Sally Hansen Hard as Nails in Onyx Rock

This review is on Sally Hansen Hard as Nails in Onyx Rock.  Onyx Rock is a very opaque color from the beginning.  I applied 2 coats just to make sure it was all even and matching.  I could have easily gotten by with one.  The formula is perfect it was very easy to work with.  It wasn't streaky and it didn't run.  Its a dark grayish black color with tons of what appear to be either multicolored micro shimmers or holographic micro shimmers.  This is a very neat color and I believe I will try stamping with it, once I get all my swatches caught up. I really enjoyed applying this color. Here it is for you to see:


As always I hope you enjoyed the post and come back again soon.  Have a wonderful day and don't forget to smile, you never know whose looking :)

Sinful Colors Daredevil

This is a review for Sinful Colors Daredevil.  Daredevil is a flashy iridescent pink, not really a hot pink but still bright.  It has a purple micro shimmer in the flashy pink base.  This is a super fun color for summer.  It has a very nice formula. Not to thick and not to thin.  Wasn't runny or streaky, which is always a plus for me.  It took 2 coats to achieve an all over even color. It has great dry time. It's another that has definitely made my top 5 favorites. Here it is for you to see:

L.A. Colors BCC 566

Here I have a review for you on L.A. Colors BCC 566 (again I forgot to look for the name on the packaging before throwing it away).  This is a dark frosted blue color.  The formula for this was a little thin. The first coat was pretty streaky.  It took 3 coats to get an even all over coverage from this.  I think I will try it for stamping when I get done with all my back logged swatches.  This might be a fun color for that. Anyways, here it is for you to see:

Enchanted Polish's Austin Powers!

Okay so I've been eying Enchanted Polish's beautiful holographic colors for some time now.  I finally gave in when I saw some pictures of their 'Austin Powers' and heard they would be opening shop.  This color is SPECTACULAR! I LOVE LOVE LOVE, this color.  It seems to me to be a clear base jam packed full of very small gold (possibly holographic) flakes, tiny copper metallic glitters, tiny gold glitter, and I'm pretty sure a good amount of spectra flair.  I accidentally got polish on my finger and that's how I'm drawing my conclusions of what makes up this GORGEOUS polish. 
It goes on wonderfully, even coats, not rough, and after two coats it has pretty much complete coverage, I went with three coats just to be sure. This is just a wonderful color. I absolutely love it, not that I didn't already say that! It has very fast dry time, there's no waiting around to put on the next coat, which is great. I can't think of anything else to say about this wonderfully lovely polish, as I'm too busy staring at my finger nails right now! This is definitely an Indie seller that I recommend purchasing from, I'm sure I will be guilty of purchasing from the again! If you don't have a holographic polish and you are thinking about getting one, I completely recommend getting it from Enchanted Polish, because if their other creations are even half as gorgeous as this one, they will still be spectacular. So here are some very drool worthy cell phone pictures (my camera doesn't take as good of pictures as my cell phone and it cost 3 times as much, how sad is that!):



And now that I have posted those very lovely pictures, I will leave you to drool over this in private :) If you are interested in purchasing click here > Enchanted Polish to get to their Facebook page where you will get updates on when they restock. Or you can click here > EnchantedPolish for the link to their etsy page.

I hope you have all enjoyed this post, and come back again soon for more lovely posts. Have a wonderful day and don't forget to smile, you never know whose looking :)

Sinful Colors Zeus

Well here we have a review on Sinful Colors Zeus.  Zeus is a periwinkle blue with beautiful pink micro shimmers in it! The formula is great. Not to thick not to thin. It wasn't runny or streaky. It went on smooth and I achieved an even all over color in 2 coats. This is a very pretty color for spring and summer.  I look forward for trying out different things with this color. It has an excellent dry time.  This is definitely on my top 5.  If you haven't tried this color you really should! Here it is for you to see (and I know you can't really see the pink shimmer, but I promise it's there):

L.A. Colors BCC 572


Here I have a review for you of L.A. Colors BCC 572. This is from the Color Craze collection (and again I forgot to get the name off of the packaging before discarding it), this is a shimmery turquoise green color.  It appears to be a turquoise green base with lots of green and gold micro shimmers in it.  It's very pretty.  The formula is a bit runny though.  So it did take 3 coats to get an even all over color.  It was a little streaky with the first coat but evened out very nicely. It is a very light color. Here it is, so you can see:

Milani in Breezy

This is a review on Milani's Breezy.  This is a frosted indigo.  Very vibrant.  This has a nice formula.  It went on fairly streak-free. It was not runny.  It only took 2 coats to get a nice even all over color.  I was very satisfied with this color.  This is the first and only (so far) Milani in my collection, so I didn't really know what to expect from it.  Here are some pictures of it:

My Hunger Games Make-up :)

This is the 4th post that pulls it all together!

This was a three part review, and look for the fourth post that pulls it all together! Now a little before the review information.  For those of you who don't know Casandra sells FEVERlacquer right now, and she will soon be offering FEVERshadow loose eye shadow and cream eye shadow.  The colors are a Hunger Games trio! The trio includes: Rue's Wildflowers (part 1), District 12 Soot (part 2), and Effie's Trinket (part 3).  The set will be $12.25.  $5.00 each for loose shadow, or $5.25 each for cream shadow. She's hoping to have them available by the second week of May, in her store > FEVERlacquer.  Each will be available in a 3g plastic pot. So without further ado, here is the third and final color! (This will be picture heavy)

This is how I wore my make-up when I (finally) went to see The Hunger Games. First are on the hand swatches of the products that I used, with a brief description of each.



FEVERlacquer's FEVERshadow (left to right):
Rue's Wildflowers, District 12 Soot, and Effie's Trinnket.



Used but not pictured: Mary Kay Signature Eye Primer, COVERGIRL Clean Liquid & Pressed Powder Foundation/Concealer in Buff Beige, and Maybelline New York Expertwear Eyeshadow in Sparkling Wine (used as blush).

Eyes (left to right):
 Maybelline Great Lash Waterproof Mascara in Very Black, Nabi Khaki Eyeliner Pencil, and Hard Candy Walk the Line Liquid Eyeliner in Licorice.



Lips (right to left):
Avon Ultra Rich Color in Classic Nude, Hard Candy Plumping Serum in Life Preserver, and the 2 mixed together.









Before












With Avon Ultra Rich Color in Classic Nude









With Avon Ultra Rich Color in Classic Nude topped by Hard Candy Plumping Serum in Life Preserver.


Hard Candy's Plumping Serum makes your lips tingly and plumps them up just a bit, but lasts quite a while, as I still had it on when the movie got over. 






I used Effie's Trinket all over, with Rue's Wildflowers at the outter crease/corner, and District 12 Soot with a little water for the liner on the lower lid with a thin coat of Hard Candy's Walk the Line Liquid Eyeliner in Licorice, and Nabi Khaki Eyeliner Pencil on the top lid.



Again I apologize for my crappy bathroom lighting!

You can see Rue's Wildflowers in the picture above ^^ on the outer part of my eye.



District 12 Soot mixed with a little water > to make an excellent eye liner!



By the way if you didn't know, this would be me, the face behind Enchanting Cosmetics :)
