Aromaleigh v2.1’s Matte Saga Three collection

The third volume of the Matte Sagas is the brighter, clearer pastels. About half of the colors are neutrals or near-neutrals, and I don’t know if they’d appear chalky on deeper skintones or not, but I think that Frimia (pale daffodil-yellow) and possibly Kara (ballet-pink) look very clear...

Zoya’s Sensual collection

I was mildly - only mildly - interested in this collection. The cool shades looked interesting, and I was very keen on getting Ashton (the only one I haven’t had a chance to swatch yet!!), but there were a lot of reds and pinks. And then, Zoya had a...

L’Oréal’s Infallible 24HR Eye Shadow in Gleaming Bronze (408)

Because of the name, I thought this would be…well…more bronze. There aren’t really warm tones in this. I personally think it’s an attractive color, a good “pseudo-neutral”, though people with very strong undertones (either gold or pink or olive) may be less happy with how well...

TKB Trading’s Manganese Violet

This is a deeper version of “Easter-candy” purple. It doesn’t lean quite as red as it looks in the pot. It’s fairly close to a neutral purple. The texture and lack of binders in this colorant means that while it can be used as a color cosmetic, you’...

Sigil Inspired’s Accepting Star Bath

L’Oréal’s Infallible Paints Eyeliner in Wild Green

I didn’t realize how much I’d love this eyeliner when I got it! I thought it would be a deeper green, but not as dark as it is! It’s a lovely deep green that leans just barely blue, but there’s no blackening. The coverage is great!...

NYX Cosmetics’ Duo Chromatic Illuminating Powder in Synthetica

LA Colors’ Voodoo

I love the color of this polish! It’s a rich tropical green with blue shimmer, and it self-levels very well. The downside is that this polish requires four coats to get to this level of coverage…and I still get pretty strong VNL.

CND’s Vinylux Exquisite (308)

Wet n Wild’s Fantasy Makers Paint Palette: Neutrals

I picked this up last year, but it’s taken me a while to publish my review. The colors had been the same for about four years: three skintone-shades, and then zombie-green, blood-red, and ghoul-grey. (My color names, not Wet n Wild’s.) The colors apply fairly well, though they...
