Bottom row (left to right): Copper Rose Quartz glaze, Raisin glaze, White Peach glaze.
Swatches in same order, except Copper Rose Quartz and Raisin, which I managed to switch. All swatches are dry, and on unprimed skin.
Trish McEvoy makes some gorgeous neutrals. The only reason I don't own more of them is that I found the counter a little too determined to make me buy more than I was looking for (trying to upsell, pushing the skincare quite heavily). For the life of me I'll never understand this kind of approach; you might make someone buy more than they intended once, but they'll avoid your counter forever afterwards if they don't remember it as a pleasant experience. It's also a bit annoying that the eyeshadows don't come with a container; you have to buy a charger or a planner to store them in.
Tawny is a little chalkier than the other shades; if I had to recommend one shade of sludge out of those I own from this line it would be Raisin. I do love the Deep Amethyst definer, which gives a smoky line, and can also be used wet for a more liquid liner effect. Pulling these out almost tempts me to brave the Trish McEvoy counter again; it has been quite a while since I last visited, and perhaps the sale technique has calmed down a little since then.

You have reminded me that I have slots in my Trish organiser too ... must rectify that! Copper Rose and Topaz look lovely. I already have Amethyst, it's a lovely shade.
ReplyDeleteThe pressed face powder and highlighters are lovely too. But I always thing that the blush pans are too small to get a decent brush onto.
I LOVE Trish eye shadows, especially Raisin. I fond that the sales technique varies by store.
ReplyDeleteThese look like perfect colours for me.. though I think my nearest store is quite a distance. I hate pushy sales. I avoid some stores for the same reason. Emma x
ReplyDeleteIf the Edinburgh counter is anything to go by, I don't think the sales voltage has been dimmed. She's very charming but still quite forceful to put it mildly.
ReplyDeleteHi Get Lippie - I find that too with the blushes, especially if you have them next to an eyeshadow in the palette.
ReplyDeleteHi SB - both the counters here are quite full on, although one was definitely worse!
Hi Computergirl - there are some lovely shades in the line.
Hi GreatSheElephant - it's sort of good to know it isn't just London!
