Deborah Lippmann Stairway to Heaven Nail Lacquer

Deborah Lippmann Stairway to Heaven Nail Lacquer ($18.00 for 0.50 fl. oz.) contains multi-colored square (mostly) glitter suspended in a clear base color. The polish is thicker, not quite gel-like, but it's thick enough that after two coats (which is what is shown here) that...

NYX Apricot HD Studio Photogenic Grinding Blush

NYX Apricot HD Blush ($16.50 for 0.25 oz. ) is medium-dark coral-red with a soft, satiny shimmer-sheen. The color initially reminded me of Chanel Rouge, which is certainly redder and more intense--with a light hand, they're comparable. It also reminded me of the original MAC...

Illamasqua Violate Sheer Lipgloss

Illamasqua Violate Sheer Lipgloss (£13.00 for 0.20 oz.) is described as a "dark green shimmer." The brand's Sheer Lipgloss is rather self-explanatory--it's a sheerer gloss that adds shine. This is definitely not as opaque as the Intense Lipglosses, but I'd say it's more...

Illamasqua Havoc Precision Ink

Illamasqua Havoc Precision Ink Liquid Eyeliner ($27.50 for 0.06 oz.) is described as an "aubergine" by Illamasqua and "burgundy brown" by Sephora. I reviewed the formula here, and I wore and tested Havoc and had the same results. It's long-wearing and waterproof once it dries...

Deborah Lippmann Do Ya Think I'm Sexy Nail Lacquer

Deborah Lippmann Do Ya Think I'm Sexy Nail Lacquer ($18.00 for 0.50 fl. oz.) contains hexagonal red-hued glitter suspended in a fairly thick, clear base. It's something that would work better for layering than alone, because I couldn't get near to opaque in two coats. You'll...

Illamasqua Kontrol Lipstick

Illamasqua Kontrol Lipstick ($22.00 for 0.14 oz.) is described as a "blue-violet" by Illamasqua, while Sephora lists it as a "matte deep lavender." The texture of Kontrol is actually quite different from Illamasqua's line of lipsticks--it's very, very creamy. It's not dry at...
