Color Guide

EYE DUSTERS: These long lasting, sophisticated colors can go from a sheer wash to viva-glam. They work great together and with the Liners and Cheek/Eye/Lip Dusters. You will find endless possibilities for beautiful, original, and healthy eyes. Here is a little more on each color and some color combinations we love. And we love to hear from you about your own favorite looks.

How to make eye color pop? Try colors opposite of your eye color.

Wild Iris: This purple shade is neutral in tone and semi-matte. A sheen and unique dimensionality of violet/purple hues becomes more vivid when applied wet. Purple shades are also considered to be one of the most universal eye colors along with gold (See Gualala Gold). Looks great as liner and makes a beautiful plum/warmer purple layered with Caspar coral. Layer it over or use with Fawn brown, Gualala Gold, or Boonville Brown, for naturally dazzling touch of color. Or Create a Periwinkle shade layered or mixed with Top of the World.

Glass Beach Green: This medium toned sea foam green works great as a soft, nearly matte, everyday color or wet for more sheen and as a colorful liner. Try making Teal (which compliments all eye colors) by layering it over Top of the World; teal makes a great liner when using both shades damp. Try an emerald liner by layering over Black Bear Liner.

Trillium: This nearly white, shimmering shadow is a necessity as a highlighter. Try damp to see the silver-like color that emerges which works great on the lids or brow bones for extra drama. You can use it on top of any color to create a lighter new shimmering color. And, try adding a small amount to the middle of your bottom lip over a lip gloss for a plumping effect, over gloss for a lighter/frosty shade, or on your cheekbones as a highlighter. Plus, it mixes great with California Blonde in any application.

Fawn Brown: A classic neutral brown with a very subtle beige sheen. Applied wet, a deep multi-tonal brown color emerges. Works great as a dark brown liner when applied wet or for a smoky brown look. A slightly warmer and lighter brown comes out when applied less damp or dry, leaving you with so many options from one must have color. Try California Blonde over it (slightly damp or dry) for a shimmering taupe-like shade.

California Blonde: This gold/yellow shadow/highlighter enhanced with shimmery mica minerals is a very popular shade and has many uses. It works great as a light everyday color which helps the look of tired lids. Accent brow bones, and in the corner of the eyes for a golden lift. Gives a stunning golden blonde sheen used wet. Also looks great used on the lips with our lip glosses. On the eyes, it looks stunning with Gualala Gold, Caspar Coral, Big River Bronze and Trillium.

Top of the World: This slate blue shade with sparkle works great for a smoky eye or you can apply less for a more subtle tone. Works well for many skin tones, eye colors, and all ages since the blue and sparkle is subtle yet sultry. Transforms to a gorgeous liner used damp. Apply wet to the lid for a smoldering, glimmering lid. It also looks great with Trillium, Wild Iris, and Glass Beach Green for fun creations of eye shadows and liners.

EYE LINER: These long lasting, classic, and easy to use liners, work as liners or shadows. They can be used wet or dry, layered for intensity and work great with any of the dusters. Here is a little more on each color and some color combinations we love. And we love to hear from you about your own favorite looks.

Boonville Brown: This deep brown liner looks great dry as deep brown shadow or on dark brown brows. It looks beautiful as a rich brown liner used damp and compliments most of the duster shades. A great compliment to blue or green eyes, and looks great with Gualala gold, Fawn Brown, Wild Iris, and Big River Bronze to name a few. A great look comes from using it damp around the lashes, and then slightly damp to dry from the outer corner of the lash line and up and into the crease and above.

Black Bear: This rich black is a classic for all eye colors and looks great with all of our other products. For a deeper black, all you need to do is layer for more intensity. Black Bear works great for a classic smoky eye as it can be used dry (or slightly damp for more intensity) as a shadow and damp around both lash lines. A favorite to make this smoky look come to life is to include a pop of color such as Caspar Coral or Westport glow above the shadow but not up to the brow line.

Driftwood Shimmer: This soft black/dark gray liner has a very subtle shimmer from mica minerals that can give a slight blue cast to some skin tones. Not as blue as our Top of the World, but it works with it to create a great Gray/Blue look perfect to bring out brown eyes. A current favorite is using Caspar Coral, Westport Glow, or Big River Bronze, and using Driftwood as the liner and in and slightly above the crease- for all eye colors. Also looks great above a shimmering damp lid of Trillium for an icy look.

CHEEK/EYE/LIP DUSTERS: These highly pigmented, long lasting colors can be used on your cheeks, eyes, or lips. The right blush will make you look like you are glowing. These also work with the Liners and Eye Duster for endless looks. Your lips will be transformed to new colors and looks alone or combined with our lip glosses. Here is a little more on each color, what your best shade is and combinations.

Big River Bronze: This shade is a highly pigmented warm bronze. One of our most popular shades due to the warmth that is much more blush like than your typical bronzer. Great for deep skin tones but also works on lighter tones by using a small amount and blending well. On eyes, bronze has proven its staying power as a must-it works with or can replace your basic brown. Also great as eye liner used damp. It looks good on all as lip color and pairs perfectly with Redwood Lip Gloss.

