BareMinerals’ Flirty and Fabulous kit

BareMinerals’ Flirty and Fabulous kit

Posted on Friday, at

I was pretty topped out on BE. The summer kits didn’t look thrilling. And then this hit my radar. This price for four full-size items (three of which I don’t have, and like the looks of) and a mini prime time? (And a charm, which doesn’t interest...

BareMinerals’ Ponder kit

BareMinerals’ Ponder kit

Posted on Thursday, at

Most folks weren’t quite sure what to make of this kit, with its collection of greens. I acquired the colors separately, so didn’t buy the kit as a kit. If you liked greens, didn’t already own any of the colors, and liked the makeup bags that BE...

Wet n Wild’s Mermaid’s Cove collection

I like Wet n Wild’s Fast Dry polishes. The price combined with the quality is a hit! I just wish that they had a wider selection. (They seem to be focussing on their Insta-Dri, which are nearly $5 a bottle; or their ultra-cheap ones that are more watery and arenâ€...

Shiro Cosmetics’ For Science collection

Shiro Cosmetics’ For Science collection

Posted on Thursday, at

Note: in 2012, the lineup was changed. The new (current) collection is listed first. If you’re looking for old favorites, though, head down and view the old collection listing. Color names based on the videogame Portal. Which, based solely on some of the names, sounds a wee bit Paranoia-esque. This...

Wet n Wild’s Waves of Enchantment

Wet n Wild’s Waves of Enchantment

Posted on Wednesday, at

This color is stunning! It caught my eye because it looked like a rose-coral duochrome, when I first walked by. Then in more direct light, and at a different angle, it looked like an orange-gold duochrome with pale rose undertones. This is a rose-coral duochrome microglitter, and it's very very...

China Glaze’s Café Mystique

China Glaze’s Café Mystique

Posted on Wednesday, at

This polish was thinner than many China Glaze colors, but I really like the color! It's such a soft pale rose-nude. I don't know if I have anything close to this shade from any other polish vendor. From online photos, I expected it to be a little cooler, a little...

Zoya’s Breezi

Zoya’s Breezi

Posted on Wednesday, at

I wasn't entirely sure about any of the colors from this collection when the sneak-peek photos started circulating, but I really like Breezi. I thought it might be something like Sally Hansen's Blue Me Away - which is a pretty enough bright pale blue, but not something that I want...

BareMinerals’ Gingersnap lipstick

BareMinerals’ Gingersnap lipstick

Posted on Tuesday, at

I originally had some problems wearing this color, because while it didn't look bad…it wasn't something that I'd reach for often. (I picked this up off of Ebay for about $6, so I wasn't paying retail price and was a little more inclined to try something from outside my comfort...
