OPI’s Mauving to Manitoba

OPI’s Mauving to Manitoba

Posted on Wednesday, at

I got this color a while ago, and forgot about it. It's gorgeous, though! It's a similar color to Tess, one of my favorite Zoyas; but Mauving to Manitoba has a slightly less metallic finish. Two coats of M2M gave me total coverage, with a clean surface (no brushstrokes...

China Glaze’s Metallic Muse

China Glaze’s Metallic Muse

Posted on Wednesday, at

This is a nice robins-egg blue. I didn't have issues with brushstrokes, which has happened with about half of my China Glaze metallic polishes (most from the Romantique collection). I did have some smudging/dragging issues the first time I did a manicure with this polish, but the next time...

Zoya’s Touch collection

Zoya’s Touch collection

Posted on Tuesday, at

This mini-collection (fewer colors than normal, not mini-bottles) is currently available for pre-order, and unlike other Zoya shades that stay in the regular lineup for a few years, this one’s marked as a limited edition…so if you’re interested, you might want to order them now. (Before all...

This color's fairly sheer, so don't get it for the base color. Get it for the iridescent sparkle and the fact that it's a good purple highlighter…when so many other highlight shades are pink, yellow, or some whiteish shade. There's just enough heft for this color to be used...

Shiro Cosmetics’ Mew

Shiro Cosmetics’ Mew

Posted on Monday, at

This color was a bit pinker than I was expecting, from the photographs. I've been looking for a good soft coral eyeshadow (I know, I'm weird), and thought that this might be it. While Mew is a nice color…it's not precisely what I was looking for. Adhesion is excellent,...

BareMinerals’ High Shine Electric

BareMinerals’ High Shine Electric

Posted on Monday, at

One of the first colors in the “regular” high shine collection. It looks like a dark teal, but it actually applies as a medium blue with hints of teal. The finish is similar applied wet or dry. Just don't use the applicator that comes with these shadows, or you'll end...
