MAC “Half-Wild” Paint Pot
Posted on September 26, 2011 | 1 CommentI happened to be at my local MAC when they launched their Fall 2011 collection called Posh Paradise. Although this collection includes 10 Mattene Lipsticks and 2 Nail Lacquers, my eyes went directly to the 8 limited edition Paint Pots! I got this red-based mid-tone purple called "Half-Wild". I like using paint pots as a base, but they can also be worn alone. To give you an idea of how Half-Wild can transform the color of an eye shadow when used as a base, check out the swatches!

Back to MAC Recycling Program
Posted on September 21, 2011 | 2 CommentsBack to MAC (Back2Mac/B2M) is a program at MAC Cosmetics that rewards customers for recycling their empty containers. When you turn in 6 containers that have plastic, you receive either a free lipstick at a MAC counter in a department store or a free lipstick, lip gloss, or single eye shadow at a freestanding MAC store. Here are some examples of items you can bring in as well as pictures of what I traded and got for free! Read more... -
Inglot AMC Pure Pigment Eye Shadows
Posted on September 14, 2011 | 4 CommentsI picked up these three gorgeous pure pigments at Inglot in Town Square Las Vegas! Inglot AMC Pure Pigments are highly concentrated loose powder, similar to MAC Pigments. These can be applied wet or dry, and I've swatched each one both ways so you can see how pretty these look! The color payoff is awesome, and they blend very easily with other pigments and pressed eye shadows. Check out pictures of the swatches and how these pigments look up close in their containers!

Inglot Lipstick 126
Posted on September 7, 2011 | 2 CommentsMy first experience shopping at an Inglot store was last November when I was in London, and ever since then I've been wanting to visit a store here in the US. I finally made my way to Las Vegas to shop at not one but TWO Inglot locations there! This is the first lipstick that really caught my eye at the store -- Inglot Lipstick 126. It's such a vibrant berry red! If you want more of a natural pop of color on your lips, this lipstick also looks nice as a stain when applied lightly. Plus it smells divine! Read more... -
Sally Hansen Salon Effects Nail Polish Strips in “Bling It On”
Posted on August 29, 2011 | Leave a CommentSome of you might already be aware of my fascination with Sally Hansen Salon Effects Nail Polish Strips. These nail strips last much longer than any nail polish I've tried, and they always get lots of compliments (read more about them in my detailed review)! Although I've gone through 7 boxes of these Sally Hansen nail strips (and counting!), this is the first one I've tried with a glitter finish. This medium bright pink design is called "250 Bling It On". Read more...