Gualala Gold: Shimmering, golden-suede hue gives a light iridescent faux tan on the cheeks/cheek bones of lighter skin tones, while a more subtle radiance appears on darker skin tones. It looks great layered on the cheeks with Caspar Coral for a more earthy pink. For Eyes, looks great on all skin tones for a touch of golden shimmer that works with or layers great with all colors of dusters and liners. Glass Beach Green and Wild Iris look especially good layered with this shade; this has also been a great starting place for those who normally don’t wear "colors". Gold is considered one of the most wearable colors for all on the eyes. You pick the shade of metallic beauty for your lips by which gloss you match it with.

Caspar Coral: This semi-matte pink blush with subtle coral undertone is universally flattering to all skin tones on the cheeks, eyes, and lips. It gives a natural flush on cheeks that can be layered for deeper skin tones. On the eyes, this shade is incredible as a base color, or layered with Trillium and California Blonde with one of our liners. It looks great as a highlighter over a smoky eye with any of our liners or other deeper shades. Stunning color on the lips in any style you choose.

Westport Glow: A universally flattering apricot has a cool pink base with a slight warm yellow undertone, giving a beautiful natural flush to the cheeks. Highly pigmented, so light skin needs a touch of product and darker skin can layer for more intensity. Health Magazine, April 2010, praised apricot blush for complementing most complexions. On the eyes, this shade is perfect for many applications. It works as a base color, accent color, perfect pop for above a smoky lid, and great layered with Trillium. Applied wet, a deeper color emerges, that looks incredible paired with Boonville Brown as a liner and in the crease; a look that makes blue eyes pop. Makes a great lip liner/color as it is very similar to natural lip color, and looks great with all the gloss colors.

LIP GLOSS: Healthy, sheer, without any sticky or coated feel; these colors may appear dark or bright but apply sophisticated and light while hydrating and treating the lips. The versatility of our line applies to the glosses as well; you can layer the glosses to create new colors, and they work great with the Cheek/Eye/Lip dusters.

Sheer Huckleberry: This brown base with a purple has a sheer berry color to it. Even the lightest skin tones can wear this shade. Gualala Gold, Trillium, California Blonde, Little River Rose, and Abalone Shimmer look great over or mixed with this shade; this can make it metallic, or lighter, frostier, with more sheen. And remember that Westport Glow gives a perfect liner/lip color under any of our glosses due to the similarity to the natural lip color of many people. Although this is a stronger color, it is still sheer enough to wear with a smoky eye.

Redwood: This warm brown has subtle sparkle which looks more like sheen than sparkle when applied. This shade is known to make teeth looks shades whiter. Very versatile and looks great with any skin tone or eye color. Big River Bronze is a great match for a lip liner/color. Trillium, California blonde, and Abalone Shimmer look great with this shade to bring give a frostier/lighter look or more sheen. This lip color looks great with Glass Beach Green, Wild Iris, or shades with pops of these colors on the eyes.

Noyo Sunset: This is a light neutral peach shade with very subtle sparkle. It has a creamy look, which is versatile for all tones and occasions. Also compliments tanned or dark skin with the lighter hue. You can easily change the color with any of the Cheek/Eye/Lip Dusters. Or try layering lip glosses- Little River rose and Noyo Sunset is shown on one of our models. It makes a great look when Glass Beach Green is used on the eyes.

Little River Rose: This is a semi-sheer pink, with a silky look and luminous dimensionality that works great for all skin tones and becomes unique to each who wears it. Pink is not just for the young anymore with this shade. Caspar Coral pairs great with this shade to bring out a more intense sophisticated pick that is more lipstick like depending on the amounts used. We have found that this pink pairs perfectly with many colors including any of our brown-ish tones, Wild Iris (or Wild Iris and Caspar Coral) and Top of the World on the eyes. This color has been a must have for all ages and skin tones.

Abalone Shimmer: Abalone Shimmer is our version of a clear gloss with a kick. It looks white but applies sheer with a shimmering, silver/slightly white sheen that looks great on all complexions. Applied alone, the color becomes unique to those who wear it. It also looks great paired with any of our Cheek/Eye/Lip Dusters. And it looks wonderful with all colors of eyes, skin tones, and makeup. Top of the World, and Wild Iris look especially good with this subtle touch of cool clear; but all shades in our color line do well with this universal iridescent sheer tone. A must have to pair with your all of your looks and for your lips.

ORGANIC DYNAMIC CONCEALER: Currently, two great colors that give amazing coverage with neutralizing bases rather than too light colors that make imperfections more noticeable. Your skin will be treated to great healing and anti-inflammatory natural ingredients while being used for coverage and/or highlighting.

Virgin Creek: For Very Fair to Lighter Skin tones, with a neutralizing undertone. This color spans to colors as far as those that wear Coastal Light-Medium Foundation. The base is not as yellow (or sand colored) based as Sand Dunes. If you fall in the Coastal Light-Medium range, it is best that you look at your underlying skin tones to decide the best shade. This shade works best for those with more pink in their skin, but still helps neutralize the pink or purple in the skin.

Sand Dunes: For Light-Medium to Very Tan Skin, with a neutralizing undertone. This shade has a more sand colored neutralizing base (more yellow). This shade has worked for many skin tones including up to Mendo Medium Foundation skin tones.
