Heidi D. Cosmetics Lip Gloss Swatches

Heidi D. Cosmetics recently launched their new line of lip glosses: The Bossy Collection. These lip glosses are a mixture of lipstick and lip gloss, which allows them to be creamy with a bit more color than the average gloss. The formula is loaded with Vitamin D in order to prevent stickiness and to leave lips moist. Most of you know I hate sticky lip glosses, so the non-stickiness is a huge plus for me.

Today I'm featuring swatches of the Bossy Collection in Pink Kitty as well as an original Lip Gloss Wands in Kiss the Bride. (It's a picture heavy post!)

Lime Crime Carousel Gloss Review and Swatches - Candy Apple

Lime Crime Makeup Carousel Gloss in Candy Apple ($17)

Lime Crime Makeup has long been known for the vibrant colors of their makeup, so when they came out with their Carousel Gloss, I knew I had to try one for myself. My first impression of the Carousel Gloss was that the packaging is absolutely gorgeous! I don't think my picture does it justice, but the bright and fine glitters create such a shine when you swirl the gloss around. Carousel is truly the correct name for this product. The color of the lip gloss itself is vibrant and pigmented, so I don't need to pair it with a lipstick at all.

Nvey Eco Eye Shadow and Lip Lustre Review and Swatches

Nvey Eco is a certified organic makeup brand. As I've always been a huge fan of Nvey, I was really excited to have the opportunity to review some of their products. I bought their Erase Corrector a few years back and it remains the only concealer I've ever hit pan with. It conceals amazingly, covering blemishes and even bruises. But on to the review at hand...

Nvey Organic Eye Shadows without the pot. (Full size single compact costs $25.00/each)

Nvey Organic Eye Shadows in Pale Silver White (161),  and Espresso (155), Copper Bronze (158)

Finely milled with an extra soft base of corn silk and jojoba oil, these Nvey eyeshadows also contain chamomile, vitamins A, C, and E to make for a smooth and soft formula that is excellent for dry and sensitive skin. The eyeshadows are vibrant, very smooth, definitely not dry or cakey, and amazingly pigmented. The lasting power without primer is average for a high end shadow but easily lasts 10+ hours with a primer.

The pictures on the website really don't match the actual color very well, so be careful if choosing your shadows online. Copper Bronze has a slight olive tone in real life.

I adore these eye shadows, but find that at $25 a piece, the eye shadow singles are very expensive. If you want to try Nvey shadows, I would recommend getting the Eye Shadow Palette, which contains 5 eye shadows for just $63. It's still not cheap, but significantly less costly.

Nvey Hydrating Lip Lustre in Temptress ($25)

The hydrating lip lustre is a dual purpose lip color and moisturizer, enriched with organic elements and orange essential oil. It is non-drying and long-lasting. I used to own this lip lustre in the exact shade (Temptress), but it seems the formulation or coloring has changed a bit. I quite like the change because the color seems really vibrant.

Nvey has also generously offered my readers and followers a discount code for 15% off any full-size product or tools: HMR15 (expires September 22, 2011).
