Glamour Girl POTW Sulty Siren!!!

Every week a Darling Girl Glamour Girl chooses a Pick Of The Week. This week it is my turn to pick! I chose another fabulous duochrome eyeshadow, Sultry Siren! *I used my 20% Glamour Girl discount when I placed this order*

Sultry Siren: "A murky aqua base with pink shift." I found this description to be spot on.


A few swatches to show the gorgeous sparkle and duochrome in Sultry Siren




The pink duochrome shifts to copper at an angle, so gorgeous!
 

For this look I used:
Darling Girl Primped and Primed
DG Glitter Glue
DG Sultry Siren on the lid
DG Bed Boogie in the outer V and crease
Persephone Minerals Falling Angel in the inner corner
Wet n Wild Brulee on the browbone
WnW ColorIcon black eyeliner
WnW Mega Liner liquid liner in black
Maybelline Colossal Volum mascara

I'm wearing 1 coat of basecoat, 2 coats of Wet n Wild I Need A Refresh-Mint, and 1 coat of WnW Speak When Spoken To. I'm pretty sure this mani was from a year ago >.>









This was 2 coats of WnW I Need A Refresh-Mint alone.

Meow Monday(on a Thursday?)! Summer Spirits Look 2

For this look I used Meow Cosmetics Summer Spirits collection... and wore it about 2 or 3 months ago... yahhhhh I'm not so good at staying up to date with my blogging lol. I did take a picture of the products I used though! That has to count for something right? I'm going to be a huge lazy bum and let you guys play the matching game to figure out what product went where. If you've got a question be sure to leave it in the comments and I'll answer asap!









SILLY PICS!!!

Maybelline Downtown Brown Nail Polish

Yesterday I showed you In Style Sienna from Maybelline's Fall Runway collection. Today I have the matching nail polish called Downtown Brown! I have several nail polishes similar in concept to Downtown Brown (brownish base with greenish-aqua shimmer) but none of them compare to how much I love this one! The base color is a medium, red toned brown with strong green shimmer/shift that changes to aqua, blue and indigo at extreme angles. It was a tad bit thin, but other than that I had no problems with the formula. In the pictures I am wearing 3 coats with basecoat and topcoat.

Femme Fatale Friday! My latest order swatched!

A couple weeks ago I placed my third order with Femme Fatale Cosmetics, and like the times before, I received everything orderly and within a week! Which I think is awesome since its coming all the way from Australia. Sophie is running a top notch company, FFC is quickly becoming one of my absolute favorites to order from.


Descriptions:

Moonstone: "A sheer white shade with a soft blue duochrome shine and sparkles." The duochrome is so intense its unbelievable! As much as I love the Darling Girl Rainbow Brite 'Buddy Blue' it looks kinda weak next to Moonstone.
Archangel: "A translucent yellow-toned ivory eye shadow complimented violet duochrome."
Heroic: "A soft copper-tinged peach based shadow, highlighted by an incredible golden shimmer." Looks like a pale, peachy gold to me.
Frozen Flame: "A pale amber orange with peachy tones, highlighted by a subtle blue shimmer."
Phantasm: "A pale purple with violet tones and copper orange shimmer."
Faerie Fire: "A soft lavender pink with cool undertones, highlighted by a electric lime gold sparkles."
Hallowed Ground: "A pale asparagus green with stunning red shimmer."
Moonglow: "A pale columbia blue with a prominent golden duochrome and subtle pink shimmer."
Sunfire: "A sweet peachy pink with coral tones and a striking copper gold shine. Not to be missed!"
Shadowdance: "A cool grey with bluish undertones and a scattering of subtle blue and pink sparkles."
Rampage: "A vivid copper red shimmer over a burnt umber base."
Spirit Bond: "A deep midnight blue with strong purple undertones and a shimmery golden finish." I see more green than gold in the shift.
Crusader: "A vivid saffron yellow eye shadow complimented by a scattering of gold and copper sparkles."
Forever Lovely Rose was limited edition for Valentines day 2011.
Rebel: "It is a muted thulian pink duochrome shade with violet sparkles. Rebel is a soft and lightweight blush of which the colour can be built up to your liking." Apparently this is a blush lol, I had no idea so I swatched it like an eyeshadow.

Meow Monday! Summer Spirits swatches

I'm a bit behind since it's Tuesday, but whatever!
In my most recent meow order I got a few samples of a new summer collection called Summer Spirits. Pretty much the whole collection was gorgeous and screamed SUMMER! I kinda wish I'd gotten a few more to try, the ones I did get (and are swatched in this order) Tequila Sunrise, Mimosa, Jungle Juice, Mint Julep, Teal Tini, and Blue Hawaiian. All were swatched over foundation and pictures taken in window light.

Tequila Sunrise: a true medium yellow with a subtle silvery peach sheen.

Mimosa: A light golden, metallic apricot base with a peachy pink sheen.

Jungle Juice: a medium orangey coral with strong watermelon pink sheen.

Mint Julep: light minty green with pale gold sheen.

Teal Tini: a teal base with turquoise sheen.

Blue Hawaiian: light metallic blue with aqua sheen.
