Jesse's Girl Sunset Blvd

Moving through my Eye Dusts from Jesse's Girl, today's shade is Sunset Blvd, a red base with shimmering gold in it.

Both sun pictures show a heavy gold flash, despite all the pink base showing in the pan.

In the shade, you can see more of the pink base, less of the gold - still very pretty.  This is one of my favorite colors for eyes.

Indoors with the flash, you can see a good mix of the pink and the gold - very lovely.  I can't wait to wear this out on the town!

Jesse's Girl sells for $4.99 a piece online or at Rite Aid stores. You can visit Jesse's Girl on their website, Like them on Facebook and Follow them on Twitter.

OPI It's Totally Fort Worth It

Continuing with the Texas collection, this is It's Totally Fort Worth It.  For the record, I kind of avoid the Dallas-Fort Worth area, sorry friends.  It's just way too far north for me.  Now, this color is weird.  It LOOKS like a grey creme but it's not.

Welcome to a grey shimmer.  I used a base of OPI Natural Nail, 3 coats of polish and a top of OPI Top Coat.  I decided to shift my hand so you can see that this is anything BUT a creme.

Can you see the sheer tonight?

In the shade, it's a bit more opaque but barely.  It also seems really more of a gloss.

Finally indoors with the flash (and one nick later), you can see that this color lacks some serious punch.  I was really kind of sad because there's nothing special about this for me.  No duochrome, no sparkles... boo.  Then again, that's kind of how I feel about Fort Worth :P

OPI is available at Professional Salons, including Beauty Brands, Beauty First, Chatters, Dillard’s, JCPenney, Pure Beauty, Regis, Trade Secret, and Ulta, for $8.50 ($10.95 CAN) suggested retail for each Nail Lacquer. Please visit their website for details [official website].

Jesse's Girl Kiwi Rose

A few months ago, I was given the opportunity to help Jesse's Girl Cosmetics with their nail polish line, and in return for my work, I was offered store credit.  I decided to take my store credit and purchase the Eye Dust - A Collection - 28 shades in all.  All come sealed in a 2.5 gram pan with a sifter insert (note to self, I'm still learning how to use sifters properly) and a label that unfortunately has to be destroyed in order to open the container.  As you can see, the top lid has the company's logo and the bottom of the container has the ingredients list.

Today I'm testing out Kiwi Rose - Product 80580.  It's a light yellow with green flash, a lot like their nail polish Fire Fly.


This swatch was just the sifter insert removed and placed on my arm, no primer was used.

In the sun, you can see how it has a strong yellow glitter flash to it.

Turned to the side, you can start to see a bit of green in the glitter (obviously not green grass in this picture... it's over 100 degrees right now!).

In the shade, you can see the light yellow base.

To show the opacity of one pass of this product, here's indoors with the flash.  You can see that it does carry quite a bit of glitter and can look very yellow/green which is a great accent color (any time, if you ask me!)


I have 27 more shades here and some of them make me DROOL, so hope you like this little new feature of me finally going through all my eyeshadow/pigments!  I'm hoping to add another spreadsheet soon to my site, so you can easily go through those as well.  :)
