Meh...I'm not really in love with this collection either...i have really been striking out this summer. i just have to accept that me and bronzy tones will never work and just move on. Both of the Eye Mosaics are very pretty but the only one that I think that i could carry off would be the Sahara Sun one. Maybe I will pink that one up but that's about all that will work for me from this collection.
