I have brown eyes and warm tan skin and I get a ton of compliments on how pretty and twinkly my eyes look when I wear this. This color would look stunning with green eyes though. Star Violet is a...

Beautiful colour that others have already described--a purply beige-ish pinky colour that doesn't look like you've been bruised. Beautiful with expensive pink or any gold shadow. Texture is superb.

One of my all time favorites by MAC. I wouldn't classify Star Violet as a true purple. I feel it belongs in the pink family. SV is more of a pinkish plum color with a slight hint of brown. SV...

I absolutely love this shadow. I like to wear it in the crease with satin taupe on the lid. This shadow is great if you have a cool skintone because it has pinkish undertones as opposed to red...

I have been on the search for the perfect purple eyeshadow for a long time. This isn't it, just so you know. For me, the perfect purple eyeshadow is a reddish purple (not pink/fuschia) and for...

This is a sheer, subtle, versatile colour. Really compliments green and hazel eyes. SV is in summer for me what sable is for the winter. I like pairing it with jest.

I love this shade as a lid color against my dark brown (practically black) eyes. It really brings a brightness that isn't so obvious, as the colour can appear bronzey, dark burgundy with gold...

I absolutely love Star Violet! I bought it because it looked gorgeous in the pan, but to be honest, I didn't think it would be as versatile as it it. If you wear a pink-ish eyeshadow on the lid...

This is a nice shade but it wasn't at all what I expected. I ordered it online and thought it would be more purple but it's actually a mauve/rosey hue with gold/bronze undertones. I like it but the...

Okay product. Many pinks and warm purples tend to make my eyes look infected but Star Violet avoids that. I like the Veluxe Pearl finish most out of the MAC finishes. Applies smooth and not...

My all-time favorite MAC eyeshadow. It looks amazing when paired with a gold eyeshadow. The color really brings out my brown eyes.

Star Violet brings out my green eyes most when I wear it in the crease rather than the whole lid. I wore this the other day with Grand Entrance on the lid, Star Violet on the outer lid, Nocturnelle...
