Bibbidi-bobbidi-boo

Today I bring to you Sinful Colors Cinderella, part of the new 2012 basic collection. She's a bright baby blue creme with gold and baby pink sparkle. I love the color, however, I found the formula to be a bit thin.



After a couple days of wear I wasn't ready to take it off. So I started off with some sponging with Sinful Colors Easy Going (a baby pink) and Klean Colors Gorgeous Surprise (a purple sparkle).


It was very cute and delicate, reminding me of Easter. But I still wanted to play around so I added some crackle with China Glaze Cracked Concrete. On my ring finger I wanted to try the new 'rimming' technique and used a bright navy blue from Kiss Nail Art polishes.


I wish I had a nice opaque white, I think that would have been better for the rimming. Cinderella is getting pretty popular and for now it is part of the basic collection at Walgreens for $1.99.

I've been really into the indie polish craze going on right now. On Etsy I've picked up polishes from Pretty and Polished and Dollish Polish(which is currently closed). My PnP package came in today and I'm still waiting on my DP order. The polishes are so beautiful and I can't wait to show you!!

For now here's Zombri and I modeling some Gross Out!

Tokidoki Vegas

I picked up Tokidoki Arte Palette in Vegas back in December when Sephora had their free $15 gift card special. Though I have always been a fan of the Tokidoki art work this was my first purchase for any of their product. The Vegas palette features 4 eyeshadows(Pearl White, Pearl Grey, Iridescent Purple, Pearl Dark Purple) and 1 blush(a soft mauve pink with gold sparkle) in a compact case with a mirror. The packaging reminded me of the Stila Travel Girl Palettes but instead of the packaging opening sideways it flips up.


Pearl Dark Purple, Iridescent Purple, Pearl Grey, Pearl White

Blush.
When swatching the palette with no base/primer they were very pigmented. I used this palette once with primer and I was shocked by how awful the color payoff was. The shadows were very sheer however the blush was quite pretty. Lucky for me I received mine for free because of the special but I would regret this purchase if I had paid for it. Perhaps it would make a cute gift for the younger crowd. The Vegas Palette retails for $10 at Sephora.
