I love MAC's paint pots, I really do. I get enormous weartimes out of them, they apply easily (except for the frost-finish ones, which seems to be a near-universal problem with cream shadows) and for a while there MAC was regularly releasing some amazing shades. I didn't get colors like...
In terms of pencil color, this isn't my favorite. Not because it isn't a good shade on me, but because…basic. Basic, basic, basic. Give me blues or purple-greys or greens. Or orange-browns, sandy browns, dark browns…not “cardboard” or “hot cocoa” browns. The pencil quality is good, wear time...
Applies nicely enough, but a bit unevenly. It isn't quite as patchy as some of the metallic eyeliner pencils I've tried, and it's got better color payoff than some glitter liner pencils I've tried. The glitter is almost more of a microglitter - you get a more granular “shimmer” effect,...
This is just barely a rose-pink…but it's also very light, very sheer. It's great for very fair skin with neutral or cool undertones (or warm, but barely warm). If you have deeper skintones, I would avoid this blush altogether as I don't know that it would show up at...
I've had this one for long enough that I can't remember when I got it. (Sometime in the past three years, I know that much.) It was part of the High Shine colorsensationals, and was limited edition. It's a nice enough shade on me, not as high a shine as...
I can't find the name of the kit when this color was originally released; but I think it was in 2011 or 2012. It was available in this year's Big Top kit, which wasn't a fantastic deal for folks who had been loose-powder BE collectors for some time…but for people who...
I wanted this color as soon as I saw it. It looked like a muted version of Zoya's Edyta, a polish that I absolutely love. Yuna is more like the counterpart to Edyta: more grey than green, not quite as much duochrome action but some, and also a microglitter polish...
Pretty color…but sadly, the finish is a bit streaky. (Sometimes I can get away with wearing two coats, most times I have to wear three just to be sure that my mani is completely opaque.)
