I love earthy metallic shades, especially gold and bronze. Every time I come across a new eye shadow range, the bronze or coppery shades are the first I would try on and usually buy. If I had enough money, I think I would buy all existing eye shadows and eyeliners in earth tones. In my opinion they suit all eye colors, but especially look good on brown eyes. The earthy tones are so easy to layer over each other , and no matter what combination, they always look great.
I swatched the earth metal eye shadows and eye pencils I own, for an easy comparison. They are clickable and can be made larger for a better view.
