Color Club’s Cabin Fever collection

Color Club’s Cabin Fever collection

Posted on Tuesday, at

I didn’t pick up these colors until four years after the collection was released. I got some kits during a sale at Color Club’s web site, and after finding out they were from the same collection, went looking for more. (This came out the same time as China...

L’Oréal’s Infallible 24HR Eye Shadow in Golden Emerald (355)

L’Oréal’s Infallible 24HR Eye Shadow in Golden Emerald (355)

This is such a lovely, changeable color. It applies with some grey undertones, and can look more olive in some lights and depending upon which other colors are close to it. It is a near-“cream-to-powder” formula like all of these eyeshadows, so it does not mix easily with most...

This color definitely softens upon application! I was really looking forward to another rich red from Shiro (like Save The World or Corona or Daddy's Lil Monster)

My Pretty Zombie’s Myotonic highlighter

My Pretty Zombie’s Myotonic highlighter

This is sold as a highlighter, but it’s pigmented enough to work well as an eyeshadow. The main color is baby blue, and the interference effect is very visible. I do wish that this mixed better with water, though, because the foiled application has an even stronger, reddish shimmer...

I didn’t realize it when I bought this, but this is an effects topper. With four coats I can get full opacity, but it is what it looks like: red interference shimmer. The polish applies well and, because it’s essentially microglitter, takes a bit more effort to remove...

A good winter-to-spring transition shade. The color looks like it could easily have fit into Meow Cosmetics’ Glacial Grove. It has the color, but there are grey, almost frosted tones. The formula was not the best that I’ve gotten from Zoya, with an extended drying time and several thinner...

This is what I thought CND’s Powerful Hematite would be. The silver shimmer doesn’t completely take over the look, but it’s very visible. This was the “sparkle"iest polish of the Sensual collection. There’s a bit of texture to the finished mani, but that’s easily...

ColourPop’s BFF Volumizing Mascara in Kiss n’ Teal

ColourPop’s BFF Volumizing Mascara in Kiss n’ Teal

Posted on Friday, at

Another brightly-colored mascara! (And, of course, it’s been discontinued by ColourPop.) I think part of the reason this one didn’t get a whole lot of traction was that it clumps like bright blue fuck-all. Most of the brighter-colored mascaras were thicker, almost a whipped texture to help the...

Too Faced’s Unicorn Horn Highlighter Stick in Unicorn Tears

Too Faced’s Unicorn Horn Highlighter Stick in Unicorn Tears

Posted on Thursday, at

When I first saw the two colors in this collection, I was more immediately drawn to the gilded-peach shimmer. Not too much later, though, I went back and picked this one up as well. It’s a very light, very sheer blue base with scattered lavender shimmer.

Maybelline’s Color Sensational Lipstick in Midnight Merlot (790)

Maybelline’s Color Sensational Lipstick in Midnight Merlot (790)

I wanted a deeper, richer red…I got a deeper, richer red! This is extremely cool, it’s almost purple in some lights. It also does slightly stain my lips, so when I want a richer color with a little less oomph I can blot most of the color away...
