RIP Sheer Natural

This is a nightmare comes true.

When I work on a post, there are always a dozen of polishes on my perpetually chaotic desk. You can imagine the numerous near-fatal incidents in this accident-prone set up. I was lucky, maybe just too lucky, until today. I wanted to drink some water so I reached for my mug somewhere in the midland, and then it knocked on the dozen polishes. And I was able to save them!! Amazing, wasn't it? If it was, this post would not have appeared at all.

I tried to put them back up, and one of them didn't want to stand up straight, instead it slipped from my fingers and dropped on the floor and shattered. Wow, an $18 polish dropped dead in front of me, definitely an once in a life time experience! Oh, did I mention I haven't use it yet, not even swatched?

In the middle of the little pool of polish, there was a glass splinter holding some polish, not much, just enough for a swatch. Thank you, at least I get to have a swatch!

It is a mess, but be nice! I just suffered a loss and I was not in the mood for perfect pictures (like I had taken perfect pictures!)


It is a yellowish nude creme. Application was good, not streaky at all but it was too sheer. I used 4 coats here but still not able to cover completely.

To be honest, it is not a flattering color, like you have some badly stained nails. Quite disgusting. But I think it can make a good mannequin color when layered with some taupes or nudes, to match with the yellow undertone of Asian skin. I'm not able to test it out though.

I am a little bit depressed right now (and I have to clean up the crime scene), so that's all for today.

Package Freak



9 turquoise boxes. They are all you going to see today because I am a package freak.

I keep all boxes cosmetics come in with. Moisturizers, serum, foundations, eye shadows, all of them. They sit gracefully inside their boxes until one day I get too annoyed taking them out and putting back in, and then I throw the innocent boxes away.

I will have my moment staring at these adorable boxes, swatching can wait.

Slap me in the face, please!

I am seriously considering moving to a cave. Making fire with woods, eating meat raw. Who needs internet? Internet is evil, full of evil sale news. I definitely don't need it, not after what I have done last night.



Sure you all heard about this. I read that most of you stayed real calm, obviously I was not. 9 beautiful polishes are on their way. Oh did I mention that my yet another massive transdesign order is sailing somewhere in the Pacific Ocean too? The BF is not going to be happy about it.
