I was so excited when I first saw a few scattered promo pics about this! An entire collection of duochromes! I had trouble finding a release date, and finally took to China Glaze’s Facebook page to ask them flat out: so when will we be seeing these? The polishes...
I liked about 3/4 of the colors released by Fyrinnae this year. The summer releases were a bit too bright-looking for my preferences, and were described as being semisheer or better as color washes, so I tend to wear those over dark cream-shadow bases to enhance the color.
Nice enough white with decent pigmentation and even coverage. This color is very similar to Meow Cosmetics' Bubble Bath, but Snowglobe is just a tiny bit brighter. Wet application was a little bit uneven, but I think that could be improved by using a little more water (or whatever mixing...
Like many Grand collections, I skipped buying the entire kit and bought the color pieces off of Ebay. I was just about ready to buy one of these kits at full price because I really wanted to get ahold of the liner shade, which was exclusive to this kit -...
Usually, I’m attracted to kits for the eye and cheek colors, and I’ll often pick those up on Ebay This is one of those rarities: a kit where I was primarily interested in the lip color and the brushes. (And because it was on sale. And because I...
Cool fuchsia that's not quite sheer…but does lose some of its heft when applied, as opposed to in the pot. (Not much. Just enough to be noticeable.) There's hints of bronze and gold shimmer, but the fuchsia-pink is the predominant color.
Soft cool white with light-blue hexagonal glitter. The pictures are VERY close-up, so you can see the shape of the glitter, and see that they're not just tiny bits of blue pigment mixed in (like Unicorn Pee.) The glitter doesn't have sharp edges, but the pieces are a bit large....
Just slightly cool, this white looks like…oh, like cement in the shade. It isn't the grey-white of cement, it's just a bit cooler than that. There's a very faint shimmer to this - almost like a softer version of the softened-metallic finish that most of the other Castaway shades...
If my description of the color sounds confused…that's because there's a lot going on with this color! The main color appears to be a pale bronze-gold with green reflective lights, that shades toward rose-bronze at the edges. The texture is a slightly roughened metallic shimmer. The roughening adds a...
This color is a bit clearer than Suvi, a little brighter, but it's still a very rich deep forest green. I don't know if this was the formula, or if it was just my technique with this manicure, but there are faint suggestions of visible brushstrokes. This is another shade...
