Do you own any products you don’t actually use?

-

Hundreds. Maybe thousands. There are a lot of products I’ve purchased for review but haven’t had time to even photograph/swatch — it is something I’ve actively been working at being more realistic about what I can/can’t review in a reasonable length of time.

Revlon Plum Baby, Mauvy Night, Spicy Cinnamon Super Lustrous Lipsticks Reviews & Swatches

-
Image
Plum Baby Revlon Plum Baby Super Lustrous Lipstick ($8.49 for 0.15 oz.) is a muted, medium-dark plum with subtle, warm undertones and cooler, ultra-fine pearl that gave it a luminous sheen. It had buildable coverage from medium to semi-opaque in two layers, while the texture was lightweight, emollient and almost balm-like, but thin and not overly slippery, so it didn’t slide around while worn. It lasted well for four hours and was moisturizing while worn.

Chanel Blurry Blue (324) Eyeshadow Quad Review & Swatches

Blurry Blue (324) Chanel Blurry Blue (324) Les 4 Ombres Multi-Effect Quadra Eyeshadow ($62.00 for 0.07 oz.) is a new, permanent (or so it seems, as it is not listed as limited edition on the brand’s website) featuring a smokier set of shades–two taupes, a deep (but faded) blue, and mid-depth gray. For me, I could see this as an anchor palette–one that will complement a lot of other palettes (particularly your lighter or more shimmery palettes)–but runs together a lot on its own. The pigmentation, blendability, and ease of use was good across the board, though. 1 0 Blurry Blue (324) Blurry Blue (324) A Permanent Where to Buy Affiliate Links Nordstrom Neiman Marcus Saks The Bay (CA) Selfridges Bergdorf Goodman House of Fraser (UK) John Lewis (UK) Sephora (France) Bloomingdale's FeelUnique Chanel Dillard's 1 0 Where to Buy Affiliate Links Nordstrom Neiman Marcus Saks The Bay (CA) Selfridges Bergdorf Goodman House of Fraser (UK)...

Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Intense & Pillow Talk Medium Lipsticks Review & Swatches

-
Image
Pillow Talk Medium Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Medium Matte Revolution Lipstick ($37.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a muted, dusty coral with subtle, warm undertones and a satin finish. It had medium coverage in a single layer that was buildable to semi-opaque coverage with a second layer. It was paired with a smooth, lightly emollient texture that felt more velvety than moist, so it glided on easily but didn’t feel slippery on. There was a smidgen of product that sank into my deeper lip lines but wasn’t noticeable in person (just in the close-up photos). It wore well for four and a half hours and was neither drying nor hydrating over time.
