Today I want to show you 7 grey/silver/pewter eye shadows that I really like.
Some of them: Illamasqua , ArtDeco and Estee Lauder on the photo
So I will show you how those 7 shadows look swatched. This post is not really a review, just some swatches. But I already reviewed some of the products from this post and there is a link to the review if I have one!
I’ve also tried to choose different textures: cream shadows, powder shadows and even loose pigment.
The products that I’ve chosen are:
1. Rouge Bunny Rouge Loose Glitter Pigment Fire Drops in Night Wind Sailing, iridescent metallic pewter. You can get yours for £ 24 at zuneta.
2. ArtDeco #605 eye shadows, metallic silvery grey. You can read a detailed review here.
3. Urban Decay eye shadows in Gunmetal, gunmetal grey with silver glitter.
4. Urban Decay eye shadows in S&M, bright metallic silver
5. Estee Lauder Double Wear Stay-in-Place ShadowCreme in Silver Leaf. Detailed review and swatches of it and one more shade coming soon!
6. Illamasqua Liquid Metal in Surge, metallic pewter. See how it looks like on the eyes here.
7. Illamasqua Liquid Metal in Phenomena, metallic silver. Detailed review and swatches.
So here are the swatches with flash.
So are you a fan of such shades? Which one is your favourite?
For really metallic effect I like MAC metal pigments. They contain aluminum so they are really bold.

I also have SURGE but haven’t use it so far 😛
I received an DIOR duo from the current collection. It’s also nice. A bit more white-silver than dark one:

The ESTEE LAUDER one looks SO pretty in the jar. I just fell in love.
Thanks for the comparison
The EL one is a very beautiful shade!. Love the Illamasqua Surge but it creases. Thanks for the links 😉
I like UD Gunmetal. It looks great! 🙂
It contains small silver glitter.
I think Surge is a beautiful shade, but I’m pretty sure it would crase terribly on me… xxx
Unfortunately, it will. But the colour is gorgeous! How was you BDay, lovely? x
LOVE love love this post. Your arm is full of beautiful choices!! Now I want them all!
Thank you 🙂 You should check out the EL one, it’s absolutely gorgeous and stays on pretty well! But it’s a LE I believe.
It looks gorgeous! Liquid Metal from Illamasqua is awsome.
omg the finish on the Illamasqua shadows are unbelievable
I’m starting to fall in love w/ cream shadows more and more lately
Gunmetal looks gorgeous! The Rouge Bunny Rouge shade is very pretty too!
Gorgeous swatches!!!! 🙂 I love ArtDeco eyeshadows, I have about 25 of them! 🙂
That’s great. I have less than 10, I’ve finished some of them, can you imagine? 🙂
I have the two Illamasqua liquid metals and LOVE them sooo much! <3
