Color Club’s Without a Doubt

This almost looks black at certain angles, deep teal in other lights. The formula applied great - no streaking, no bubbles, no thin spots. This polish might even be thick enough that I could occasionally use it as a stamping polish. (Which would be wonderful, because I LOVE this shade when it looks like an ultradeep teal!)

NYX Cosmetics’ Holographic Halo Eye Tint collection

I haven’t generally been a big fan of eye shadows or primers that need a doefoot applicator…but combine low price with the word “holographic” and I’ll check it out. These don’t act holographic, in that there isn’t a rainbow-effect shimmer. There’s more of one single interference color on top of the base color, and it isn’t even always a different color. Setting that aside, they’re good for highlighting, or as bright/reflective...

Real Techniques’ Powder Brush

This brush head is softer, less dense, very thick, and slightly shaped. The handle is standard Real Techniques: metallic, medium length, and flared at the bottom so that the brush can stand on its end. I haven’t seen as many copies of this brush type as I have the Blush Brush…but possibly the markets are concentrating on counterfeits rather than dupes. (The Real Techniques Blush Brush does have a clear dupe available on Ebay, under the name “Pro...

L’Oréal’s Voluminous Butterfly Intenza Waterproof Mascara

This is my favorite of the Voluminous mascaras, with Butterfly Sculpt running a close second. I don’t feel like the wand is going to take my eye out I like the definition that I get with this mascara - the brush helps the mascara cover and then separate each lash well and evenly, while adding a little length. While I do have to do more than one single stroke to get all of my lashes, it’s because I...
