Pop Beauty Bright Up Your Life Eye Shadow Trio - Sugar Plum


















The three color combination palette is perfect for creating  a smoky eye. The eyeshadow promises to be long lasting and long wearing but I notice my eyes creasing and the color fading after an hour or two of use (even with a primer). The color itself came off as soft wash color instead of being strong and bold like many other makeup brands like Nars, Urban Decay, etc. The palette is more affordable, of course, but the color payout wasn't there for me.

Pop Beauty Nail Polish - Vapor

















 When I first got this nail polish at  discount store for $4, I thought I had gotten a deal. I was like..omg look at me...look at me..super thrifty spender! Until I realize it was a part of a set of 5 nail polish that depending where you look online is for under $10 and as low as $5 for the whole thing. Granted, it is a beautiful color but I feel sad that I got ripped off... *sigh*

The nail polish at first glance looks like a smokey gray but it actually has hint of mauve in it. I tried taking some photos with indoor lighting, outdoor lighting and some with the flash so you can get a picture view of this complex color. 

It has a creamy color with a shiny finish. The only thing I didn't like is that chipped fairly easy. Granted, I only did two coats one time and three the other time without a top or base coat. I am hoping with proper top and base coat it lasts more than 2 days.

Pop Beauty Glitter Must Have



Let me just say this: I LOVE GLITTER!! When I came across this set, I just had to get it. While it was a good concept, I was quite disappointed. For $15 you get an array of 12 colors, with mediocre quality like art craft glitter. The containers were very tiny. They were a bit smaller than my pinky. The glitter is loose which means you need something else to bind it [lotion, primer] to the skin otherwise it will get messy. But it can also be a good thing, because you can use the glitter for various uses, such as your hair, body, and/or face. Since there is no sifter and the applicator is very poorly designed, if the tube is not carefully handled, the whole contents of the tube can end up on the floor [talking from experience:(]. While the colors are nice, I think I'd rather skip this set next time and buy the loose glitter for beauty supplier like Ulta or Sally Beauty which has the same quality but a bigger size for less money.
