i have quite a few blue eyeshadows in my collection. i used to think blue look hideous on asians. but after seeing some pretty asian models with blue lids from some chinese fashion magazines a few seasons ago, i fell in love. i started to buy blue eyeshadows.

if you are regular reader you'll notice a lot of my looks are blue.

product of the day is edm's bubble tea. i don't know if edm changed the forumla, the color shown on the website is too grey. it's bright greenish blue. the pic from the swatch is too blurry. i'll try to take it again and post it here when i have time.

I really like blue too, but depending on how I put it on. Too dark of a blue makes me look like I'm in the 80's so I really got to play around with it. You look great and the blue doesn't seem overpowering.

@cynthia, have you tried sky blue? i think it was the first blue i started experimented with. start with light wash of color to get use to it.
