The original color is deceptively purple in the pot, but when applied dry has a gray-blue smoky undertone. Used wet, it is intensely purple. This clone mimics that smoky blueness when used dry, and also simulates the purple achieved with wet-lining.

Using the little scoop that comes with the Philosophy Hope in a Bottle:
1 Scoop of Bunny Hop

Scoop is level full. Depending on how the minerals clump (Opal,
Chameleon and Ocean) clump more than Bunny Hop. (From Mary Ann)

Turquoise Sea Clone
The dry-in-the-pot color of this clone doesn't quite appear to match the original, but when applied wet, as with a liner, and when applied dry to the skin, the color is a dead ringer. The clone has a very slight shimmer (from the Jade) that the original does not have.

1 part Green Tea Liner Shadow
Vanilla Sugar
1 part Sunshine Glimmer
1 part Blaze Liner/Shadow
2 parts Cultured Pearl Glimpse

This recipe is a joint effort between Jeri (BEFairLady) and Mary Ann (MAASMILEY). Mary Ann used the Philosophy Lift Kit scoop, but hopefully as long as you stick to 1 part "this" and 1/2 "part" that, the recipe should be the same.
1 part Heart
1 1/2 part Blue Mist
1/2 part Angel
1/2 part Halo
NARS Orgasm

I use those 2 little measuring spoons that come as a set. You can get them from WalMart - they say smidgen, pinch and dash. So I use the smallest one - smidgen.
Almost a full smidgen of Celery, a smidgen of Incense and less than a 1/4 full of the smidgen of Catwoman (you really don't need that much since it is so black). Put in jar & shake! Viola ~ Smokey Cat Eyes!
