Meow Cosmetics’ Paranormal

NYX Cosmetics’ Wine Black Label Lipstick (113)

I was a little concerned that this color might be too dark; but I like it. It's a softer mauved red, a bit like Adore. The color applies well and lasts. I actually like Raspberry more, in terms of color shades; but I like Wine much more than I thought...

NYX Cosmetics’ Wine Black Label Lipstick (113)

Aromaleigh v2’s Celine

I initially didn't know that this particular color would do too much for me. It's turned out to be one of the colors I use the most! The gold color is almost a little dark, but if I use a light hand or apply it over a light base, the...

Fyrinnae’s Shinigami

A really gorgeous dark violet color with indigo sparkle. The color really does look best wet - applied dry over primer, you see a bit of the blackened purple, but almost none of the sparkle finish. I do kind of like that the color has two distinct “personalities”, though -...

Aromaleigh v2’s Primevère

I think that I have similar shades, but nothing that's exactly like this. Define Beauty, one of my favorite neutrals from The SheSpace, is awfully close! I can't lay my hands on my single sample baggie of Infernal Chaos, or I'd compare it to that just to see if it's...

OPI’s Eiffel For This Color

I picked this one up because I wanted a darker purple creme that showed more of the purple than the blackening. Zoya has some dark purples, but they're either matte (the now-discontinued Savita) or so dark that they might as well be black. This color is a good deep purple...

OPI’s Done Out in Deco

About half the blog reviews I found on this shade seemed pretty lukewarm on it. They didn't love the color, it didn't seem to fit with the rest of the collection, something. It's a brighter purple creme, and it's a fairly straightforward color. It's also one of the few cool...

OPI’s It’s Totally Fort Worth It

A nice enough color…but not quite what I expected. There looked to be faint hints of purple duochrome in the bottle, but either it was a trick of the lighting, or the duochrome didn't translate from bottle to nail. (That has happened with a few other colors…) You can...

Aromaleigh v2’s Bloom collection

A palette of softer shades and neutrals, in shimmer, frost, and pearl finishes. This is the second of Aromaleigh v2’s stock eyeshadow collections. If you prefer brighter colors or bolder shades, you should still remember this collection - because every once in a while, you want a blending shade...
