SINFUL COLORS LIMITED EDITION HALLOWEEN NAIL POLISH

Hi to all,


Todays blog is on the nail polish line Sinful Colors which are starting to pop around select Canadian stores.

I happen to be at a nearby Rexall/Pharmaplus store and they had a few limited edition Halloween polishes available. However I did find out more colours will be available from the permanent line.

The two limited edition colours are COURTNEY ORANGE and PUMPKIN SPICE

Courtney Orange is a true bold satin finish orange polish that will also work for the summer months as well and would look amazing against tanned skin and paired with white sandals. As for its use in our current Fall season I think some cute pumpkin, ghost and witch nail jewels would be super awesome to top off this colour, or even make some jack-o-lantern faces with black nail art polish. You could even do some black crackle polish over top if you don't want to do anything to complicated.

Pumpkin Spice is a red and gold sparkle polish that will surely add flare to your Halloween manicure if your looking to jazz up all your nails or just your accent one. As you can see I did a couple of coats over the orange polish which looks great as well.

 

In my eyes Sinful Colors bottles look very similar to both OPI and China Glaze and work quite well and have good rich opacity as with some high end nail polishes. However the bonus with Sinful Colors is that they are totally affordable for all budgets. In Canada they run about $3.

 

I am looking forward to discovering more from Sinful Colours and seeing their full colour range up close and in person.

MILANI COSMETICS LIPSTICKS, GLOSS, LIP CRAYON AND BRONZER

Originally when I placed this order I thought I had a variety of items, only to discover that its mostly lip products. So if your a big fan of lip goodies then keep reading.

All the Milani items I ordered are from WELL.CA.

The first item is the LIP FLASH full coverage shimmer gloss pencil. This pencil is amazing you look at it on and would think it came from a lipstick tube, but no it's a crayon. The colour is 05 HOT FLASH. This is a true sexy red that leaves a wet look to the lips.

 

You can see this colour on my lips if you check out my INSTAGRAM by clicking on the link in the side bar.

 

The next item is the CRYSTAL GLOSS FOR LIPS in the colour SUMMER BABY. This is such a pretty soft pink with a beautiful fine gold shimmer. This is almost identical to PAUL & JOE'S lip gloss, part of the lip and eye duo called Santa Monica. The only difference is Paul & Joe's is a hair lighter. You can also get a similar colour from Mac called Nymphette

 

 

 

However all these colours are similar but not in price. The Milani is only $5.50, Mac runs $15 and on the higher end Paul & Joe's lip and eye duo is $34. At least there is options here for every budget which is nice.

 

The next two items are Milani's colour perfect lipsticks.

 

For summer I am a huge fan of the bright and bold, so after viewing colour swatches on line at WELL.CA I decided to go with #23 MANGO MAMBO. This is a rich orange red colour that is not for the faint of heart, you will stop traffic with this lip colour.

 

 

The next colour is #07 ROSE HIP. This lipstick is such a staggering bright pink your friends may need to wear sunglasses. This is a deep delicious pink reminiscent of that of the skin on the magical dragon fruit. So if your looking for a bright exotic pink to wear this summer grab yourself some "Rose Hip."

 

 

 

Milani lipsticks do have fragrance in them that is noticeable, so beware if your sensitive to fragrant cosmetics. They are 3.74g and are only $5.29 at Well.Ca.

 

The very last item today is the BAKED BRONZER in the shade SOLEIL. This is a very nice bronzer, however it does have a noticeable shimmer to it compare to other's I have tried. Which in the world of bronzer you either love it or hate it. I don't mind it, but I prefer something warmer and more natural. The compact is fairly nice and has an extra compartment that houses a small brush and a handy mirror, similar to that of Physicians Formula. Great for throwing into your bag for on the go touch ups.

 

 

 

So if your looking for a fun, sunny, affordable bronzer check out Milani Baked Bronzer today. It also has no scent which is nice and may be more ideal for those who have sensitive skin.

This bronzer is 7g and was $12.99 and comes in two other shades which are GLOW & GOLDEN

 

 

I hope you all enjoyed this review and maybe you too will find products to love from Milani.

 

I find these products to be good quality and very affordable. I just wish they were sold more readily in Canadian big box stores. However if you live in Canada and want to purchase Milani products then check out

MAKE UP FOR EVER ***NEW SUMMER*** AQUA ROUGE LIQUID LIP COLOR

I want to start this blog by saying THANK YOU to MAKE UP FOR EVER for taking a chance on a newer blogger such as MakeUp'Asylum and sending me one of their lovely products from PR for review and consideration.

This review will be on the AQUA ROUGE water proof liquid lip color from the AQUA SUMMER 2013 collection. Which is now available at Sephora online and in stores and MAKE UP FOR EVER Boutiques.

I have mentioned in a previous post that I am a fan of orange makeup in general and this product is just that #17 BRIGHT ORANGE.

This summer line of five new colors are super saturated and meant to last. This is a dual ended product, one end is the highly pigmented color and the other is a clear non-tacky top coat for added dimension and shine.

 

 

 

 

This orange color is so amazing the intensity of it is incomparable to anything else I have ever tried. This literally seems like a paint color for your lips. If you ever want a lip gloss that literally doesn't budge and looks like what you see in magazine ads that we all wish we could achieve in real life then this is it.

 

The other qualities of this product that I like is the beautiful smell. Also the clear top coat gives a seal affect on the lips locking in the color for non-stop wear ability. I applied a bit of the top coat to my hand and it feels like a perfectly primed surface with just enough smooth slip. I imagine as stated by MAKE UP FOR EVER that it is due in part to the " high molecular weight polymers and volatile oils." It feels so nice I would even like something like this top coat created as a hand oil, it makes your skin and lips feel super smooth.

I don't see any feathering on the edge of my lip and it really is kiss and smudge proof because I used my husband as my guinea pig, thank you honey;).

 

So what can I say this is my first experience with Make Up For Ever and hopefully it won't be my last. I am sold on the quality of this product and see why many people love this brand.

 

The other 4 shades available are #16 Fuschia, #19 Pomegranate, #20 Baby Pink, #18 Coral. Each tube is double ended with 2x 2.5ml of product and is $29 Cad or $24 U.S

 

 

I would also like to try the "Aqua Cream's" and "Aqua Eye's" I adore intense bold color payoff. The BRIGHTER the better.

 

Don't hesitate try one of the AQUA SUMMER products soon

your face will thank-you

 

I can't wait to try this lip color when I go swimming, I'll look as good going in as when I get back out. MUAH XXXXX
