CND’s Vinylux Grace (301)

CND’s Vinylux Grace (301)

I have at least one brown with more red sparkle, but not quite as much silver as this polish. It is a little more work to remove, like any glitter or high-sparkle polish; but it applies very easily and looks lovely.

Color Club’s Oceanside kit

Color Club’s Oceanside kit

Posted on Tuesday, at

I hadn’t really paid attention to Color Club’s 7-piece kits, but they’re a fairly good deal if you don’t already own more than one of the polishes. Oceanside has several green polishes and a few blues. There are a few lighter colors, but most are medium-saturation...

Notoriously Morbid’s Doll’s Eye

Notoriously Morbid’s Doll’s Eye

Posted on Monday, at

Another deeper brown that leans purple! I’m fond of cooler browns, but I tend to gravitate toward these raisin-toned browns. This is almost - ALMOST - a warmer purple-brown. The downside about this eyeshadow is the whitish finish. It shows up on most of the Notoriously Morbid mattes, not...

This looks like a Mississippi-mud brown in the pot, and the dry application shows the rich base color; but there’s some odd white…stuff…that adds a layer on top of the applied shadow. It softens the base color, and it can’t be buffed away.

Emily de Molly’s Ill Fated

Emily de Molly’s Ill Fated

Posted on Sunday, at

I was interested in a red-to-black thermal, and I found this one from Emily de Molly. I am less fond of the mylar sparkle particles, but they’re not thick enough to negatively impact the finished texture.

Emily de Molly’s Silk and Denim

Emily de Molly’s Silk and Denim

Posted on Saturday, at

A very pretty softer thermal with a sharply differentiated thermal reaction. The polish really does need at least three coats for full color intensity. The thermal color changes shows up fine with two coats, but I prefer it with three. There are scattered silver larger glitter particles that add visual...

Nyx Cosmetics’ Suede Matte Lipstick in Smudge Me

Nyx Cosmetics’ Suede Matte Lipstick in Smudge Me

Posted on Saturday, at

This is just a bit darker than it appears in the vendor photos. It’s a teal-leaning navy matte. Since it’s a color that fairer humans don’t normally have on their lips unless something is medically wrong or artificial, the inner lip area where lipstick won’t take...

NYX Cosmetics’ Slide On Eye Pencil in Pretty Violet

NYX Cosmetics’ Slide On Eye Pencil in Pretty Violet

Posted on Friday, at

This is very close to the glowy purple eyeliner that used to be available from Wet n Wild. I used that eyeliner all through high school and into college, when I stopped being able to find it. This eyeliner can turn to a darker purple if the liner builds up,...

Milani Cosmetics’ Hypnotic Lights Powder Highlighter in Luminous Light

Milani Cosmetics’ Hypnotic Lights Powder Highlighter in Luminous Light

Posted on Thursday, at

This is more of a “pink interference” highlighter with only a very soft base shade. It does have a whitish cast, so that’s a factor if your skintone is deeper than medium-fair. I think this is my least-favorite highlighter of the collection. It’s mostly because of the color,...

ColourPop’s Lippie Stix in Sky Walking

ColourPop’s Lippie Stix in Sky Walking

Posted on Thursday, at

This red is a little bit brighter than I thought it would be - it’s not an overtly warm red, but it’s brighter and it’s fairly non-cool. I need to be careful what other colors I wear this one with so that it doesn’t subtly clash...
