So many Lippie Stix colors rotate in and out of the lineup…but this is one of the earliest colors I remember, and while it goes out of stock, it always comes back. It’s a deep red that, if it has cool tones, they’re faint - so people...
Despite the vendor art that makes this look like a blue-green, this is more of a saturated medium turquoise. The formula is just a touch on the thicker side - it self-levels, but it takes a bit longer to cure, so it’s really easy for the second coat to...
A soft but not bright pastel purple that could look very joyfully elegant…if it didn’t have such a thin and watery formula. Two coats gave me spotty coverage that was opaque in some places, a whisper of color in others, and emphasized the texture of my nails. I’...
This kit contains 45 matte shadows in a rainbow of shades, mostly more saturated shades with a few brighter shades. There are a few soft shades, and a handful of neutrals, as well as some deeper, almost-autumnal colors. It’s a good complement, shade-wise, to both Dream Big and Large It...
The 2019 colors for the Fantasy Makers Brights palette. In previous years, the Brights palette was primarily…well, primary colors. Starting in 2019, it was three colors with a medium-light and a deeper version of each. The navy blue and the fuchsia-pink came forward from the previous version; the purples are new....
Three eyeshadow brushes with silver glitter over black paint on the handles, blue metal ferrules, and synthetic bristles. The brushes cover most needs for eyeshadow: one crease brush, one smudge brush, and one all-over / blender brush. I don’t like this kit as much as the other two - I...
This color does apply lighter than in the pot - but it’s a question of luminosity rather than saturation. It’s not as dark a blue as it appears, but it’s definitely a saturated shade. This is an unblended colorant, and yes, it is eye-safe. You may want...
A brown-blue duotone shade with a less deep and warmer brown than many others (like MAC’s Blue Brown). Several companies have done versions of this eyeshadow with varying results. Applied dry, the aqua-blue shimmer remains fairly strong; when applied wet, the base shade shows through far more. The base...
An interesting muted-but-not-dusty purple. I occasionally see colors like this come out, but people usually release either bolder or clearer purples and violets. This formula didn’t self-level very well, though. Two coats and you can see streaks and thin spots on just about every nail. I don’t know...
