And yes, the look works for eyes, too. Instead of reaching for your most pigmented powders, opt for sheer liquid or cream shadows that can be tapped onto lids with your fingers for that softly diffused effect. I’ve been especially into Violette_FR’s new Plume Eyeshadows, which melt into the skin with a blurred finish thanks to their soft, cream-to-powder formula. As Violette herself puts it, the goal with this product “isn’t intensity or precision,” but rather a diaphanous veil of color that feels effortless to apply. I also love Versed’s Sheer Stay Liquid Eyeshadow (particularly the shade Haze, a pale purple that looks borrowed from Monet’s Water Lilies paintings) and Armani Beauty’s Eye Tints — both deliver a quick, foolproof wash of color that you can swipe on and blend out in seconds.
