Color Club "Fly With Me" and Finger Paints "Lemon Sour"

Pin It
How are you all enjoying the new influx of makeup related posts? I know some of you must have been getting sick of seeing just nails. Today i have a fun and simple spring mani for you all using a new Color Club shade along with a Finger Paints new shade.
For this mani...
Color Club "Fly With Me"
Finger Paints "Lemon Sour"
Sally Hansen "Night Fright"
Doting tool
This mani consists of two coats of Color Club "Fly With Me" from the Spring 2012 "Take Wing" collection. On the tips i used Finger Paints "Lemon Sour" just using the brush in the polish. To top off this mani i used a large dotting tool and an opaque black for the dots connecting "Fly With Me" and "Lemon Sour."

Wet n' Wild "24 Carrot Gold" Mega Last Lip Color Swatch

Pin It
Oh check it out. Cheap lipstick swatch! Say whattt?!? Tee-hee yea, you thought i was kidding about bringing the makeup back to Kattatonic Fierceology. Today i have for you just a quick little lip stick i picked up while wasting money at Rite-Aid the other day. This is just a look at Wet n' Wild "24 Carrot."
Indoors no flash.
I was surprisingly pleases with this lip stick. For $1.99 i was kinda ready for crap. Though Wet n' Wild is know to be a bargain brand, i have rarely been too disappointed with the quality of any of their products. I feel like Wet n' Wild delivers an available, on trend product line at a reasonable cost so that their consumers can test out new trends with out great financial risk.
Check out my crooked nostrils.
"24 Carrot" or "24 Carrot Gold" is apart of the recent Mega Last Lip Color collection by Wet n' Wild. The formula of this lipstick was a little odd. It did have a great creamy feel, but it went on as a very thick creme feel. It did tug a little bit during application. On it;s own i feel i am left with dry lips though they feel creamy. I like to pair this lip stick with a gloss to smooth every thing out. Though the formula feels thick it doesn't apply as so.
I still like this lip stick a lot. You get a lot of product for a low price and very vibrant color. I'm all about pigmentation and this bargain buy delivers. You can find this lippie at Rite-Aid for around $1.99.

Essie "Navigate Her" Pepperfied

Pin It
Today i have for you two things I love. Essie "Navigate Her" more generally pistachio nail color, and frankens; my new creation "Pepperazi." 
 For this mani...
Essie "Navigate Her"
Color Club "New Bohemian"
Kattatonic "Pepperazi"
Bonita "Gold"
Essie "Navigate Her" Go Overboard 2012
This has been deemed one of my new favorite shades for the spring season. Essie "Navigate Her" is a light off minty green, more widely known as pistachio. This is two coats of the amazing formula offered in most all Essie polishes. 
 I first sponged on a bit of "New Bohemian" by Color Club, a bright blue turquoise that i don't think i have ever used before this day. In photos you can not see much of a color difference but in real life it made enough of a difference to me.
I used one coat of my very own "Pepperazi" over my now two tones green nails. Pepperazi is a black and silver glitter. Though it appears black in the bottle it spreads out and looks as it does in the photo to the left.
Finally I sponged on "Gold" by Bonita in chunky concentration on my tips. I found this overall mani to be, odd. I wasn't to crazy about the combo i created but i still love love love Navigate Her.

"Dazzled to Death" Feat: Orly "Ingenue"

Pin It
Good day lovelies! Now, i have some semi-exciting news for Kattatonic Fierceology. I know that most of you began following my blog because of the makeup, daily looks, and real life product reviews. I'm trying to get back to that. I've been wearing all my makeups again, and as soon as my skills are up to par, or at least my previous standard you'll be seeing makeup looks again mingled in with new product reviews, and of course nail looks and step by steps. One review i am psyched about coming up is the new Palette d' Antoinette from Lime Crime cosmetics that should be here very soon, if not today! For now enjoy this nail look, more makeup to come ;D Love you gals!
 For this mani...
Orly "Ingenue"
China Glaze "Side Saddle"
China Glaze "In Awe of Amber"
China Glaze "Blond Bombshell"
Sally Hansen "Glass Slipper"
This mani began with two coats of Orly "Ingenue" as a base. From there i worked in the order presented to sponge on a gradient to each nail. I of course began with the darker "Side Saddle" and followed with "In Awe of Amber."
I finished with a generous sponging of "Blond Bombshell" near the tips of each nail. I brought together all mt spongy madness with a coat of "Glass Slipper" on each nail.

