fixation: kat von d true romance eyeshadow palette in true love


I kind of love Kat Von D's "stickin-it-to-the-man" sense of style (read: tattoos-a-plenty and full-throttle makeup), which appeals to my inner goth-rebel. Those same sensibilities show up in her makeup line for Sephora, and her newest holiday palette offering, the True Romance Eyeshadow Palette in True Love, is about breakin' all the rules when it comes to beauty and eyeshadow pairings. While most palettes give us either "cool" or "warm" shades – (and never the twain shall meet) – True Love gives us both in one slick black matte case, and they're meant to be mixed and matched. Now, you might not think that purple and gold would go well together, but Kat's picks, most of which have a hit of metallic to them, mesh together surprisingly well, giving a sort of edgy royalty effect. The stand-outs are Peanut, an iridescent champagne with tinges of silver; Benji, a creamy, highly pigmented coppery gold; and Cholita, a deep, dark burgundy purple with subtle shimmer. Now go forth and blend.
