My Pretty Zombie’s C’mon Doll Boy, Dance!

My Pretty Zombie’s C’mon Doll Boy, Dance!

Posted on Thursday, at

Bright blue with a slightly deeper purple-blue base. I have a few eyeshadows that are similar, but no exact matches. (A lot more have a stronger base, or the blue isn’t as bright.)

Zoya’s April

Zoya’s April

Posted on Wednesday, at

This shade was…such a disappointment. I was hoping for another good solid neutral, but slightly brighter. Instead I got a near-bright neutral that was barely opaque after three coats. It was also very uneven, and didn’t self-level worth a damn. I don’t know if I got a...

Color Club’s Oil Slick collection

Color Club’s Oil Slick collection

Posted on Tuesday, at

When this collection first came out, I was not interested. I had multichrome colors that were EXTREMELY similar to the press photos that I saw, and I wasn’t about to plunk down another USD$10 per bottle for these shades. Recently, though, I picked up a bottle of Cash Only…...

Shiro Cosmetics’ District Thirteen

Shiro Cosmetics’ District Thirteen

Posted on Monday, at

As Shiro was down to the final bits of their Tributes (Hunger Games) collection, they mixed the remaining colors together to get District Thirteen. The color is really interesting! It’s nominally a medium cool brown, but applied dry and blended out I see more of a softened brown-mossy green....

My Pretty Zombie’s Revenge is Sweet

My Pretty Zombie’s Revenge is Sweet

Posted on Monday, at

My least-favorite shade in the Dolly Deadly collection…and that, only because I like the other shades so much more, not because I don’t like this one. The one detractant from this color was that it spread a little unevenly; but that’s easy enough to fix. It doesn’...

Urban Decay’s Vice lipstick in Asphyxia

Urban Decay’s Vice lipstick in Asphyxia

Posted on Friday, at

One of the first eyeliners I fell in love with was this shade of sterno-purple. I was thrilled when I found this same shade in other lines, including Urban Decay. I had to grab at least two tubes of this when it was released as part of Urban Decay’s 2...

Shiro Cosmetics’ Play Baseball with a Weed Whacker

Shiro Cosmetics’ Play Baseball with a Weed Whacker

Posted on Thursday, at

It looks like it might be a shimmer finish…but, no. There are some blue and purple color-flecks, and a hint of refraction at certain angles, but overall, this is a deeper evergreen shadow with a satin finish. Good as a darker accent shade, can work as a non-black liner...

Shiro Cosmetics’ Umbra

Shiro Cosmetics’ Umbra

Posted on Thursday, at

The second of two colors of the month, created and named for the total solar eclipse happening in August 2017. Of the two shadows, Umbra has more overt, discernable sparkle…which is a little ironic, since the umbra is the shadow of the eclipse Umbra looks a little similar to other...

Zoya’s Azalea

Zoya’s Azalea

Posted on Wednesday, at

I love this shade, I love the finish! The only downside was that it’s a bit less opaque than I’d love. It took three coats to get a solid-color manicure. I don’t know if this is a sparkle finish or a microglass fleck; either way, if you...

My Pretty Zombie’s Dolly Deadly collection

My Pretty Zombie’s Dolly Deadly collection

Posted on Tuesday, at

I’m always interested in new collections from My Pretty Zombie! In contrast to the most recent collections, these are shimmer-finish shadows in brighter, more saturated colors. I didn’t have to work hard to build these up, nor even apply them in the first place! They’re a little...
