Sally Hansen’s Pink Punk (165)

I have more than a few colors that are similar to this one…but the color looks good on me, so it’s not as if they’ll all sit unused and unloved. If you’re in a hurry, this CAN be a one-coat polish. The coverage is good, it...

Sleek Makeup’s Goodnight Sweetheart i-Divine palette

Another review from last year’s palette!! It’s still available for purchase, though - unlike the On The Horizon, which has consistently shown as Out Of Stock for months now. It’s a good “neutrals” palette - not just brown shadows, but silver grey red cream and some browns....

Shiro Cosmetics’ Completely Meat Circle

Muted orange-red, or muted red-orange? Depends on what you pair it with, and the lighting. It looks more like a reddish autumnal orange to me. It blends fairly well, and applies easily…and as of today, it’s still in stock (though not too many jars left.)

Femme Fatale Cosmetics’ Six Ice Creams Each

This makes a nice near-neutral shade when applied dry. When I want the shimmer to remain more prominent, I get the best effects if I use a sticky base (like Fyrinnae’s Pixie Epoxy or NYX’s Glitter Glue). Applied dry, there’s some of the gold shimmer to act...

Is anybody out there…? Expanding the reading list

My reading list has thinned a little…and since the blogging community has changed so much, I can’t really find new blogs like I used to. There’s a hell of a lot more sleuthing that I need to do. ...help…? I’m looking for beauty blogs that are...

Urban Decay’s Vice lipstick in Backtalk

I have quite a few lip colors of this shade. (I don’t consciously look for them…it’s just the color that always jumps out at me.) Budget-wise and collection-wise, I could have done without buying this. On the other hand…it does cover very well, doesn’t feather,...

Persephone Minerals’ Moon Crystal Power

Shiro Cosmetics’ Heart Attack

I will grab any burgundy eye…anything. Liner, shadow, mascara - if it’s burgundy, I either have it or I want it. This is a bit on the warmer side, but it’s still burgundy! It’s been discontinued (along with the rest off this collection) but I had...

Color Club’s Burnt Out

I have tried other warm-spectrum colorshift polishes, but the shift is usually nonexistent or fairly minimal. This shift is the most visible that I’ve ever tried. I managed to get a few bottles before it was gone-for-good; and according to Color Club, these polishes were small batches that would...

Meow Cosmetics’ Urban Legends collection

I was a little leery of this collection when it came out. The Friday the 13th collection is also billed as “metallic duochromes” and while some of them are duotone or duochrome…most aren’t. I bought two shades full-size and a sample set. After sampling the colors, I decided...
