Stunning! It’s so hard to find cool toned golds and neutrals everything leans orange.
Hi Angela,
Indeed, orange-toned neutrals seem to be one of the trends in the last couple of years. They tend not to work for me, and I much prefer brown golds with no orange or peach undertone.
Thank you for posting your comment! :)
I love this palette! I picked it up a couple of weeks back and it’s a gorgeous gold palette although not something that everyone will fall for, if they already have gold shadows.
Hi Paris,
It is a beautiful palette. The color combination is very striking but I think it is still relatively wearable. I am looking forward to seeing it in person!
Thank you for stopping by again! :)
