Christine,
It's so icy-blue that it's barely blue at all. Maybe a pure white one would be better for you, though!

know about the blue color. My skin is olive toned and I just don't know how blue would look on me. I love the idea of brightening up my face though.

I was one of those that wore blue eye shadows, I had assumed since my eyes are blue that this was the shade for me.

I hardly ever wear blue anymore, but like this one.

...like you have been having fun!

Just for the record, icy pink looks really nice all around the eye too - if you have light skin, that is. I am not sure how that looks on dark skin yet.

But it has to be ICY pink. Not light pink.

Just got the most fantastic eyeshadow I have ever seen (next to STAGELIGHT). Stumbled upon it and got it for a good price.

ORLANE Cobalt Blue duo. That has an icy silver blue in it. Looks really awesome with the dark blue accent. Absolutely GORGEOUS- and I can not STAND blue eyeshadow.

I almost wish I had never discovered this stuff. It is so hard to find and truly the nicest I have ever seen (next to STAGELIGHT). Stays on a long time too.

Great review!

Melissa,
The color shown in the picture on Epinions is way too bright. The color is very pale. I also have had a problem with blue (I was around in the 70's when bright blue eyeshadow was worn by the adults around me, LOL) - but this is different. I think you'd like it!

I do not know how to apply eye liner and have no clue how it would look on me, want to know though.

I might get brave and go to a counter and have someone show me, since there is no lanolin this is safe. I had no idea there is an Origins store too at the mall, will look around next month when I go.

Great review

Hey, Melissa! Please let me know if you find a sample!

Stacey, I'd always skimmed over these products, thinking they'd never work for me.

I'm SO glad you reviewed this, so I can take a second look at them.

As you mentioned, I tried a "stark-er, whiter" one, years ago, though I can't remember the brand.

This may be soft enough to make it work for me!

Thanks!

As tempting as..... (Reply to this comment)

....this Origins Eye Brightening Color Stick seems, I just can't get past the iceblue color. For years, that's been a big eyeshadow color no-no (even though I know it's more stylish now) and it's hard for me to forget.

BUT.....if it makes you less tired, then it sounds worth a shot. I'll keep my eye out for a sample online :-)

Great review!

I fixed the italics! You caught the review before I had a chance to fix it! LOL!

I had white eyeliner once (L'Oreal brand) and it was too stark. I like the pale color of my new Origins product - it's not as stark. White and pale eye liners are something that's sort of new to me anyway!

Thanks for the comment!
