Meow Cosmetics’ Catwalk

Meow Cosmetics’ Catwalk

Sunflower-yellow with a solid color payoff. The golden-yellows look better on me than the “lemon-yellows” - I think because of the color depth. Go too deep, though, and I start to veer into “wrong-for-my-skintone” territory! Some of Meow's Feliners are a bit fainter than others. I was concerned about a...

I wasn't sure how much use I'd get from this shade, or how sparkly it would actually be outside of the pot. My first photo is a bit blurry, but you can tell that it's sparkly as hell. The black is deep and very pigmented, but there's no sooty residue...

OPI’s Tempted by Teal

OPI’s Tempted by Teal

Posted on Wednesday, at

Very aqua-green teal - closer to the teal I remember from the 1980s than the deeper teal that's more often seen in clothing lines and makeup currently. (There goes that datestamp on my forehead again.) A metallic finish with an unfortunate bit of streakiness.

A nicer medium-deep taupe. I'm not as fond of the green duochrome shimmer as I'd hoped I would be (I ended up liking Miuccia much more) but it's a good addition nonetheless. The color applies nicely and adheres well, and doesn't fade. It provides a hint of contouring on paler...

A brighter yellow (no overt gold or tan undertones) that's not obnoxiously bright, and has excellent color payoff.

The shimmer on this one's pretty even - a bit scattered, but not super-sparse. The base color is a softish, medium-deep, slightly cool grey. The color will migrate a little faster than others, even with a primer; but it doesn't fade. I'm able to blend it very easily. This is...

Benefit Cosmetics’ Sippin’ n Dippin’ cream shadow

Benefit Cosmetics’ Sippin’ n Dippin’ cream shadow

Posted on Saturday, at

A bright peach with just a slight gold duochrome effect, along with the shimmer. Very similar to MAC's Rubenesque, but this limited edition shade's base color is just a little bit brighter than Rubenesque, and there's no hints of the very faint blue-violet duochrome that Rubenesque has. Benefit's frost cream...

A pretty enough gold-shimmer rose-tan, but it's a bit softer than I'd prefer. I don't know that I'll wear this one too much…or if I do, it'll be in some surprise combination. This shade is extremely soft. The gold shimmer and the faint rose undertones are all that kept...
