I haven’t been wearing makeup for the past few weeks, because it’s been Too Darn Hot. (That song has been stuck in my head for just about as long.) I haven’t changed my toenail polish from the Talullah/Hidden Treasure combo because I’ve been lazy and it still looks good. I have, however, swatched my entire [...]
You’ve probably already seen swatches of these, and in fact the swatches you’ve already seen are probably a lot better than these. This is the new Aromaleigh eyeshadow collection Victoria’s Revenge, and Kristen was kind enough to send me a sample set to review. (My first PR samples! So exciting for a wee blogger.)

Today is the more beige-y colors. I tried to arrange them from most beige to least, but as I learned yesterday, tube color != on-skin color.
(Earth Angel especially looks a lot nicer swatched than in the tube.)
(I like Iced Honey a lot better swatched as well.) In this shot, Opal looks basically white. Which it [...]
Sometime during the week before Christmas, I read somewhere (I think it was some random Livejournal community) about this one-time deal NYX Cosmetics was doing on their lipsticks. It was a set of 60 lipsticks for $48. I did the math and took a look, because I can’t resist a bargain. Turns out it wasn’t [...]
