OPI Infinite Shine 2: V-I-Pink Passes


Shown in natural sunlight
OPI V-I-Pink Passes is a bright candy pink and is the perfect spring and summer color. Very fun, flirty and feminine. The color swatches lighter on the nails than in the bottle and is quite sheer, I applied two coats and it is still not opaque.  It is still a cute color though.

Juvia's Place The Warrior III Palette

  This Juvia's Place palette features seven matte eye shadows and two frosted eye shadows colors. Unlike Warrior I and II this palette, features all bold and vibrant colors with the exception of the two frosty shadows on the bottom row Kongo and Karama.  The second Warrior palette is more earth toned, where the first Warrior palette was more greens and golds. Each palette gives way to create a look that is unique and playful. The Warrior III Palette is very fun and features the always beautiful and unique artwork that draws us in every time. Is anyone else getting Juvia's 2017 Zulu palette vibes? 
 Recommendations
To make the colors in this palette really pop on the eyes. Use a white or cream eye shadow base, pat colors on the lids with your eye shadow brush, to build up intensity.

Spring Forward: Anastasia Beverly Hills Liquid Lipstick Madison

 Spring is quickly approaching and I am for the time being stepping away from my everyday signature red lip and opting for a more fun and sweet lip color. Madison is described as a vibrant plum magenta, and it is flattering on all skin tones.  It is opaque in one application and dries down fairly quickly. Anastasia's liquid lipstick formula is not my favorite because after 3 to 4 hours the color begins to cake up on the lips, because the formula is very dry. But this color is one of my favorites. $20.00USD

OPI Infinite Shine 2: Unrepentantly Red

Swatched in the sunlight on day 4 of wear
 I have been searching for months for a bright bold orange red and I have finally found it. It took me 3 coats to get to opacity, and I used Jordana's Quick Shine top coat. Normally I would strike a polish if I have to apply more than two coats, but Unrepentantly Red is so beautiful, all is forgiven. Perfect for spring and summer and looks great on all nail shapes. $13.00 USD/15ml 0.5 Fl. Oz
