Sigil Inspired’s Talking with Maple

This is Nails Inc’s Straight to my Head in eyeshadow form. Seriously! The base color is a light, barely-warm brown, and there’s a strong gold interference effect. It’s a little softer than TKB Trading’s Cinnamon Sugar, but in terms of shade and finish it’s extremely similar. (It’s similar enough that if you have one, you don’t need the other.)

CoverGirl’s LashBlast Bloom Waterproof Mascara

Sigil Inspired’s Adept of Bliss

The base shade for this color can look more cool pink or more rosy lilac depending on the lighting. It can also look almost taupe. The interference isn’t as visible on this color as other shades, unless it’s applied wet and over a larger area (like the entire lid.)
