It’s definitely flattering for many skin tones, and its amazing red-brown shade brings warmth to a dramatic color. It’s earthy and sophisticated when matted, but when you add a little sheen it brings on the glam!

Kierra did a fab job with these two looks, first displaying earthy eyes and finishing with a glam lip.

Kierra Says for the everyday earthy Marsala eye:

I started with MAC Bamboom eyeshadow paint as a base, it brings out the warmth in the Cognac shadow. The hint of purple in it brings out the green in Jacquelyn’s eyes. It looks good on almost every eye color/skin tone.  I used Bobbi Brown Cognac eye shadow as the main color (deep wine) . pic3marsala

Kierra says for the everyday Marsala glam lip:

I kept Leah’s eyes simple and focused on a bold lip shade. When you’re in a rush, just a little mascara, blush, and a lip color makes you look put together.
