Color Club’s We’re Rooting For You

Color Club’s We’re Rooting For You

Posted on Sunday, at

This is a deep warm purple, almost a deep cool red. It’s not nearly as dusty or heathered as the vendor art makes it look. (Can I just take a quick dozen seconds to gripe about how much I HATE Color Club’s bottle-artwork that’s very blatantly graphic...

Color Club’s Yes Of Quartz

Color Club’s Yes Of Quartz

Posted on Saturday, at

You wouldn’t think it, to look at this polish in the bottle; but it’s not just a “white glitter.” The opalescent effect shows pink, purple, blue, green, or gold depending on the light angle. The glitter is in some white-ish looking base, and it applies well enough, but...

This pink has very subtle buff undertones. It looks like a milky pink in the bottle, but it applies a bit darker. The polish is just a little on the thicker side, hanging onto faint brushstrokes. I’m not necessarily a light-pink fan, so I don’t know that this...

Maybelline’s Full n Soft Waterproof Mascara

Maybelline’s Full n Soft Waterproof Mascara

Posted on Friday, at

This mascara does provide good definition, it coats my lashes well, there’s only the tiniest amount of clumping, and there’s some transfer, but not a lot. I don’t know if the “Full” portion of the name should have meant that there was some volume, because…there’s...

ColourPop’s Lip Crayon in Chimichanga

ColourPop’s Lip Crayon in Chimichanga

Posted on Thursday, at

The brighter of the two colors in the Gimme A Slice kit. This is fairly standard for these Lip Crayons: the color payoff is pretty good, though there can be some thinner spots. The application is very easy, though I did need to go back over some areas. All of...

ColourPop’s Lux Lipstick in Belle

ColourPop’s Lux Lipstick in Belle

Posted on Thursday, at

This color leans just barely warm. It’s not quite warm enough to not work with my cool-neutral undertones, but I do have to be a little more aware of what other colors I have on when I plan to wear this shade. It has the standard ColourPop Lux Lipstick...

Color Club’s I’m Outta Here

Color Club’s I’m Outta Here

Posted on Wednesday, at

The color is nice - it’s right at the bluest edge of aqua, but it’s not quite blue enough to be turquoise. It’s bright, almost neon, but not quite. The one and only downside - which may be contained to the batch in the bottle that I...

Sally Hansen’s Dabbler (449)

Sally Hansen’s Dabbler (449)

The polish looks slightly darker, slightly richer, when it’s on my nails. It’s a lovely shade! Unfortunately, the bottle that I got is very streaky. I doubt that a third coat would have saved this manicure. Maybe a little bit of nail polish thinner will help even it...

Makeup Revolution’s Forever Flawless Optimum palette

Makeup Revolution’s Forever Flawless Optimum palette

Posted on Tuesday, at

I chose to get this palette because, in the photos (from the vendor and from other users), the overall color story looked interesting. Some deeper colors, a good array of medium and lighter shades, mostly warmer shades with a nice mix of cooler tones as accents or visual counterbalances. The...

Makeup Revolution’s Forever Flawless Unconditional Love palette

Makeup Revolution’s Forever Flawless Unconditional Love palette

Posted on Tuesday, at

This is very “valentine”-colored: pinks and corals, all shades of chocolate, purples, reds, and pale creams. I originally wasn’t interested in what I perceived as “a pink palette” but as it turns out, I enjoy this much more than I thought I would. It does have a lot...
