OPI Holiday In Toyland Color Collection


The holiday season is upon is, and it's time for festive color. I particularly love OPI nail polish, the colors and wonderful and for the price you can't beat it. My personal favorite picks:

Baby it's Coal Outside- An opaque black with silver sparkle.
Don't Toy With Me- A shimmery hot pink/red.
Brand New Skates- Smokey gray with sparkle.
Play 'Til Midnight- Navy blue with slight purplish shimmer.

MAC Russian Red
I am in love with this color. It is a gorgeous rich red with blue undertones. The texture is matte, but not dry. It really stayed on and didn't smudge or smear. The color went on my lips exactly how it looked in the tube. The lipstick is fab and I would recommend it to anyone.

4/4 stars

New Stuff I Want

NARS is one of my favorite beauty brands, and I can't wait to check out the new colors for Holiday 2008. Night Life is a metallic glimmering silver, and Silent Night is a Metallic glimmering gold. If they're anything like the other shadows in the Night series I am sure I won't be disappointed.

Estee Lauder Shimmering Jewel Powder
I was so excited when I saw that this was coming out for Holiday 2008. I love shimmer and think gold shimmer looks great as a highlighter; however, I was disappointed by this product. The shimmery effect is just that, an effect. Once used, the sparkly part disappears. The powder leaves a glow, but for a holiday product I wish that the shimmer was all the way through the product. I just expect more for $32.

Product Review!


Lancome Oscillation Mascara
Product claims:
battery operated oscillating brush makes lashes appear extended
and remarkably separated and multiplied.

I was unimpressed, I thought it was clumpy and I thought the smell
of the product left much to be desired. It definitely made them thick, but I thought it looked a bit costume y. With a $34 price tag, I just don't think it's worth it.
