Morgana Cryptoria’s 11th Hour lip balm

Despite this color being -=very=- purple, it looks really good on me (cool undertones) and looks like more of a deep cool pink, than a true “purple”. Application is very smooth, the consistency is good, and this color tends to stay in place with minimal need for touch-ups.

Revlon’s Plum Colorburst Lipstick

This is another shade that looks surprisingly good on me! So many of the deeper reds don't appeal to me because they're so warm. This is most definitely a cooler shade, not completely purple-red, but not a “warm” red at all. I apply mine and blot, and it doesn't apply...

NYX Cosmetics’ Salmon Pearl Diamond Sparkle Lipstick

I didn't know if this color would be too orange or not, with the “salmon” in its name, but the few online swatches I was able to find looked good. The color does work very well for me! Sadly (or perhaps just “annoyingly”) the sparkle makes the lipstick feel a...

LaurEss’ Sorceress

The color is pretty…unfortunately, I can't seem to get the color to show up very much. Most of what I see is the blackening, with a slight overlay of the blue-green shimmer (even when applied wet.) If this had more of the colorants, I imagine this would be a...

Concrete Minerals’ Kismet

A very nice cool medium-deep pink which isn't nearly as fuchsia as it looks on Concrete Minerals' web site. There's a very faint gold shimmer in this color, but it's faint enough that this shade can be used as a blush with no problems. According to the manufacturers' web site,...

NYX Cosmetics’ Queen Chrome

This applies…well, not “pale”, necessarily. It's a very light color, could work as an all-over shade if you want something neutral with a little extra shimmer. Use as a highlighter might require a very light touch, or good blending skills (or both.) This is a light color, not a...

Concrete Minerals’ Lovey Dovey

Nice pink-almost-red shade that really looks good with blue eyes. You could also describe this as “soft fuchsia-rose.” It works well as a blush, if you use a very light hand and a very soft applicator.

Concrete Minerals’ Vegas

Concrete Minerals’ White Rabbit

Not -=quite=- straight white, though that may be how it looks. There's a very faint pink iridescence to this shade which really isn't visible in the pot - but it's there. I think this shade could work as a highlighter if you apply it softly enough. It's got...

Concrete Minerals’ Daydream

This color is right on the border between “light” and “pastel” - it definitely looks lighter when foiled, because of the near-metallic finish. The pigmentation is decent, but it is a tiny bit softer than the color appears in the pot.
