SWATCH: NYX Dark Beige

Hi ladies! How's everyone? This will be very quick, I'm a bit of in a hurry today so here's my mani.

I'm wearing NYX Dark Beige
 Pretty?

 I love it! It's neat, simple yet elegant.

NYX Dark Beige - well the name already describes the color, this is two coats but can also be done in a single coat. I just suck at applying single coats. I cant even it out! But it can be done. Its equally pretty when done in a single coat. Finished it off with Seche Vite Fast Dry Top coat. My first time too! Now I get all the hype! It's literally dry in less than a minute! 

What do you guys think?



Thanks for reading.

SWATCH: Models Own Purple Blue and NailMail!

Hi there ladies! How was your week? Hope everything's doin' great! Right now I'm going to show you something from Models Own, Purple Blue! I've been in-love with the collection ever since it launched. For me, it didn't disappoint.


My apologies. My camera wasn't working at its best.


It's a purple and blue duochrome as the name  implies. It was runny at first then a bit goopy but manageable. Took me 3 coats to achieve full coverage.




It's so pretty.

I got this bottle along with Emerald Black and Aqua Violet at the Makeupholics' booth in WTC.
Also, I got something from the mail! Thank you so much Makeupholics for this!


Milani Golden Lilac and Hot Hot Hot
Milani Golden Lilac- a sheer lavender jelly with gold shimmer
Milani Hot Hot Hot - a very bright red orange cream

 I love it! Both of them! I'll try them one of these days! Golden Lilac's perfect for toned down manis while Hot Hot Hot's perfect for an eye popping mani! Thanks a lot Makeupholics!

Well that's it for me today, thanks for reading.

SWATCH: Skittles mani of Models Own Beetlejuice, Color Club and Revlon

Hi guys! What a monday!! Its scorching hot! Right now I wish I was in Alaska, or the beach, or some place way cooler than from where I am. Anyway, yesterday I was at the WTC for the Heatwave Summer Bazaar. It was nice, there were lots and lots of makeups, polishes, clothes,etc.. Of course I was always on the lookout for polishes, and look what I found..

Models Own Purple Blue, Aqua Violet and Emerald Black


Ive been looking for these! I found it at the MakeupHOLICS booth. They have a lot to offer! From Barry M makeup, Urban Decay, Wet n Wild, Models Own, Beauty UK, Sephora, to brushes! I wish I had enough moolah to take them all home. But my budget's for the polishes. Too bad the other shades of The Beetlejuice collection weren't available but nothing to fret about, I still have 3 shades that I'm dying to swatch.

A week ago I mentioned about Revlon Naughty, 2 days before buying that, I bought Color Club Wild and Willing. I wasn't that thrilled with the color but layered over black, it had a complete transformation. I swatched all of the polishes on one hand since I was too excited to try them all.

 I wish I had more time too to swatch each shades on all 5 fingers.

 I love them all. The Models own polishes were a bit streaky and sheer, took me 3 coats to even it out, except for Emerald Black. It only took me 2 coats. For Color Club Wild and Willing, took me 2 coats to achieve this look. For Revlon Naughty, just 2 coats too. All without topcoat.


Now for the next part, its Revlon Naughty. The shade is really nice and did it live up to my expectations? Well yes and no. Yes because I love the color, the brush was ok and it took only 2 coats. No because it was a tad on the thick side, the gold shimmer was more visible with a topcoat than when its worn by itself. Overall I'm still very much in-love with it. This will save me from buying Chanel Paradoxal. =P Kidding. 


No clean-ups, too much in a hurry. My apologies.


It has a bit of bubbles, not really sure why.


Thanks for reading,

Camille :)

RANDOM: Revlon Naughty

And I thought that I can never lay my hands on you.



Saw this in SM Bicutan but was too stupid not to take it home. While I was browsing at the Revlon booth, I noticed something familiar but with a different name. Thinking that it might be a different color, I left it alone. I got home and still curiousity got the best of me. I googled Revlon naughty, and I think Im the most outdated person out there. Naughty was a re- release shade of Perplex! You can just imagine how much I wanted to punch myself in the face. It was only after two days that I got the chance to pick it up. I havent swatched it yet. I'll try tomorrow if the schedule permits. Time to rest, my next post will be much much livelier than this. Promise. - Camille - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone
