BareMinerals READY Eyeshadow 8.0 - The Playlist

Today I am going to do a review of bareMinerals READY 8.0 in The Playlist . When you open the box, you get the compact with the shadows and a small booklet which gives you some information about the product and ideas for a few looks. The packaging is a gold compact with bareMinerals on the front and a sticker on the back with the colors on the back. You also receive a small double ended brush.

Swatches

Top - Pumped, Chart Topper, Max Volume, Louder

Bottom - One Hit Wonder, Most Requested, Remix, Speaker Box
all swatched over bare skin - no primer

Pumped is cocoa brown with gold glitter. Chart Topper is shimmery light gold. Max Volume is blackened navy sheen. Louder is copper. One Hit Wonder is butter cream sheen. Most Requested is cranberry with red or gold glitter. Remix is shimmery yellow gold. Speaker Box is dark grey with gold glitter.

These shadows are very silky and smooth. Similar to the Top Shelf duo just lightly swatching them a little goes a long way and the color pay off is great.

Have you picked up any of the bareMinerals READY eyeshadows? Are you thinking about it? What others would you suggest I pick up?

Quick FOTD

Tonight I am going to see Dennis Lehane speak and then go out for tea. I just did a quick look inspired by some looks I have seen Killer Colors show on her blog. You should check her out also, she is amazing.

I only used two products for this look. I am wearing Urban Decay Toasted all over my lid and NARS Barbarella on my lips.

Target Haul

I recently went to Target to buy some basic house stuff when I was suddenly distracted by all the glittery ELF products on the end cap. I picked up quite a bit, none of which I needed. I rationalized it by how cheap everything was. I ended picking up a blush brush, a set of duos, the ultimate eyeshdow palette, eyeshadow palette with 32 warm colors, everyday eye palette and natural eye palette.

Are you picking up anything special (makeup or otherwise) for the holidays?

Wet N Wild Comfort Zone

Today I am going to show you some swatches of Wet N Wild's Comfort Zone Palette. This palette contains 8 colors that you can use to create a variety of looks. As always the colors are labels with the suggested place to used them: browbone, eyelid, crease, definer.

I really enjoyed swatching these and actually did a quick look with this as soon as I got it home. The colors are nice, all work together, and will work for almost anyone. I like that there are some with glitter, for when you want a little something extra, and some without for a more natural look.

Do you have this palette? What do you think about it?

Wet N Wild Silent Treatement

Today I just want to share a quick review of Wet N Wild's Silent Treatment palette. I picked this up on a whim at Ulta the last time I went. There are three coordinating colors labeled with a suggested way to wear them together.

What do you think of these Wet N Wild palettes? Which one is your favorite?

Ulta Haul

I stopped at Ulta on my adventure to pick up some fish food. I had a list of things in mind, so there were not too many impulse buys which is all too easy for me.

First I finally found Revlon Royal nail polish. I couldn't find it anywhere and had been looking for months! I also picked up two polishes from China Glaze's Metro collection: CG in the City and Trendsetter. I was looking for Orly's Fowl Play, but those seemed to be all gone.

I also picked up Too Faced Absolutely Invisible Candlelight Powder and Urban Decay Sparkling Lickable Body Powder in Marshmallow.

I impulsively picked up two Wet N Wild palettes that I had been interested in trying. The first is Silent Treatment and the other is Comfort Zone.

Just a heads up for everyone, Urban Decay is having their Friends and Family sale right now. It is going on until Nov 5th. You get 20% off using code: FFHOLIDAY11.

Are you picking anything up from this or are you going to sit this one out?
