Wet N Wild H20 Proof liquid liner review
The first thing I noticed was that the applicator, which I would assume would be the same as their other liners, is not a typical felt tip or tiny brush but seems to be made of plastic. When I first tried it out it worked fine, but when I tried to create a wing I ran into some issues. Because the applicator is plastic the liner doesn't "sink into" it at all which means that it leaves gobs or liner in spots even after I try wiping off excess product. It did not make for easy application, let's just say my wing was not meant to be as big as it came out. I also had trouble making a fine point as the applicator is a little bit bulkier than normal.
To add to that, the color which I tried (Black Brown) went on kinda streaky. Once again I think this isn't helped by the plastic applicator which doesn't evenly distribute the product.
But the worst part in my opinion was that (even after waiting more than a minute) when I moved my eyelid the product did this:
And it was still entirely tacky to the touch. The one thing I cannot stand is slow drying eyeliner. As one of the final steps it can totally ruin all the work you have put into your eye makeup!
As for removal, I tried with just a makeup wipe and it was a pain in the butt so I would recommend an eye makeup remover that works well for waterproof makeup. It didn't "ball up" as some waterproof products do. I do find that the products that do "ball up" tend to wear worse (Maybelline waterproof eyeliner- I'm looking at you). I won't be testing the wear on this because I was really unhappy with the application so I probably won't be using this again. If I do then I will update later but I don't see it happening.
As to to the claims of waterproof, here is a swatch I did on the back of my hand. The top is right after it is dried, bottom is after a hard hand scrubbing and wiping dry.
Wet N Wild H20 Proof is available at most major drug stores for around $3 and is available in 4 shades (black brown, ultra black, smoky and espresso.
Would I recommend it? No

Day to night neutrals and new hair color!
Finally crawling out of bed. That flu kicked my butt! I got sick of fighting my roots and killing my hair so I decided to go with a box dye that would work over my natural roots. I used Feria Chocolate Cherry.
MAC Bare Study Paint Pot
NYC Individualeyes custom compact in Central Park
Maybelline liquid liner that I think needs replaced
Lash Blast mascara
Nars Orgasm multiple
Viva Glam Gaga 2
Avon Glazewear in a shade I can't remember but is DC (I loved it enough to buy a backup, will update color later)
Later on I went out for a friends birthday and refreshed my makeup for the night. On my lid I used UD Blunt, Chopper and Twice Baked from the Skull Shadow Box which I've had forever. I had a mix of lipsticks on, will have to update shades later (I'm not at home:)). Sorry for the funny faces, I was tired, still mildly sick and grouchy after a bad day.

Nicole Justin Bieber Collection Part 2!
Do you have Bieber Fever yet?
The first set of Justin Bieber nail polish Nicole by OPI released sold so well, they followed up with a second set! I was really impressed with the first set and I'm happy to say I am equally impressed with these. These once again contain the "perfect stroke" brush, which I have heard some people don't really like but I stand by saying I love it.
One Time Lime- In real life this is a little bit brighter- super awesome lime cream. 2 coater (but as you can see on my pathetic pinkie- there is still some slight VNL).
So, fun fact I learned from the Justin Bieber movie? His favorite color is purple. I'm not sure how much he has to do with these polishes, but there is 4 lovely purple polishes between the collection. All in all I really enjoyed the movie and it made me like him a lot more. He has more musical talent than I thought, I do actually like his voice and he seems like a sweet heart. I also think he is adorable (in a pinch-his-cheeks kinda way).
See anything you like?

MAC Viva Glam Gaga II lipstick swatches
I received my tube of Viva Glam Gaga II a few days ago, while I was in the peak of my fever. So it sat waiting for me to finally feel better. I was worried after pulling it out of the box, it is much more brown in the tube than I expected. But on the lips, it is the perfect nude. I like how much coverage this shade gives as an Amplified cream- my lips are pretty pigmented and shades like Creme D' Nude just don't work on me because of this. However, because of the high amount of coverage I would recommend prepping the lips (mine are shamefully dry after my week long flu :( ). Some find the formula a little on the dry side, I like to put a coat of balm under to help prevent this.
Closest to Revlon Soft Nude but the coverage isn't the same at all.
What do you think of Viva Glam Gaga II? Better than the first? Are you picking it up?

Colorful FOTD using Fyrinnae
Trying to get back into the groove of using color. Here is a look I threw together for Margarita Monday...which I happen to get sick during with my week long fever- ew. Looking at these photos my eyes are pretty glazed and they were so watery I should have seen it coming :( Waterproof liner is NOT waterproof enough...

Claire's Mermaid
We all do it, buy a polish you know will be much too sheer and full of disappointment. Claire's Mermaid is one of those polishes. Seen below is 4 coats, but with the blue/green hue it is just a little bit too unflattering. In bottle this is gorgeous, turquoise that lean green with pink/purple iridescent- this is a good layering polish but as I've said many times before, I hate layering.

Wet N Wild Lagoon of Envy FOTD
I have GOT to work on my titles, haha! Awhile back I grabbed all of the Wet N Wild eyeshadow singles on sale (at about $1.99 each, if you find a BOGO this is a deal from heaven) and there they sat unopened until I was searching for something to throw on. Here is what I wore to go totally fail at Bowling for Boobies :)
