The Real Housewives of Tudor Dynasty by Rescue Beauty Lounge

Today's swatches and review is totally drool-worthy. I have for you Rescue Beauty Lounge's The Real Housewives of Tudor Dynasty!! Four gorgeous shades inspired by the Tudor dynasty



Catherine is a smokey purple with gold, bright blue, fuchsia shimmer.


Anne is a smokey gray olive green with gold and pink shimmers


Jane is a a gray pearl with slight hints of gold and pink shimmer. The shimmers are not as noticeable on your nails than on the bottle. Sorry I didn't get to take a picture of this one in sunlight


Catherine H is a Wedgewood blue hue with pink and gold flecks.

All of these look different in different lighting. Under direct sunlight the flecks and shimmers show up pretty well. But if you're indoors it looks like your typical shimmers; however if you stare at it for awhile you'll notice the gorgeous gold and pink shimmers.

These were very opaque. All were done under two coats and a top coat. I had no problems with the applications, it was very smooth. Well worth $18 (in this case $72 for 4) out of my wallet. I love spending my money on polishes that are worth it.

My favorites would have to be Catherine H and Catherine. I like Anne too but Jane didn't really put much WOW for me.

Well that is all I have for today!

Four New Sally Hansen for Fall 2010

Today I have four new Sally Hansen polishes for the Fall. I only chose the four that appealed to me most. And I'm loving all of them.


Evening Fog is a nude beige with gray undertones. Can safely say this is a greige but it's more beige than gray


Golden Ticket is a orange copper glitter. This one is my favorite. It was fully opaque in 2 coats but I did 3 for more depth


Sequin Scandal is a dark murky olive green shimmer. It's close to brown without sunlight but I love the shimmer


Fedora is a tan creme with silver flecks of silver shimmer. You can barely tell there's silver shimmer on the nail, but it's noticeable on the bottle

The application for these were good, not bad. I had a little problem with Fedora because the brush was a little mess up but other than that its fine.

So that's all I have for today!

MAC Fall Trend F/W 2010



Greetings all! Today I have the MAC Fall Trend for Fall and Winter collection by Jin Soon. I can tell you right now that when I received my order I was disappointed just by looking at the bottles. But to my surprise this collection is actually gorgeous. Six gorgeous shimmers packed with a lot of flecks. The colors weren't disappointing either, although some colors weren't at all unique.

These are still available at the MAC website for $13 each. And before I show you my swatches, I have to say their formula improved for this collection. It applied perfectly, and fully opaque in two coats. It wasn't thick or thin, but in between. I don't regret buying all of them after all lol


Rain of Flowers is a plum purple base with blue and purple flecks


Ming Blue is a true blue packed with turquoise and blue fleck shimmers. Looking at the bottle it looked darker than I expected. Once applied on the nails it came out to a beautiful blue.


Jade Dragon is an emerald green with green and silver flecks


Imperial Flower is a bright orange shimmer with gold flecks


Earthly Harmony is a gray beige with gold flecks. The gold flecks are hardly noticeable on the nails though


Concubine is a dark red shimmer packed with red and gold flecks. This one took me by surprise. I was expecting a boring red but it was actually a darker shade of red. It looked perfect for the fall.

So there you have it. Would any of you be buying these? Or if you already did, which one is your favorite? I have to say Ming Blue, Jade Dragon, Earthly Harmony, and Concubine are my favorites. I like Imperial Flower but oranges doesn't look that great on my skin tone. Rain of Flowers I've seen a lot of similar ones so it didn't really impress me all that much.

That is all I have for today!

China Glaze Vintage Vixen Collection

Hi all! Today I finally have the China Glaze Vintage Vixen collection to show. During my weeks of swatching there was absolutely no sun at all, therefore all pictures were taken under artificial light (which I pretty much prefer since its most color accurate)

I'm so glad to finally swatch fall collections because I'm loving all the fall colors as I'm a little "sick" of the summer colors. As we all know that's just temporary xD

On with the swatches!


Swing Baby - a silver/gold shimmer with foil finish. Very bling like


Riveter Rouge - a strong golden red shimmer


Midnight Mission - dark blue shimmer, has silver flecks


Jitterbug - a light charcoal silver foil. Has a little blue and a little purple in it. But mostly silver.


Ingrid - chocolatey taupe with silver flecks of shimmer. LOVE


Hey Doll - a bronzey brown shimmer


Goin' My Way - golden brown shimmer. A little close to bronze but more brown toned.


Foxy - a fire red bronze shimmer


First Class Ticket - dark purple shimmer. Picture shows a little more blue than purple.


Emerald Fitzgerald - a dark green/teal shimmer


Classic Camel - mustardy beige with golden shimmers. LOVE


Bogie - a sort of an eggplant purple metallic ish.

I love this collection. The colors are great for fall. And their formula was good. Some were a little leaky but not too much. My favorite is Classic Camel and Ingrid.

I'm looking forward to their 'Tis the Season to be Naughty And Nice collection. Though not much colors interest me there. I need to see more swatches before I'm convinced to buy the whole collection. Though I'm really interested in that peppermint cuticle oil. I might even buy two sets just so I can get that peppermint oil lol

Well that's all I have for today. I have a few hours to spare before I head to class, time to relax :) Enjoy your Sunday guys! And for those who have Columbus Day off, enjoy that as well!
