I still think there’s a lack of emerald green eyeshadows on the marketplace, so I’d still favor creating an emerald green with an inky depth and a twinkling finish that was very smooth but bright. I’d call it Apex of Envy ’cause it would be like MAC Jealousy Wakes but better 😉 Sydney...
They have a lot of high-quality product formulas, and with everything at an affordable price point, it is a great brand to reference for anyone on a budget.

I think it'd be fun to go through what we used, purchased, resisted, and so forth each month, here are some questions:
Becca Ultimate Lipstick Love ($24.00 for 0.12 oz.) is now up to 40 shades (10 shades released recently). I took advantage of the buy one, get one free/50% off offers going on for National Lipstick Day last week and bought the range! Here are swatches of all 40 shades :)
