Aromaleigh v2.1’s Sol Invictus

This color really looks good on me. This collection was not reformulated in 2014/2015, so the colors still mixed easily with water. (At least, they did when I bought them.)

Shiro Cosmetics’ Forever A-Loan

I like this shade! I don't know that I have any greens of exactly this luminosity and shade, so it's nice to have something that's unique to my collection. I'm not so wild about its wet application, though - it was a little on the patchier side.

Aromaleigh v2.1’s Anthousai collection

There are some very attractive shades in this collection. They’re springy without being completely pale pastel - Anemone is definitely not a pastel shade! They’re not quite as hydrophobic as other Aromaleigh shadows, but I just don’t know that I’ll be getting any of these in...

BareMinerals’ Earth Angel kit

These coordinate fairly well - it’s a change from so many of the other BE “brown + something” looks. Shortly before this kit’s release, Halo - which had been in the BE store available for individual purchase - was pulled from the main lineup. Now, 7 years later, Halo is...
