Fusion of Color Swatches and Review

*Products received in exchange for my honest review*

Hi all! Again, it's been a while. I hope you are all doing well. Today I have a new to me brand called Fusion of Color to share with you. I was recently given the opportunity to try some products from their new Spring line. I chose 2 eyeshadows, a highlighter, a blush, a lip gloss and a matte lippy. Let's get to the swatches shall we?

Highlighter in Bare Skin, blush in Kissed By The Sun

Eyeshadows in Chablis and Starfish

Sassy lip gloss in Tease, matte lipstick in Edgy

These colors are absolutely gorgeous. The eyeshadows are pigmented, creamy and super blendable. They lasted all day over a primer and looked just as good after 8 hours of wear as when I applied them in the morning. The blush and highlighter had the same texture and were very buildable so you can easily control the intensity of color. The lipstick felt a bit dry while applying but once it was on it didn't make my lips feel dry at all; it actually felt fairly moisturizing and stayed on for a good 6 hours. The gloss is the only thing I haven't wear tested but I tried it on and it had the perfect consistency; not too much slip (I hate that) and not super sticky. 

If you haven't tried Fusion of Color yet I highly recommend that you do. You can find them here. They have an amazing array of colors and are very reasonably priced. I look forward to trying more products in the future.

Wet 'n Wild Fantasy Makers Mini-Haul

Hello again! I'm back with a post of something I actually haven't written about before...makeup! Or, to be more precise, lipgloss.

I was at CVS a while back to pick up a prescription. But of course, being me, I can't just walk to the pharmacy and back out again...I have to make a little side trip through the cosmetics section. As usual I didn't have a lot of extra money to spend but I had $5.50 worth of extra care bucks (or whatever the heck they are called) burning a hole in my wallet. After a disappointing walk-through I walked by an endcap that make my jaw drop. They actually had a whole endcap completely devoted to the Wet 'n Wild Fantasy Makers collection! And it was completely stocked! And it had a big yellow sign that said it was BOGO! How did I get so lucky? I don't know but I quickly took advantage of the situation. This is what I ended up grabbing:

Between my extra care bucks and the BOGO deal I got all of these lovelies for $1.50! I know right? I was pretty damn excited I tell ya. And here are the 3 glosses swatched in sunlight. I tried to capture the holo goodness in these babies because it is super pretty.

L-R: Snow White, Queen Of Hearts, Wicked Witch

 

And here they are on me. Looking at these pics I'm thinking maybe I should have smiled a bit or something? I'm not used to doing makeup pics yet so bear with me...

 Snow White is something I would definitely wear layered over something else to give it a bit of sparkle.

 I'm still a bit gun shy when it comes to red lippies so Queen of Hearts is a perfect way to ease my way into wearing it. I love the holo sparkle to it! (It kinda looks like I have a smear of it above my lip but I don't remember seeing it at the time...huh...)

Wicked Witch will probably only get love on Halloween. As I work in the medical field, it is definitely not work-appropriate and I am definitely gun shy about wearing black lippies. I really love it though!

These are definitely awesome glosses for the price ($1.99). I don't like glosses that are too slippery or too thick....I like a consistency somewhere in the middle and these fit the bill. I actually think I'll get quite a bit of wear out of Queen of Hearts and I will bust out Wicked Witch on Halloween for sure. I have an idea for a cool eye look to go with it. If it turns out the way I envision it, I'll show you guys some pics.
