Review+Swatches - Addiction NV Cosmetics ReHab Collection

The few ADDICTION NV COSMETICS items I’ve tried have been pretty good and I’m adding this next one to that list. They just put out 3 different concealers to conquer or rather reHab your eye ailments.

All three products contain natural extracts and Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, which is derived from coconut oil and known to calm the skin so it helps with puffiness under the eyes. Each is mineral-based and made to heal and conceal.

Review+Swatches - Benefit Cha Cha Tint Mango Stain

I’ve long been a fan of any kind of makeup stain because of the longevity, obviously. And I may have been too harsh on a product in the next line, specifically, BENEFIT COSMETICS’ stain/tint products. See, I’m just not a fan of the nail polish brushes they use to apply the color. I just don’t get it! It’s thin and makes things streaky … I just don’t get it but many must since their Benetint has topped many-a top 10 beauty lists over the years.

Review+Swatches - Mally Beauty Eye Amplifying Shadow Liners

Let’s continue the obsession with all things fat liner! MALLY BEAUTY Eye Amplifying Shadow Liner Duo in Deep Plum and Stone are waterproof and can be used as a liner or all-over the lid. On one side is the liner and the other is a smudger, which I always find myself needing no matter which liner I use.

Review+Swatches - Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencils

URBAN DECAY always puts out some of the most unique colors but here is the problem I have with the 24/7 line and while I’m at it, the Baked line. When they add more colors to these two collections over a long period of time, I think it confuses people that don’t follow every color the brand puts out and they might think, “I think I’ve got that already,” when they hear of a new color being added. If the brand just put out whole newly named collections or item and color, I really think it would catch more eyes. Just my two cents.

On that note, they just came out with some new 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil colors and I was quite excited to swatch them here.

NARS Spring 2012 Collection

NARS - The Spring 2012 Collection is a study in contrasts: Bold color underscored by sophisticated shimmer. Eyes glisten in muted tones of lavender and pink, or shimmer in bronze shades accented with rich navy. Cheeks are flushed with candy pink. Lips gleam in topaz or pop with berry. Metallic violet nails add the finishing touch to a collection that’s bright, strong and iconic.
