How to Wear Tarina Tarantino’s Ribbon (Eye Dream Hypershadow)

There’s a new girl in makeup town and it’s Tarina Tarantino. The famed jewelry designer recently launched her new makeup collection exclusively at Sephora and has many a beauty blogger a buzz, including this one. The line is geared for women of all ages (hooray!) and is being promoted as “makeup-as-accessories.” From glosses to blushes to primers, the extensive collection comes in super-cute pale pink and silver packaging. I like the packaging as it makes it easy to spot in my amidst the black packaging of so many other brands. 
Below is one of Tarina Tarantino’s Eye Dream Hypershadows in the colour Ribbon, a pretty dark lilac colour. To me, this is in the same colour family as MAC’s Stars & Rockets. The picture below doesn’t do any justice to how pretty this colour really is. It’s definitely ‘swatch-worthy’ the next time you are in Sephora.

The shadow is highly pigmented and smooth to apply
In theory, I would love to wear this colour regularly and I do have many colours that are in the same colour range in my collection. But being my neutrals-loving self, I rarely reach for them.So, I’ll throw it over to you ladies. Help this makeup mama find a way to throw colour into my life and use this lovely specimen of a shadow. What would you pair with this type of colour? 
On another note, Tarina Tarantino will be in Toronto next week on March 16 at the Eaton Centre, from 6 p.m. – 8 p.m.. Who’s going?! Anyone try this line yet?
