Julie Hewett Rue Burgundy Hue eye colour, Natural Cheekie

Rue Burgundy Hue cream eyeshadow/liner, Natural Cheekie.

Swatches (in opposite order):

Applied:

Rue Burgundy on lid up to crease, Natural on cheeks and lips. This is a very simple face (I'm not a make-up artist, and don't aspire to be. I've usually got about 5 minutes to make myself look vaguely human in the morning.) I love the colour of the Rue Burgundy, which is more of a bronzey plum than a true burgundy, but as this is a cream product it does fade and crease quite quickly, particularly if you don't set it with some sort of powder (either a loose translucent powder, or a toning powder eyeshadow.)

I've wanted Rue Burgundy since seeing this post on www.makeupmole.com, of Rachel Weisz wearing it at a premiere. I keep meaning to get that Chanel eyeshadow too.

Rue Burgundy reminds me quite a lot of the Christopher Drummond loose powder eyeshadow in Marrom that I bought recently (the Marrom is more of a plummy bronze, but has a similar feel/look) and I think the two would work very well layered together. I'll post a picture of the Christopher Drummond colour products I bought applied, and my thoughts on them, later this week.
