essie Glamour Purse

essie Glamour Purse, 2 coats

Hello ♥ I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Today's Manicure Monday goes to essie Glamour Purse. Glamour Purse is a gorgeous and perfect fall/winter shade. It's a warm taupe-y brown creme with a hint of grey, a very beautiful neutral that's not too light and not too dark. Great for everyday and office.

essie Glamour Purse, 2 coats

Application was a breeze. It's smooth and easy to work with. With 2 thin coats, you will have this gorgeous and opaque finish. It's neutral, yet sophisticated and elegant, definitely not boring at all.

Would you wear it? What's your favorite neutral polish for fall/winter? And what's on your nail today? Comment and let me know^^ Have a great evening! ♥


L'Oreal Smoldering Plum Infallible Eye Shadow (Swatches and Review)

L'Oreal Smoldering Plum Infallible Eye Shadow 

L'Oreal infallible eye shadows were released for quite a long time (last year), and I have been passing these as I thought they might not live up to all the hypes. Couple weeks ago I did manage to pick up a couple at ULTA during their sale event (BOGO 1/2 Off + $5 Off with $10 Purchase). After playing around with these eye shadows, I was quite impressed with the color payoff as well as the lasting power.

Smoldering Plum is one of the new shades for Summer 2012. It's a rich, dark and intense blackened red toned brownish plum shade with a pretty subtle sheen/sparkle. The texture is creamy, soft and smooth. I like to use it for my outer v and sometimes along (and above) my upper lash line. I have tried it with and without eye shadow primer, either way, the color stay put for a pretty decent amount of time, at least 6-7 hours without primer and longer with primer! For application, I like to use damp brush and dip into the jar to get the eye shadow. This way there's less fallout and the color stays intense and rich even after it dries. 

L'Oreal Smoldering Plum Infallible Eye Shadow 

The jar is made out of plastic but it doesn't look cheap. I just wish there's plastic seal wrapped around so no one will dip their germy fingers at the stores trying to test out the colors... 

L'Oreal Smoldering Plum Infallible Eye Shadow 

When opened, there's a plastic press thing that you can use to compact and keep the eye shadow in place as the texture of the eye shadow is more like loose pigments, but in a compact form. They will loosen the more you use it so it is important to keep the "do not discard" plastic thing in the jar in the event you might need to re-press the eye shadow.
