Rouge Bunny Rouge Angelic Cockatiels eyeshadow

Shimmery flesh-toned eyeshadows are very popular; MAC has Naked Lunch, Stila has Kitten and NARS has All About Eve. I own or have owned all of these, but I haven't liked any of them as much as Rouge Bunny Rouge Angelic Cockatiels.

What I like about the Rouge Bunny Rouge is that it gives a soft, almost metallic glow rather than a frosty shimmer. The colour is also perfect for me; a slightly peachy beige, not too pink, too orange or too pale.

Swatched on my hand: the colour blends into my skin, the eyeshadow is nicely pigmented.
Applied. I wear this buffed over a base of Rouge Bunny Rouge Solstice Halcyon eyeshadow, a semi-matte slightly mauve taupe. Unfortunately, make up that looks nice in real life can look a bit washed out in photographs, but I hope this shows the general texture and glowiness of the eyeshadow.
Rouge Bunny Rouge remains one of my favourite make up brands, and I reach for the eyeshadows probably more than any others. I find them comfortable on my drier skin, and they last well without creasing or irritating my eyes.

In the UK, Rouge Bunny Rouge is available at www.zuneta.com, which does ship internationally. If you don't want to shop online and you have access to Le Metier de Beaute, Jojo is a good alternative with a similar texture, although a little darker than Angelic Cockatiels. There are pictures of Jojo on thebeautylookbook.com here.
