What It Is

A pinkish violet pressed-powder eye shadow

HOW IT LOOKS/FEELS:

This orchid shade has pink undertones and blue shimmer that gives a pretty, prismatic result.

WHY WE LIKE IT:

The medium violet shade is a fresher take on moody purples. The plastic compact feels flimsy, but this pigment inside is truly a bargain.