"Orange Cream" Feat: Lime Crime "Macarooned"

Pin It

I promised you makeup. I am so glad to be getting back into the swing of doing my makeup on a regular basis. Every day i didn't do a look, i stared at the mountain I've dedicated to cosmetics in my room and thought to myself, what a waste. Now going back to my blog basics, I AM NO PRO. You may talk trash as it pleases your sad pathetic little heart, but if you are a decent person you will leave constructive criticism.
I love orange. Today i have for you a rather "toned down" look according to my typical "outrageous" standard. For this look today I used only three shadows.
I began by using Lime Crime "Macarooned" all over my lid. The application of this shadow was weird, but i believe it was only weird because i did not use a white base and my primer was acting a little funky this day.
 For the "crease" area, the bright orange, i used Sugarpill "Flamepoint" you know, the best orange in the world. Also from Sugarpill in this look, on my lower lash line i used "Buttercupcake"
I finished off this simple look with a healthy dose of Maybelline "Colossal Lash" mascara.
Products used for this look.
Lime Crime "Pallet 'd Antoinette"
Sugarpill "Burning Heart Pallet"
NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil "Straberry Milk"
Maybelline "Colossal Volume" mascara

"Muted" Feat: Sally Hansen "Lacey Lilac"

Pin It
Good day lovelies. I do help you are doing well. Today i have for you a rather muted look that still has a fun flare. I think this would be a good mani for the workplace, or anywhere you want not to be to obnoxious with your nails.
For this mani...
Sally Hansen "Lacey Lilac"
Finger Paints "Pretty as a Portrait"
Orly "Mirror Mirror"
Orly "Twilight"
 Sally Hansen "Lacey Lilac" Xtreme Wear
I began with two beautifully creamy coats of this perfect purple. Lacey Lilac, along with many others in the Xtreme Wear line. The formula on these are perfection, and the price is penny pinching awesome (under $3.) My nails were kinda jacked up when i did this mani, hence the lumps and bumps on my thumb and pinky fingers.
Finger Paints "Pretty as a Portrait" Core
With the brush from this bottle i covered less than half of my nail diagonally. I loved this polish for layering over another because of the opacity and shiny creme formula. The sheen is obviously brighter and sets it a level up from Lacey Lilac. With a dotting tool i made an average of three dots along the diagonal half.
Orly "Mirror Mirror"
I bet looking at this photo you're all like, oh,...what changed? I added yet another diagonal layer of Mirror Mirror. This polish is freeking rad. Formula is A+, opacity A+, color is A+. It's straight gray. I never thought i'd buy a gray polish, or even use this more than once, but i love Mirror Mirror. I've fallen for weird nail color like this and grays and kind of a favorite of mine.
Orly "Twilight" Holiday 2011
For whatever reason i'm not holding Twilight in these photos, I'm sure you can live with this. The final step for this mani was to coat it all with a shimmer top coat. Twilight is a silver shimmer top coat that i like to use in conjunction with blues and purples. I think the silver adds a little something extra that would never shine with out it.

Lime Crime "Palette d' Antoinette" Sneak Peak

Pin It
Hello everyone! I'm so excited right now. I just bought my ticket to this year's Electric Daisy Carnival in Las Vegas this June. It's a three day music festival like no other, and will be my first "rave." I'm so excited. I also have for you today a peak at my first Lime Crime order!
I ordered the new "Palette d' Antoinette" and the "Sweet Antoinette" lipstick trio.
I have so far only tried two shades out of this pallet but am thus far pleased with the over all quality. With Lime Crime you are paying for packaging. My experience so far has led me to believe that Lime crime does produce a quality product, but is slightly overpriced compared to competitors dues to their elaborate packaging. However, that is Lime Crime's deal, they sell cute and fantastic. Honestly i'm. still very happy with my order
Out side of the pallet.

Each photo is taken on the shade on the left, and in the sun on the right.
Royal Flush – pastel pink (matte)

Absinthe-Minded – light green (matte)
Macarooned – peach (matte)

Ribbonesque – lavender (matte)

Mercurious – metallic silver (sparkle)
You can buy this pallet HERE

On to the lip sticks! As mentioned be fore i purchased the "Sweet Antoinette" lip stick trio. This trio contained "Great Pink Planet," "Coquette," and "Countessa Florescent"
 Of course the purple unicorn lipstick tubes from Lime Crime are a big selling point, but i was also very pleased with the quality of the product. Each lip stick applied smoothy with a delicious vanilla creme finish. The scent is not over powering but rather a reduced vanilla that disperses and disappears over time. I have experienced various wear times with each of these, but each has lasted well into over three hours before i had to re-apply. "Coquette" has become my favorite out of the trio, though "Countessa Fluorescent" is an automatic love due to its close similarity to MAC "Candy Yum Yum"
  "Coquette"

All the products i have shown you today are Vegan and Cruelty free. My overall first impression with Lime Crime Cosmetics still stands as a good one. The product portion sizes are a little small for the price, but Lime Crime is known to be kind of a novelty company due to the up-kept unicorn and fantasy theme. I am currently fulling enjoying every product of my purchase and will have swatches soon <3
