One of the kits in the QVC diamond-infused AD series (Champagne Diamonds, Black Diamonds, this kit, and Canary Diamonds). I had bought one of the eyecolors earlier, but soon added the other two eyecolors and the blush. The feather-light mineral veil was once of some passing interest to me, but...
The coverage of this color is actually a bit better when it's applied dry. Foiling this shade didn't do good things! The shadow ended up looking a bit…clumpy. I don't know if a different adhesive or medium would have given me different results. I like the color, and as...
A softer yellow, with low color payoff. Since most of the rest of Shiro's colors have very solid pigmentation levels, and since this color's been around for a while (and wasn't outright removed when the new collection lineups were announced) I can only guess that this is intentional. It's a...
I'd been aware of Silk Naturals since…oh, about 2009, but I hadn't ordered from them until late 2010. I can't remember why, now. I think it might have been because while they had a wide range of colors, I was more interested in Aromaleigh's ultra-bright colors. Or the latest BE offers....
A nice green, very slightly softened. Looks like Christmas Trees do from afar, when they look all soft and fluffy-green and the reality of scratchy poky pine needles is 50 feet away. (Oh yeah. I'm a poet today.) The shimmer is very faint on this shade, but application is good. It's...
This color sounded a bit like Aromaleigh v1's Orinoco, which I love. It's similar…and yet not entirely. The blue sheen isn't really there, and the coverage is just a little lighter. That said, this does look good when applied wet, or over a brighter (yellow-neutral or white) base....
Not a 100% exact match for Morbid Curiosity - Nadalina is a little bit softer, and a little bit bluer - but it's fairly close. Open both pages in side-by-side browser tabs and toggle back and forth to see the swatch-montages, you'll see what I mean.
