Okay, so it's more like recently acquired lipglosses and one lipstain and lipliner, but the title is long enough as it is. ;] Here's the last of my mini swatchfests of recently acquired shit, including the Boldly Bare Lip Liner and Deelight Cremesheen Glass from my MAC Sultry Iced Delights Lip Bag, She-Zam Dazzleglass from Holiday 2011, Narcissus Cremesheen Glass from Daphne Guinness, and an Etude House Fresh Cherry Tint in #3 Peach. Picked up the Sultry Lip Bag and She-Zam from Ebay, got Heather to CP me Narcissus, and the Etude House was a spur of the moment Ebay purpose. I'm guessing my beloved Zinopark didn't have it in stock, because I bought through some other seller for the first time. o.o
I can't say I'm a fan of the Dazzleglass formula, it's so sticky that I only use it when I know I'm going to have my hair up, or conversely I tie my hair up when I know I'm going to use it. They're glorified magnets for stray hairs, but hot damn are they pretty. She-Zam is filled with silver and white shimmer that reflects pink, and it's obviously part of my layer-silver-over-EVERYTHING kick.
Like I mentioned in my last post, I bought the Sultry Iced Delights Lip Bag because I thought the browned pink colours would be very work appropriate. I already knew I loved the non-sticky Cremesheen Glass formula, and was eager to try a MAC lipliner for the first time. (FYI: it's the creamiest lip pencil I own!) The same applies for Narcissus Cremesheen Glass - I knew I loved the formula, and I knew I loved magenta.
Etude House Fresh Cherry Tint in #3 Peach was sort of an impulse buy. Sort of. Y'all have probably noticed that I use the pink version of this under ALL my pink lip looks, and I have an orange one from a different collection that I layer under bright orange lipsticks. For a long time I'd been feeling like I was lacking that in-between shade, a milky peach that didn't lean too orange and that wouldn't drastically alter the colour of any coral or peach that I layered over the top. I knew Etude House made a peach version in this formula, so one night I just bit the bullet and hunted one down on Ebay.
It doesn't really stain the lips that orange colour you see in the swatch. It leans a little pink, but it's not neon Barbie like the pink version in this formula. I'd say it's more of a coral than a milky peach, and the bottom of the swatch gives a better indication of the colour it turns on the lips. Like the pink shade though, it's a great lipstain. It gives intense colour in one layer, unlike Benefit Posie Tint which takes 3 layers to look half as bright on me. >___>
Hope you enjoyed the swatches! I'll finish the week with a couple of FOTD posts, since this week (and the end of 2011 and start of 2012 as a whole, really) have been so swatch heavy! :)
