NOTW - Purple Sparkle + Fantasea



Another layering experiment. This one is Nubar Purple Sparkle + Orly Fantasea.
The actual result on the nail is more neon and less bumpy than this pic.

NOTW - Tokaido Express + Ruby Pump



This is 1 layer of NARS Tokaido express with 1 layer of China Glaze Ruby Pump layered on top of it. (click on the pic to enlarge it)
Isn't it just lovely? I really really like this combination!
(and sorry for the crappy nails, as usuall this is taken a few days after the initial application)

Majolica Majorca Trick on Powder BR751



Hi All,

On my trip to japan last September, I bought this eyeshadow quad from Majolica Majorca. Majolica is a drugstore branch of shishedo. This quad is in BR751 and the price is 1500 yen (around US$18) for 4g of product.

The swatch on this quad can be seen below: (Click for larger view)


And how's my take on it?
I don't like it...
I've worn it once since I got it, and I'm not impressed. They swatched nicely and pigmented enough on my hand, but didn't really show up on my eyelid (NC20).
The colors are shimmery and pretty though, so maybe I'll try again sometime and try to pack more color on my lid.

NOTW - Zoya Shivon



Zoya Shivon, described by Zoya as A dark rose gold with hints of purple and bronze and strong gold duochrome shimmer. To me it looks like deep rose pink with bronze shimmer.
This swatch is 2 coats with Seche Vite top coat.
Photo is taken outside in bright sunlight.

NYY swatch

Swatches from my last haul

This is the highlighter, peach blush, and taupe blush (swatched heavily, then blended).


These are the Megashine lipgloss (plus 2 color from my stash). I love these glosses, but my favorite that I wear all the time is Perfect.
When I swatch these I just realized that the pigmentation varies between shade. French kiss seems to be the more opaque one in my collection.
