This is sort of red…but when I apply it, it leans much more purple. (For those of you who have never seen a living sand dollar, they're this color. Yep, sand dollars and some starfish are mauvey-purple.) The color lightens a bit, but doesn't lose much intensity. The shimmer...
I have zero information on when this was released or where it was available. I’m going to guess that it was yet another QVC-exclusive kit from BE’s earlier (pre-2006) years, but I could be totally wrong on that.
Another of the Get-The-Look kits that gave a slight discount when buying the eyeshadows (at the time, you saved $1 per shadow.) I like this trio, and think it will appeal more than a few of the other GTL groupings. Moss is more of a greened brown than a green, so...
This is most definitely a brighter shade. I don't know that I would personally use this as a liner too often - or at least, not by itself. If I ever figured out how to make those nice super-thin straight lines one on top of the other, I might try...
Now this is a sparkle liner I can get behind! It's a brighter violet, but not so bright that it's overpowering. The sparkle particles are very small, and the pencil applies pretty well (and once in place and set, it won't budge all day.) This shade was one of the...
When I first saw vendor photos of this blush, it looked too brown to look good on me. Once I saw it, I thought it might work as a blush, but would work as an eye color. Once I swatched it, I found that I could actually wear it as...
This ended up being more orange-ish than I thought it would be. Beauty and Darling were the two mattes from the “second-wave” release that I thought I would be most fond of, as the other colors are too dark for me to wear…almost at all. Unfortunately, I can only...
The glazed carrots are something I learned about just this past year. I have not been a huge fan of carrots, probably because they weren't prepared well or interestingly. These…I love these! I can actually taste the carrot, but don't have the feeling of chomping on a raw vegetable. ...
This is a softer color - almost faded. The pearl finish makes this a fairly obvious choice for days when I want a bit of color, but it can't be a bold or bright shade. (Usually interviews and/or client meetings. I never know whether to feel cheated or happy...
It's a pretty enough blue, softer and a bit heathered. But…it goes on so soft! This is almost semisheer, especially when comparing the applcation to what I see in the pot. I get the same results whether I pat this on dry, or sweep it on wet.
