Nails of the Week

I didn't manage to take a photo before it started to chip. Oops. I've forgotten which purple I used for the plain purple fingers, but I do know I used Etude House Help My Finger Matte top coat. For the glitter nail I applied two coats if W7 polish in 123 Moonlight, the one coat of each of Satin polish 12, a Sportsgirl purple/holographic glitter polish in a skull shaped bottle and the Face of Australia Dark Side polish in Darth Vader (shown in picture). I like the combination of simple matte nails with a glitter accent nail - its simple but pretty and fancy.

This one is old and I doubt its available anymore. My feeling towards SportsGirl makeup and other beauty products is that they are only worth getting during a decent sale. I don't think they are usually worth their full price. That being said, I don't mind this lip pencil - the colour is nice, but it's hard to sharpen and I have much better lipsticks.

This is on the more purple side of pastel pink. I've never been able to decide if I like this colour or not, and I'm not sure why - I like and wear both purples and pinks and I have very pale skin to go with the pastel colour. I don't mind this lipstick, but its certainly not worth its full price I don't think. It did do a good job for my 80s costume a few months ago, though, with a very similar coloured glitter shadow dabbed on top to create a frosted look that is very 80s.

I like this colour a lot. This is a nice medium pink that isn't too loud and could be worn easily with bright eyeshadow (as with all of the shades on this page.)

This is a very nice subtle colour. It's pretty decent for the price, and really easy to reapply. I often wear it when I want a barely-there shade.

I really like this colour, its a very nice purply-pink but the lipstick itself is very drying. I really don't think it's worth full price in Australia (about $20 I think), but it's probably worth getting on sale. I've found it feels a lot better with lip balm or moisturizing lip base underneath, but it decreases the wear time, which is usually fairly decent (if you can stand it). This lipstick doesn't really like hot coffee, it reacts and crumbles a bit but its no where near as bad as Australis Velourlips as you can just wipe the top layer off before reapplying.
