Rouge Bunny Rouge Delicate Hummingbird Eye Shadow

I have been lusting after Rouge Bunny Rouge delicate hummingbird for months.  It has been sold out at the only place to get it, Zuneta.  I finally got my hands on this beauty and it was worth it!!! It is gorgeous!  It is a dark sugared plum.  It sparkles without any fall out which I love!  Some have compared this shade to Chanel's fauve and while they are similar, they are different enough to need  both for me. Chanel Fauve is a very sparkly taupe.  RBR delicate hummingbird is a dark purple with hints of taupe.  I like it better than fauve.  Fauve can look a little corpse like on me as most taupe colors can.  There is none of that with hummingbird.    I also experience fall out with Fauve.  I really dislike that. Here are some comparison shots. Rouge bunny rouge is on the left, chanel fauve on the right.  Where there are 4 swatches, the 2 in the middle are of them used wet.  Same order.

GlitterFest-"Excuse My French" Nail Polish!

As you can tell, I recently have been obsessed with nail polish.  I love finding new brands and have found a few lately that are real winners!  GlitterFest is at the top of the list.  I found her On Etsy recently.  She has some amazing colors with really cute names.  Her names are as creative as her formulations.  I love all the different colored glitters she uses. Her polish has it all.  When scrolling through Etsy for polish, I found a few from sellers that I thought were missing something.  They would be great, if they just added something to it.  I couldn't place my finger on it, just that something was missing.  Not with GlitterFest!!! Her polish really stands out from the rest. I recently received my first order.  As soon as I tested them I immediately placed another!  At $4 a pop you can try a bunch with out feeling guilty!  LOVE that!  I find the quality to be really good. Below is "Excuse My french".   It is described as a gorgeous periwinkle/purple jelly with micro blue and silver glitter with medium/large square/hex silver glitter.  It is stunning!  I used 2/3 coats over Zoya Marley.  Great combo.  Please excuse my dry cuticles:(  Check her out at Etsy!  She is super sweet.

Jason Wu for Target!!! GoGoGo!!! UPDATE WITH PICS!

Jason Wu just launched his Target collection!  It is super fashionable and has nice classics to add to any wardrobe.  The line is made up of tons of pretty dresses, blouses, fancy T's, skirts, coats, and a gorgeous party dress.  Hurry now!  I was at Target 30 minutes before they opened and there was a line. At my Target the line was comparable to the Missoni ordeal. Online items are very limited.  I found the sizing to be all over the place.  Some things ran  large, others small, others just right.  You really need to check it out in person.  I found the coats to run the largest! I like when a line has consistent sizing.  I found the quality on some items pretty poor.  Buttons falling right off, and threads hanging all over.  Stitches sewn poorly.  I also thought a few things just looked cheap.  Online they look a lot better.  The prices were reasonable, so I can't complain there. There were a few key pieces that I thought were done well.  The party dress, blue coat, and the blue stripped dress were the stand out items.  Must haves!! Overall, I say Check it out!

Sunday Riley Blush-Honest 104

Recently in the blog world there has been a lot of buzz about Sunday Riley Blushes.  I wanted both Blushing 101 and Honest 104, but Blushing was out of stock. Lucky for my bank account! Honest is a beautiful natural blush with a nice subtle glow.  I don't have another color like it in my collection. It is a  gorgeous glowing peachy nude color. It is pretty light but can be built up for a stronger look.  I have yet to fully test it out so will keep you updated. Here is what the product description says- This universally flattering blush is completely versatile, leaving your cheeks with a soft, flushed radiance or built up for more pigments to give a more dramatic effect.  Round shaped pigments give a silky feel and diffuse light for a smooth, natural, luminous finish. Sounds about right to me! Here are a few swatches!!

Dior Rosy Glow- Healthy Glow Awakening Blush

I think I found a new favorite Blush!!!!  The new Dior Rosy glow.  This blush is a beauty.  It also has an interesting quality.  It is like a mood ring or lipstick.  It changes color to adjust itself to your skin tone.  How cool is that??  Dior describes it as blush that intuitively adjusts to the moisture of each skin, and upon application develops a rosy radiance to match each skin tone for an all day ultra natural, customized and healthy glow effect.  In the pan the blush appears to be a cool toned pink with hints of lavender, but looks different on my skin.  It is GORGEOUS!  You have to go check this out!!!  I hear it is part of the permanent line which is great news!  This is one that I instantly fell for and has to be my favorite blush in a while. Here are a few swatches.  Better swatches to come later!  These were taken in bad lighting, but I was excited to get them on here.  Don't mind kitty in the background!

Dollish Polish Super Bass!

Recently my nail polish addiction has kicked into overdrive!  I cant control myself!  I have found Etsy to be a great way to try new polishes at a great price. I discovered a very intriguing line called Dollish Polish.  Cute name, even cooler colors.  She makes custom franken polishes that are very unique!  I placed an order for a few of the minis.  At $4 a piece, I could try a few without breaking the bank.  Today I  am reviewing Super Bass.  Super bass is a sheer sparkly base, with purple and blue shimmers, silver, purple, and blue mid size sparkles, and very large purple sparkles. I found it challenging to get the biggest sparkles on my nails.  I only manged to get 2 of them on 2 nails.  I wish I could have had some on each nail. I still think it is a fun color!  I also loved that it did not feel gritty at all. That is very surprising since it was full of glitter.  My nails feel so smooth with it on!! Check out her booth at Etsy! She is very sweet and accommodating.  My order was shipped right away! Here are some pics!  I had to use the turquoise from my Nicki Minaj set with it.   Pre clean up again:)
