Not your typical taupe

Comparison: Taupe shades

Today I have a comparison between: Sephora by OPI – Metro Chic,  Color Club – High Society, Essie – Mink Muffs and OPI – You Don’t Know Jacques (YDKJ) for you. As you can see, there are no dupes here. YDKJ and Mink Muffs are somewhere near, but Mink Muffs is a bit lighter and … Read more

I just guessed it’s nothing new and I simply hated “old” CND polishes with their slow drying time. But last month Maestra and I … Read more

Frozen Dreams is silver cream eyeshadow I mostly use as a base (over TFI of-course ) for night time MU since it’s quite shimmery. Zanzibar Fever is lovely almost matte brown eyeshadow, while Teddy is … Read more
