Stila’s Waterproof Smudge Stick in Emerald

Stila’s Waterproof Smudge Stick in Emerald

Posted on Saturday, at

One of the three limited-edition shades in Stila's Color Outside the Lines kit. This is a brighter emerald, not super-bright but close. It applies very well, without skipping or clumping up. It isn't perhaps the very best color of green to use with my eyes, but I use it anyway...

Using unblended mica as makeup

Using unblended mica as makeup

Posted on Saturday, at

You may have seen people using mica in some really amazing makeup looks…but if you’ve tried it yourself, you may have run into some problems. The color doesn’t adhere well – it doesn’t apply smoothly – it isn’t opaque – maybe you even experienced some irritation. None of...

Meow Cosmetics’ Deity glow powder

Meow Cosmetics’ Deity glow powder

Posted on Friday, at

A very soft color, similar to TKB's Reflection. I think I'll get best use out of this glow powder to cool down or mute blushes that are just a bit too deep, or a little too orange (at least for that day.) It doesn't really change much when layered, other...

Revlon’s Colorburst Matte Balm in Elusive (205)

Revlon’s Colorburst Matte Balm in Elusive (205)

Posted on Friday, at

I wanted this shade the instant I saw the first promo pictures! A slightly more summery pink that manages not to be neon-bright? Definitely going in my collection! I don't know that I have any colors exactly like this one - I have more fuchsia-pinks, and some (a very few)...

BareMinerals’ Blue Black

BareMinerals’ Blue Black

Posted on Thursday, at

I think this may have been one of BE's earlier-release colors. It was unavailable for quite a while, then briefly available in a few kits in 2010/2011. It's a blackened navy matte eyeliner with fairly good coverage and adhesion - but, like so many BE shadows, it works far better when...

Fyrinnae’s Arcane Magic: Bride of Frankenstein

Fyrinnae’s Arcane Magic: Bride of Frankenstein

Posted on Thursday, at

A medium sapphire sparkle that shifts to a medium-deep blue-green. This color was removed from Fyrinnae's inventory fairly quickly - I think it lasted about a year - before being pulled.

Fyrinnae’s Arcane Magic: Electric Stardust

Fyrinnae’s Arcane Magic: Electric Stardust

Posted on Thursday, at

I can almost remember when this was added to Fyrinnae's lineup - I think it was in 2010. I wasn't yet buying from Fyrinnae much, but had stalked the site quite a bit. Electric Stardust was described (and shown) as changing from a light green to a light blue, at certain...

Color Club’s Holy Chic!

Color Club’s Holy Chic!

Posted on Wednesday, at

I love this shade! It’s great for spring, but while I’ve seen lots of softer pastel purples from various companies, I haven’t seen many (or any?) that are this precise shade. The formula was good - this was one of the stronger performers from the Paris in...
