Tom Ford True Coral Lip Color

Tom Ford for Lipstick -- Test #3

Tom Ford True Coral Lip Color ($45.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a devilishly bright true coral.  It is as it is named!  It's a vibrant coral that leans a little orange, but overall, it's exactly what I envision coral being in its purest form. ...

NARS Daphne Eyeshadow (Fall 2010)

Don't Judge an Eyeshadow by a Swatch?!

NARS Daphne Eyeshadow ($23.00 for 0.07 oz.) is a rich shade of night violet purple. It's dark and deep and bright. But I have to warn you: don't judge by a mere swatching on your arm. I've often found that matte...

Tom Ford Pure Pink Lip Color

Tom Ford for Lipstick -- Test #2

Tom Ford Pure Pink Lip Color ($45.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a tantalizingly bright fuchsia pink with a satin-matte finish.  It might have the most subtle dusting of shimmer in it, but it's really hard to make a clear distinction.  It's almost like...

Finally, a Mustard I Like!

NARS Mangrove Eyeshadow ($23.00 for 0.07 oz.) is a mustard yellow with just a tinge of green. It has a satin sheen, and it's nicely pigmented. This is a color you just don't see very often, because it's not always an easy to wear shade.

The only other...

Tom Ford Pink Dusk Lipstick

Tom Ford Pink Dusk Lipstick

Tom Ford for Lipstick -- Test #1

Tom Ford Pink Dusk Lip Color ($45.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a subtle, toned-down pink with a little fleshy nude to it. I wouldn't describe it so much as a nude as I would a pale pink. I'd say it's a rather neutral pink, too -- in some light, it...

Could You Taupe Me Off?

Burberry Taupe Brown (07) Eyeshadow ($29.00 for 0.088 oz.) is a rich grayed brown with a softened, cool-toned edge. I love the pay off of it, and the texture is soft and smooth as silk. It has a semi-matte, semi-satin kind of finish, so...

The Summer Season: MAC Fusion Pink Lipstick

MAC Fusion Pink Lipstick ($14.00 for 0.10 oz.) is truly a retina-burning kind of pinky-red.  I wanted to put some shades on when I was editing this in its original size, because I swear, my eyes were like, "Hey, this is rude!"  This shade is a cross...

Chanel Exotic Rouge Allure Lipstick ($30.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a vibrant shade of orange with only the slightest hint of coral tones.  It's mostly orange, but you can tell it's not your typical true orange,...
