This summer my mom and sister went to Cancún. I decided to skip it, but they decided to bring some stuff back for me. My sister insisted that I mention that she brought me this. Yes, it's Kiehl's. Yes, it's available in the States... but hey, on the back it says everything it says on the front in Spanish! Neato!

As I've mentioned before, I received six of Wet N' Wild's Color Icon Trios for review, and now I'm up to the very last of them. I liked them so much generally, though, that I've purchased a few more Wet N' Wild products from my nearby drugstore, so this isn't the last of the Wet N' Wild reviews I have planned!
As for the rest of the post, you can find it here:

As soon as I got the Vaquita collection, I new I had to do a look/FoTD, whatever with these three shadows together. I think I'm developing a little bit of a blue eyeshadow addiction, you guys!

So, I went shopping through my mom's stuff and found another polish I feel like showing you. And this one isn't a limited edition Chanel! Joy!
Sorry about the way the picture looks: like there's some nail showing through the polish. I promise that wasn't the case. I actually re-did my nails and took more pictures, but no matter how opaque the polish was in person, it wouldn't look fully opaque
in pictures. Weird!

It's time for another look in my Disney Inspired collaboration with Robyn! Hope you guys don't mind that I decided to use the occasion to try out some circle lenses I've been trying out. The review's going up tomorrow!
Getting back to the topic at hand, I hope I wasn't the only non-kid who rushed out to see Tangled in theaters (and in 3D) immediately. Seriously, tell me I wasn't the only one!
That movie had everything: An adorable lost princess, singing, a misunderstood hero (who, for once, wasn't just a total jerk), magical hair, dreams coming true, a frying pan...
For the rest of this looks, more pictures and the list of the products used, please check out the full post at http://fiercenerditude.blogspot.com/2011/08/disney-inspired-look-pascal.html

Recently, I was lucky enough to be sent a set of circle lenses for review from LensVillage.com. These are my very first pair of circle lenses. I was so excited to try them out, and all in all, I had a great experience!
First, here's some basic information about these lenses. They have 38% water content and are available from no prescription to up to -6.00. The base curve is 8.6 and the
diameter, according to the vials, is 14.5 mm. These can be worn for up to a year with proper care.

Honestly, I can't believe I haven't already reviewed this stuff. Someone actually just asked me about it by email and I searched my blog for the post that I thought I'd written. And it wasn't there. Because I'd never written it. Dang! Way to go senile at 18, Vijaya.
In any case, today I'm going to talk about my forever primer, Too Faced Shadow Insurance.

I had been looking for a good makeup remover for a long while, and (as I mentioned in my May Favorites), I really like this one!
First off, this is free of parabens, phthalates, propylene glycol, mineral oil, PABA, petrolatum, paraffin, DEA and synthetic color or fragrance. It's also cruelty free and completely vegan. All of these details is printed right on the bottle. Woohoo!
In the past,
I've found that a lot of makeup removers don't get all of my eyeliner all the way off (there's always some traces left between my lashes, and what the heck am I supposed to do about that?) With this guy? I just take a cotton pad and press it on to my lashes and all of the mascara (and the liner that gets in between the roots of the lashes) just disappears.

Recently I had the opportunity to review a newer indie company on Etsy, Sundara Cosmetics. Let's start off and say that I'm very impressed.
Okay, first lets get a quick rundown of their store done with. Sundara Cosmetics is a lovely little indie mineral makeup company that offers shadows in three sizes: full size (5 gram jar with sifter), mini size (3 gram jar with sifter) and sample size
(packaged in baggies). I've said this before and I'll say it again. I absolutely unequivocally adore the availability of mini size jars. As a girl who rarely uses shades up, they are always the more realistic option. They are priced to compete with their full sizes running $5.00 and their minis $3.00. If you buy their listed set of ten samples? They're only 50 cents each. Sweet, no?

1st Row, LtR: Amla, Cucumber Melon, Hasti, Coal & Diamonds, Mint Mojito
2nd Row, LtR: It's a Boy, Metal Princess, Rich Soil, Mocha Taupe
3rd Row, LtR: Lotus, Brinjal, Siahi
The picture above is clickable so that you can look a little closer at the labelling if you want. As promised, here are some swatches and a review of the Sundara Cosmetics colors that I've tried. I have to admit, this
review took me a long time because I couldn't figure out how to arrange these items. I just decided to go with what looks best together. Also, the swept out swatches looked near identical to the dry, patted-on swatches, so I decided to skip posting them for this review, as it's quite long to begin with. However there will be a surprise for you guys at the end of the post *winkwinknudgenudge*.
