Rouge Bunny Rouge Lilac Reef Curassow & Trumpeter Koel eye shadow

I have two more of the new shadows from Rouge Bunny Rouge to share with you. Trumpeter Koel (£16) is a iridescent dark grey/charcoal base with a strong blue tone. Lilac Reef Curassow (£16) is a blue toned pale lilac, the finish is similar to the semi matte of Gracious Arasari.



Though Trumpeter Koel looks positively charcoal in some lights the blue tones are most apparent in the shots below.


The shades really compliment one another and are a really easy way to create a cool toned soft smoky look.


I bought the duo eye shadow keeper to house them (£12), its study and compact in size and comes with magnetised slots like the trio keeper. Here they are for size compare (as well as a single shadow and the envelopes the pans come in).






Ingredients:


I bought these from zuneta.com

  3. I have so many purples and cool greys, but none from RBR... I shouldn't get them, but I feel compelled... I love how you've combined them!

  6. You read my mind, and you did it all in one fantastic article with excellent pictures! These are the exact shade that have interested me, and I am afraid I now have to buy them, especially since you said they have a satin finish, which I adore.

    1. LOL Zuzu, see I just know you don't I ;)
      I do think you might have to buy them, Lilac Reef gives such a delicate cool wash and then Trumpeter Koel just gives it that bit of oomph, I think they will really suit you x

    4. LOL!!!!!!!!!! Can I get one of those while you are at it?! Replica just reminded me of just how much I have spent on Sunday Riley skincare, and now i want to add all of these GORGEOUS new RBR shadows to my stash. I think that really do need a sugar daddy or two (or three) to support my habits!

      BTW this is a brilliant article, and I completely agree with Kate that combination of these two colors is simply lovely. This is definitely a pale cool toned girls dream come true! My oh my how we all enable each other! :-) xo, L
