Rimmel - Magnif'eyes - Glameyes Mono Eyeshadow - Q-Jump



I didn't get this to use as an eye shadow, I got it to use as a highlight.


Swatch!

There are very few highlights available in stores that will actually be light enough for me.
So white eye shadow is a better bet.

Check out that highlight!

This is a shimmery white shadow with really poor colour payoff.

I applied it with a kabuki brush (which is a big brush) and it worked great!

But never EVER use this as an eye shadow, it will be more disappointing than you can ever imagine.

Price: 4/5 ($10.95 for 3.5g)
New Name: Money Shot
Effectiveness: 0/5 (as an eyeshadow), 2/5 (as a highlight)

Elizabeth Arden - Color Intrigue - Dare



I think my one may be a bit old, its quite dry.
It pulls on my lips when I try to put it on.

The colour is a brick red with a slight gold shimmer, which always looks like a 'more mature' colour.


Lip stick over BJLL4 lip liner.

This isn't really a shade I can pull off.

Swatch.

It also smells like house paint, not that desirable to have on your face.

The resulting colour is patchy and wears off quickly.

I think this is a pass for me.

Price: 2/5 ($20 for 4 g)
Scent: 1/5
Effectiveness: 1/5

W7 - Nail Polish - 131 Bronze Debris


This is a clear nail polish with gold, bronze, and black glitter. 
It is a mix of lines, circles, and really fine specks.

Once coat.

I have nail polish swatch sticks now so I will swatch the colours there.
On the underside I will put a black cross, to give you a better idea of opacity.


Science! Because I'm giving you evidence!


While it is a fun idea, I didn't realise it had black glitter in it when I purchased it.
I could do without the black glitter in this one.

Price: 5/5 ($2.99 for 15mL)
New name: Scrap Metal
Effectiveness: 3/5
