Sula Eyeshadow Review:
These shadows had a nice, soft, velvety texture that I liked. It did swatch a bit crumbly because of how soft they are, but I usually apply my shadows with makeup brushes anyway and they apply much smoother that way.

The pigmentation of these was on the soft side, except for the shade Hard To Be Good - which happens to be the shade I like the best. Great for regular shadow use, or even as a liner!

I'd recommend checking them out.

Sula Nail Polish & Mini Set Review:
Sula's Paint & Peel polishes are popular because they're water based and peel off; no need for polish remover! I'm not a huge fan of the fact they peel off, but I would use polish remover anyway. Some people love to peel off their polish, so this is a great option for them specifically.

Out of the shades I showed you in this post, the blue from the mini set is my favorite. They're all great shades that I would wear.

After you apply this polish wait 10 minutes for it to dry and then avoid water for an hour to get the most wear from the Paint & Peel polish line.

Sula Natural Lip Gloss in Conditional Love, Against All Odds, Fair Game - swatches, pics, review

Hello, Beautiful!

I have another product from Sula's Spring 2012 Playfully Pretty collection. In this post I'll show you three shades of their Natural Lip Gloss: Conditional Love, Against All Odds, and Fair Game. My favorite of the three is Against All Odds, but what I think I love most about all three is they are non-shimmer glosses. Even though I'm a shimmer & glitter addict, sometimes I want my eyes to be glittery and keep my lips simple, so these glosses are a perfect choice when I want to do that. If you've ever wanted to try a purple gloss, then Fair Game is a great choice for you because it's very sheer, yet will give your lips a tint of purple.

Sula Natural Lip Gloss Review:
These lip glosses gave my lips a nice sheer wash of color with pretty shine. They have a cherry scent, or at least I think it's cherry. I liked the way they smelled. They went on very smooth and felt comfortable and non-sticky on my lips.

Out of the three shades I have, Against All Odds is my favorite but I do like all three. They are great to wear on their own or over other lip products.

Overall, yes, I'd recommend these!
