Lost in Makeupland’s Xian-pu

Lost in Makeupland’s Xian-pu

Posted on Thursday, at

When applied, this color lost a bit of the intensity I saw in the pot. I was expecting something pretty saturated, but I got a “faded-denim” vibe instead. Which isn’t necessarily bad…unless the color seen in the pot, that near-neon purple-blue, is what people really wanted.

Polish Me Silly’s Truth or Dare

Polish Me Silly’s Truth or Dare

Posted on Wednesday, at

I kind of wish that Truth or Dare had slightly more of a visible color-morph/multichrome effect than it does…but I can always see at least two colors on any of my nails, regardless of the light angle, so it’s more colorful than some multichrome polishes in my...

BareMinerals’ Buxom Lipgloss Roulette

BareMinerals’ Buxom Lipgloss Roulette

Posted on Tuesday, at

This kit was a great way to either get a bunch of mini Buxoms for yourself, or to get and use as several stocking stuffers. This was released the holiday after the lineup revamp, so even if you’d eagerly bought every lip polish and lip cream available before late...

The base shade might be found in many other eyeshadow palettes…but without the faint green satin/pearl finish. I love wearing this as an “everyday”/work-safe non-neutral. I’m just sorry that it’s been discontinued!

A very pretty color!...with less-than-great color payoff. The wet application looks fairly even, but the dry application was a bit patchy.

Posted on Sunday, at

This year, I did not do the Beauty Blog Advent Calendar. I will host it again next year; but this year, there was just too much going on. This autumn I broke my ankle, moved into a new house, visited my mom after she went into the hospital with a...

ColourPop’s Crème Gel Liner in Overboard

ColourPop’s Crème Gel Liner in Overboard

Posted on Saturday, at

Gorgeous, smooth-applying, well pigmented…this is one of my favorite eyeliners from ColourPop. (BrewHaHa is one of my others, because I’m a sucker for blackened browns.) I think this was added to the lineup after the original launch of the Creme Gel Liner Sticks.

BareMinerals’ Velvet Peach blush

BareMinerals’ Velvet Peach blush

Posted on Friday, at

A softer melon-peach with pink tones. I don’t know how this would show up on deeper skintones, and it may not look great on olive skin or very golden skin. If you have neutral or cooler undertones, this will probably look very good, though very subtle.

Meow Cosmetics’ Copycat

Meow Cosmetics’ Copycat

Posted on Thursday, at

This is such a gorgeous color! I just wish that it had more color payoff. As it stands, it could use a bit of reformulating. The wet application definitely shows the color better, but even the wet application wants to be a little bit patchy.
