Call (a darker version to accentuate...

    This reminded me a lot of Trax which I already have. I think it makes my eyes look bruised if anything. I think this color is definately more hype that it's new, not that it's particuarly nice.

    Since this is a Veluxe Pearl, I can hardly say no to this e/s. The color appears to be a plummy/burgundy/shimmery/kinda brown color. More burgundy than anything when I wear it. Very blendable,...

    Star Violet is a pretty pinkish-brownish-plum colour, and looks lovely on my blue eyes. The Veluxe Pearl formula is great, and lasts well. I would buy this again. Me: N1/NC15, blue eyes, blonde hair.
