Ok, so, here are the Pure Hue swatches. I discovered that there are 6 of the current PHs that I don't have anything of.(I may have to remedy that) I also included the few discontinued ones I have just so you can use them as comparisons. The first two swatch pictures are indoors, artificial light, with flash. The rest are indoors, natural light, with flash. When I tried going outside, or, not using flash you could see the colors well but not the sparkles, or, interference. I just used a dry generic eyeshadow brush to apply them.(it was wiped off between each color) If there are any of them that you would like to see applied with a damp brush, or, wet, just let me know. Also let me know if you'd like to see any of them compared to another shade and I'll see what I can do.Smile

Here's a little sneak peek of some of my collection. This is one of my binders(I have two). And my little tray of full-size PHs.



And here are the swatches...



From left to right: Peony, Romance, Tea Rose, Moire, Garnet, Delicate Burgundy, Zinfandel.




From left to right: Alexandrite, Loganberry, Regal, Snapdragon, Ballet, Lavande, Angel Wing, Magic Wand.



From left to right: Mystery, Cobalt, Robins Egg, Jupiter, Bluebird, Peacoat, Heaven, Caribe.



From left to right: Fairy Green, Arbor, Grass, Meadow, Envy, Agate, Lichen, Lucky.



From left to right: Earthen Sage, Ancient Gold, Delicate Gold, 14K, Ambrette, Wizard Gold, Sunshine.



From left to right: Ruby, Watermelon, Sunstar, Suede, Hibiscus, Copper, Fox, Brocade, Adobe.



From left to right: Pewter, Smokescreen, Moon, Alchemy, Pixie Blue, Glimmer.



From top to bottom: Delicate Bronze, Coco Bean, Tarnish, Russet, Cocoa Mauve.

The paler arm is mine, the slightly more tan arm is Isabelle's.Smile She wanted to help.

I hope you enjoy these and find them helpful.

I don't really go on the makeup part of the forum to much, mostly on the Lounge. So I don't know what a swatch means? Can someone tell me? I feel kinda dumb lol. But I gotta say, I got a sample of Pixie Blue, and I LOVE it (came with an order, didn't order it myself). I want to get more (Like the actual thing) but I can't buy online stuff a lot anymore Frown

Yay, I'm glad you like them, ladies!

Nicki-chan, a swatch is just a sample that represents something, that gives you an idea of what the eye shadow(or traditionally fabric) really looks like. Hope that helps.Smile

Hi! I just thought I'd bump this to add the last few PH swatches that I didn't have before. I thought it would be a good time to add them since they're on sale so reasonable right now.Smile



Above, from top to bottom- Delicate Copper, Bronze, Dew, Jasper, Holy Grail, Sprite Pink, and Blue Haze.

Thanks for the swatches! I just stocked up on some Pure Hues full sizes (as a part of my first order, actually), and I love the colors, they're so rich! Your swatching will help me pick out my next ones to get, I think. Wink

I love my makeup bold, and while I think neutrals look good on others, I hate them on myself.
