Milani’s Shadow Eyez pencil in Sand Dune

Pale, and a wee bit patchy. This is more of an “effect” liner than anything else. I can imagine wearing it the same ways I'd wear highlighter eyeshadow, and getting some good results. Just be aware that if you want to wear it beside your eye, on the browbone, et cetera, you'll want to use a primer and possibly a light bit of makeup fixative spray. Milani's pencils are great, but - like most eye pencils I have - they...

Stila’s Waterproof Smudge Stick in Silver Dollar

One of the better metallic-silver eyeliners I've seen. The metallic-silvers from Urban Decay have an unfortunate tendency to clump up. Sand Dollar applies nicely and stays put. The brighter metallic doesn't look quite as attractive smudged out, but it will smudge if you want to give that a go.

BareMinerals’ Celebrity

This is either a muted patinaed gold or a gilded cool tan - depending on lighting and surrounding shades. It's a tiny bit of a chameleon. Not a duotone, just a color that can easily move between predominantly this or that base tone.

Femme Fatale Cosmetics’ Ribbon Dance blush

Formerly called “Exotic”

CoverGirl’s Lip Perfection in Verve (370)

I think this might have been an Atlanta-trip purchase. It's available in stores near me, sure…but I don't often look at CoverGirl lipsticks for some reason. (I think it's the price point.) This cooler, slightly mauved-out pink is really a great color on me. The frost finish is a softer frost, and doesn't obscure the color the way some frost finishes can. I can get a few hours' wear out of this shade before I need to retouch.

BareMinerals’ Cosmic

Sleek Makeup’s So Sleek

BareMinerals’ Bermuda

A 1:1 mixture of Denim and Oz. (I wasn't able to get ahold of more than one .01 oz jar of this color, so I mixed up some more. It looks exactly the same as the “official” Bermuda that came from BE's factory.)

BareMinerals’ Moonlit

Sally Hansen’s Pink A Card (350)

One of the original-lineup shades. This is a little deeper pink than At First Blush, and just a tiny bit cooler.
