Wet N Wild Coloricon Eye shadow in Snow Sprite


I bought this last year but I keep using it instead of sharing it. I use to adore Physician's Formula eye shadows because they are pigmented and last long just like high end products but didn't know I'll get hook with this brand when the hype started last year. I bought a few the first time but keep coming back in the drug store to grab some more soon as its on sale. 

This eyeshadow consist of blue's and green shades and it comes with a silver eyeliner pencil. As the other palettes they are uber pigmented...I have a normal to dry skin and my eyeshadow stays put with just a good primer. 


This is a close up view, shimmery, pigmented, just a little bit dab of brush goes a long way. 

The swatch of the greens on the left side of the palette, isn't it pretty?


This is the swatch of the right side of the palette, the blue's.  Sorry this is the best shot I can take, didn't emphasize the light bluish on the middle, looks like silver, but in person its light bluish shade. I usually blog at night after work so lighting isn't great.  By the way this retails $5 in the local drug store with 6 beautiful shades and 1 silver eyeliner pen. Of course I won't buy this with regular prize so I got it on BOGO half off!

I am hoarding Wet N Wild eyeshadow because I love their pigmentation, most especially the single eyeshadow, the trios and and palette have some fallout but minimal can be clean up after application....for the dirt cheap price, can't beat that price for an eyeshadow sucker like me!

Wet N Wild coloricon single eyeshadow






I got this eyeshadow in RiteAide when they were having a 40% sale several days ago. I decided to get KITTEN, NUTTY, ENVY and PENNY. I got this for $1.19 a piece! Anyway sad to say because of rushing too much and procastinating before Christmas I ended up breaking the ENVY! 

PROS:
            creamy, silky, pigmented 
            doesn't break me out
            color pay off is awesome
            lots of this eyeshadow are dupe of Nars
            long lasting with eyeshadow primer on
            with just one swipe the color is visible
            wearable color, can be an everyday look

CONS: they should have more shades to choose from
             addicting! haha
       

This is my favorite among all the single eyeshadow, perfect for this holiday and for everyday look. Ever since I got this, I've been using it constantly. Here's the swatch below

It has like a golden undertone, this is what it exactly how it show up on your skin.....

Isn't that pretty? Guess what? I read somewhere that you can use it as blush, I tried and wow, amazing look! yey!


The famous NUTTY shade, its gorgeous color, its a taupe shade! Swatch below


Just one swipe on this swatch, if you want it darker why not, get that taupey color you want!




If you love purples like me, you gotta have this baby!


One swipe only, make it even more darker if you want to......

                                       (image is from Makeup Alley) mine is broken

                                                               Swatch below



 I swiped 2 times and it gives this kind of shade, I wear this at work today with my greens  and I got a compliment :)

Elf's Duo Eye Shadow Cream


I didnt read any reviews of this elf duo cream at all before buying it. I was just glad it cost me a buck each in the store. I grabbed 4 of the colors they have. I tried the Berry Mix the otherday and oh boy! it crease real fast! I tried redoing it and remove my Loreal Decrease primer but it did the same thing. I was kinda disappointed because it would work the same as their Brightening Eyecolor Eyeshadow.


                                     
For all the 4 I have I just open this Berry Mix and used as a base today for their Brightening Eye color eyeshadow without using a primer and I think it did the job. Oh well a buck for a base isn't bad at all right?

My Day Off at Ulta

Its my first time to visit Ulta store, I was just interested to go because Nyx Cosmetics is on sale for buy 2 and get 1 free. I picked up the 10 color eyeshadow palette on Runway collection. At Ulta its kinda pricey but once they have a sale the price is fair. The palette is $9.99 each on regular price but with the sale the 3 palette just cost me $19.98. Its reasonable than when I'll order at cherryculture plus the shipping cost me more. Here is the glimpse of what I got.



and the close up for the famous Jazz night


Very shimmery, pigmented, beautiful colors, I love the sleek miror, its good for travelling. Can't wait to try 'em.

Maybelline's Eye Studio Color Pearls Marbellized Eye Shadow

First time I saw this eyeshadow in the store, I couldn't get my eyes off with them. They are real pretty colors, you can notice right away that they are uber pigmented. Its $5.49 in Walmart but I find it cheaper in Big K store its only $3.99 each. Its the baked eyeshadow version of Maybelline. This is some tip on the site to get the look:

SOFT SHIMMER LOOK


Blend – swirl two shades together, sweep across lid

Emphasize – add marbleized shade to center of lid


PEARLY GLAM LOOK

Accentuate – sweep marbleized shade across lid up to brow bone

Intensify – add solid shade to outer crease; use brush to line along upper lash line for added impact


*All I can say is this a great product for the amount of money, staying power is great, can be remove easily with soap and water. I always use an eyeshadow base so it last the long day of working. I only got 3 colors and 7 more to go. Ten shades all in all for this line......
