Metalluscious - Empress
A few days ago I wrote about some Mark products I received. You can read that post by clicking here. Anyhoo, I mentioned that I thought that the Metalluscious in Empress was too dark. Below are some photos of me wearing it. Ladies, what do you think? Please share your thoughts.

NYX Cosmetics - Preview
It's always fun to find out about new or soon-to-be-released products, don't you think? Naturally! Well, here's a preview of some products by NYX Cosmetics that have yet to be released. I'm most excited about the lipstick. In 96 colors, there should be something for most everyone. Perhaps I'll find my perfect red lippy after all!

Burt's Bees Lip Shimmers
Yup. I bought yet another lip shimmer. I just can't resist the smooth lightweight feel, the soothing lip balm base, or the cooling tingle of refreshing mint. Not to mention the various pretty colors. Speaking of colors, this time I had my eye on the "Toffee" color. It's a soft, slightly silvery taupe color, very pretty!

Quest for the True Red Lippy
I've been on a quest for the perfect true red lipstick for awhile now. I know that even if it says "true red" it's still going to have varying undertones. With that in mind, I'd prefer that mine errs on the side of cool tones, rather than warm (blue undertone, rather than orange), since I'm a winter. Ladies, have you found a great (cool-toned & budget friendly) red lipstick, & if you have, where did you find it? I'd appreciate your input!
