I had sampled this color in 2009. While it was a nice cooler purple, it didn't make me urgently need to have it in my collection. Then in 2010, the color was remixed. While it's still definitely, unequivocably purple, there's a little more blue in the color now. The shadow seems to...

If this looks similar to you, you've probably seen the TKB Trading's Capricorn Sea mica. The manufacturer of this color even described this as similar to that mica…but a little more green. It's also more pigmented than Capricorn Sea…being an actual shadow, and not just colored mica. (I...
Interesting composition for a “garden party” look. I would have included a softish pink, or possibly a yellow with a tiny bit more heft to it. I like Chicory and Girlfriend Kathleen…just not together. Lemonade has always been a bit of a “bust” color for me. It’s just...
I was able to find a bottle of this for sale through Amazon, and bought it (yes, it was over $15; no it was not over $25.) I think I see why China Glaze didn't continue this color forward when they brought out the OMG and Tronica collections: with one coat it...

In a collection of purples and reds, this one stood out. Most warm browns don't look so great on me, but this one works. (Possibly because it appears to have more red/pink tones in it, to add the warmth, than yellow tones - which is how brown eyeshadows are...

This was one of the few colors from the Winter Spirits collection that tempted me. (It was one of the few non-purples - granted, it's a mauve-red, but it's not a purple-red. Nor a red-purple.)
