China Glaze Poolside Collection Swatches and Review

March 12, 2010 by admin  
Filed under China Glaze, Swatches

I love neons. I think because I was born in January my sign gravitates me to bright shiny things and bright neon colors. Needless to say, like many, I have  a short attention span and I will stop paying attention if something bright catches my eye :P

Available April 2010 but you may see them appear online in March.

Distributors that sell China Glaze at great prices.

Beauty From The Earth Swatches

I wrote this post before seeing their latest twitter. I am going to leave this up.

My heart and prayers goes out to Crystal’s family. I will leave this post up because I am sure that any purchases made will contribute to any financial responsibilities that are needed. But I am going to take any other sad words off line since I want it to remain private. XO Elessa

Beauty from the Earth mineral shadows have been one of my favorite mineral shadows for a long time. I’ve known the Crystal for over 3 years and she has been always super kind and supportive of vloggers. She was one of the first supporters and did a huge giveaway for pursebuzz.com back in early 2007. I am so happy that at the recent visit to TMS we were FINALLY able to meet  in person.

She gave me this bag with a bunch of samples to try out and have some fun. Since I was doing that I figured I’d snap some pics while I was at it.

I am going to do a full review tomorrow. It took ages to do swatches but I did pick out my super faves. I am gonna do some quick looks too <3

The ones I picked out are extremely unique and I think you will like them too :)
