Review: Ardency Inn PUNKER World's Baddest Eyeliner

Press Sample

Oh darlings have you heard of the eyeliner Punker from Ardency Inn?  They hit the shelves at Sephora back in February and you could find them in the featured eyeliner section.  A while ago they were kind enough to send me one for review purposes.  I have been messing around with it to see how well it would last.

Ardency Inn is a new company that is deeply rooted in the downtown music scene over in New York.  They are aiming to put the power of makeup artisty into the hands of every woman.    Later on this year they will be releasing a full line of color cosmetics in Fall.  So keep an eye out on that!

So guess who is the Director of Artistry & Education for Ardency Inn!  James FREAKIN' Vincent!!  He has such creativity!!

PUNKER makes it easy for anyone to take their look from boring to bold with one slash across the lash line.  It literally takes the fear out of applying liquid liner.  Keep it simple and sexy with a cat eye or create dramatic shapes of your own that let everyone know you're not a girl to mess with.  - James Vincent

Review: Star Crushed Minerals' Blushes - Light Primrose, Peachy Sheen, Mauve-o-lous

Press Sample

Today I have some blushes to show you from my gal Edith's shop, Star Crushed Minerals, which was sent to me for review purposes.  She created Star Crushed Minerals based upon her past experience with cosmetics.  She wanted something more natural and healthy instead of having high end cosmetics.  And let me tell you, her products are fabulous and I have not broken into pimples since using them.

The top jar is Light Primrose, and the bottom two (left to right) is Perfectly Peach and Mauve-o-lous.  These are sample sizes which contain 1g of product.  Can you believe that all her samples come in jars AND sifters?!  Honestly love that it comes like that instead of the typical ziploc bags.  As most of you know are a pain at times!  Her full size carries 2.5g of product.

I received samples of seven loose eyeshadows: Mystic Tome, Ruby Wings, Spearmint Candy, Sun Crystal, Haunt, Incantation, and Phantasm; and a blush: Duskwing.  Each sample goes for $1.10AUS and is about 1/8 tsp in a zip lock bag.  And all of the samples you order be it blush, foundation, or eyeshadow will be free shipping.

Today I have this lovely glitter polish to show you that I received from Cosmetic Love for review purposes.      It is Missha's The Style Lucid Nail Polish Dazzling in Style #3.  Cosmetic Love is a Korean based online shop that sells a bunch of Asian cosmetics!  They carry various products from nail polish to BB creams to eyeliners to lipstick.  Their site even carries skin care products and items for men as well.  Just to list a few big name Asian Brands:  TonyMoly, Skin79, Missha, Etude House, and the list goes on.  Their website is very easy to navigate through.  If you order from them you will receive samples as gifts.  So say you order 1 product you get 2 samples.  You order three items you get two samples, a nose pack, and a mask pack.  They are at random of course, but its a great way into trying new products!

Today I have a very special nail polish to share with you from my girl's shop, Ooh La Lacquer.  It is called Princess Nylah, and a latest addition to her polish line.  This will be released later on today, along with some other new polishes.

The reason why this gorgeous glitter packed nail polish is a very special one is because Nastassia named it after her little diva god-daughter.  How sweet is that?

Review: BA Star Holo Silver Glitter & Glue Liquid Base

Product Sample

Today I would like to share with you these two interesting BA Star products, that I received from BrandBacker for review purposes.  BA Star is a company that focuses upon cheerleaders, competitors, dancers and such.  They carry a wide range of products: glitters, stickers, eyeshadow, headbands etc.  Perfect for those who are cheerleaders.

The items I received were:

• Holo Silver Glue $8.75 
• Glue Liquid Base $8.75

The glue liquid base comes in a lipgloss like tube and the applicator has a doe sponged.  The glue reminds me of Elmers glue.  It holds up against sweat and holds on to the glitter and eyeshadow well.  

The holo silver glitter is made of fine holo silver glitter.  That at angles looks turquoise.  This was designed for body and face.  The jar seems over packed and could be a bit messy when opening it.  It would of been nice  if a sifter was included upon it.

I ended up doing a heart and left it on my arm as I went out to see if it would come off in this Southern California heat.  It didn't have any fallouts while I was out and stayed pretty well.  There might be touch ups if you over sweat a lot.

BA Star was even kind enough to give you lovely readers a 50% off these products by entering the code "BBGLITZ".  So make sure to check them out when you can.

What do you think about glitter?  Have you tried one of BA Star's products before?
