I'm seeing more red than purple in this color…but I guess that's me focussing on the glitter, which is red. The base color is a reddish-purple…or a purplish-red, depending on lighting and individual perception.
I love that CND has a few foils in the Vinylux lineup. (The first one that I tried was Chiffon Twirl. Which was also, coincidentally, the first Vinylux polish that I used.) The coverage is solid, and they’re the most durable polishes I’ve worn. Silver foils aren’t...
I’m not sure how long this palette has been available, but I don’t know that they were giving the colors names when it first came out. I do remember talking with Sirvinya (my supplier-of-all-things-Sleek) about the Good Girl and Bad Girl palettes (which were both out at the...
The second kit by this name…and released just three years after the first “Charmed” kit. (Someone at BEHQ was not paying attention…) This Charmed kit was almost a typical QVC-style “grand” kit…minus the foundation. It also cost about half of what typical QVC “grand” kits cost…and all...
The finish on this one is almost - but not quite - metallic. It's similar to Aromaleigh's Eos, but the brown base color is a bit deeper and a smidge more neutral.
Softened watermelon-pink base color…that, when applied as an eyeshadow, is almost overwritten by the lilac-blue interference layer. The base color is lovely! I just kind of wish that it was allowed to show through a bit more. I haven't tried applying this as a blush, so I don't know...
Definitely a kit that I would only have been interested in getting the color-pieces for, as I am not a huge fan of BE’s foundation and their brushes are a bit like elf’s, at least for me: a few hits, many more “can take or leave”, a good...
I picked up all four of these eyeshadows separately. I think that the non-eyeliner colors were possibly chosen because the names are a bit of a theme. However, they do coordinate decently well in trios (I can’t get all four to look good together unless I use Trust as...
This pencil has an almost-iridescent finish to it that leans just a tiny bit blue. Good for adding a hint of color to your lids, with just a little bit extra - the blue “near duotone” finish. The color is similar to Flashy Mauve, one of my absolute favorites from...
Not the green I was expecting - I thought this might be just a little deeper. It provides some definition, and applies very easily. The color stays in place very well once the pencil sets. It's somewhat similar to other pencils in other lines, but not a 100% dupe - just...
