Silver eyeshadow: Urban Decay Strip / Urban Decay Uzi
Metallic Lip Color: MAC Tanarama Lipstick
fave silver e/s = L’Oreal HiP Metallic Duo Platinum Silver Side
fave gold nail polish = NK Flamboyant
fave gold l/s = MUFE #17 base, Ruby Kisses Golden Orange & Kiss NY Golden Honey on top. While I love the staying power of the MUFE, the other beauty supply brands pack a more vibrant gold punch. However they are more oily, so the staying power is zilch, hence the layering. *shrugs*
– Urban Decay Strip and Vapor
– Dior Timeless Gold
– I don’t really care for metallic lip colors

Silver shadow: Fyrinnae Mirrors
Gold polish: Orly Rage (rose gold)
Metallic Lip: Cargo made a chubby lip pencil set of 4 quite a number of years ago. They are amazing with Banff being my favorite metallic lip. Sadly, it’s discontinued.
Favorite silver eyeshadow? The silver in my Lorac 3D palette, it’s got a great brightness to it.
Favorite gold nail polish? I don’t wear an awful lot of gold…if Zoya Jules counts, then that!
Favorite metallic lip color? I don’t know if I have anything shiny enough to consider it “metallic.” I have a lot of shimmers, and I’m fond of UD’s Midnight Cowboy lipstick, which packs a lot of gold shimmer to it while being sheer enough to be wearable for just about anyone.
Favorite Silver Eyeshadow: Stila Twilight
Favorite Gold Nail Polish: Zoya Goldie
Favorite Metallic Lip Color: MUFE Lab Shine #M2 and #M4

Try Sephora for OPI Looks Like Rain, Dear! You have to like glitter, though. If you like a more subtle gold, Keep Me On My Mistletoe (also Sephora for OPI) is a gorgeous champagne gold and it’s really great.
FAVE silver eyeshadow is Makeup Forever flash color in silver
I dnt have a favr gold polish yet but I liked the dior one and rhe gild polish tha in macs gift set right now.

1. UD Strip – thank you for showing me this! it’s just an awesome eyeshadow.
2. Butter London West End Wonderland – PLEASE review this, i think you’d really like it! i don’t know how the wear compares but the formula is much better than no more waity katie (less gritty, doesn’t clump everywhere) and the color is GORGEOUS. seriously.
3. i don’t think i’ve ever tried any!
Favorite silver eyeshadow? The silver from Tarte’s True Blood Palette is perfect!
Favorite gold nail polish? Sephora for OPI: Looks Like Rain, Dear…it’s incredible. Shimmy true gold with multicolored microglitter, you only need 2 coats or 3 max, and it stays on for weeks with a base and top coat.
Favorite metallic lip color? Kat Von D Adora! Also MUFE’s Lab Shine Gloss in the Metallic finish, any color.
