The duochrome isn't very pronounced in this, and neither is the shimmer. What you get, instead of a hard metallic finish, is enough sparkle to add subtle depth…without flash.

EoTD: Ready for tomorrow

I am not a happy camper today. It isn't horrific; but it's just…bleah. I wouldn't mind taking three or four aspirin, curling up in a fetal ball, and waking up tomorrow. Sadly…there's the shopping to do. And prepping for my brother's visit. And feeding the cats. Stuff like...
