Not a Liquid??? I Can't Believe It!!!! Sonia Kashuk's Gel Liner!

Sonia Kashuk's Dramatically Defining Long Wear Gel Liner is pretty darn good!  I don't wear a lot of liquid eye liners, but this one is designed to look like a liquid eyeliner but is actually a gel.  The product is very easy to apply, goes on smoothly and allows you to create very definitive lines.  

The eye liner could be a deeper black.  While it is definitely black, it is not as black as some of the black eyeliners on the market.

Revlon Colorburst Lipstick - Burst of Color and Dryness!!!

I must say, when I first started applying Revlon's Colorburst lipstick, I was feeling pretty good about it. I thought it might be comparable to MAC's Amplified Cream.  It went on smooth and creamy and simply felt great on my lips.  However, as time went on and I wore it, it just kinda felt dry on my lips and left them feeling really dry after removing the lipstick.  You would definitely need to exfoliate well before wearing this one.  So, no, I'd have to say.."not a fan!"

Nail of the Day - American Apparel's Mac Arthur Park

Ok, I cannot even begin to tell you how amazing the American Apparel polishes are! They are incredible! I have had this polish sitting on my desk as a "To-Paint" polish for the past few weeks and I am so excited to finally get to put it on! This is American Apparel's Mac Arthur Park! Isn't it amazing!? I love how bright, unique and fun this polish is! American Apparel's Mac Arthur Park is almost an acid green with a hint more dullness. It's almost like a yellow-green apple color! I know, I am not very good at describing colors! I took photos with the flash and without in hopes you guys could help me come up with a better description! This color is a smooth cream that applies beautifully with minimal clumping and a super opaque finish.

I applied Seche Base as a base coat, two coats of American Apparel Mac Arthur Park (although I probably could have done one), and Seche Vite as a top coat. What are your thoughts? Have you tried the American Apparel polishes?
