Sixteen92 Halloween 2015


Today we're going to get into the Halloween part of this quarter's Circle release... because that's the bag I opened first.  The theme for these five perfumes is famous witches and goddesses of witchcraft.  Very appropriate inspiration for Halloween.  And also because I still maintain that Claire is so good at Perfuming because of Witchcraft.


Unless you're in the Illuminati like Smelly Yeti, I suppose.

Life's Entropy Matte Lip Theories



Life's Entropy recently reopened with a new line of Matte Lip Theories and two new eye shadows.  As soon as these were announced, I knew they would be mine.  I picked up Variable, DNE, and Fractal.




l to r: DNE, Variable, and Fractal



I really like these.  The formula is very liquidy, but dries to a light feeling formula on my lips.  Fractal felt a bit dry on my lips, but I'm not sure if it was just Fractal's formula or the fact that it was the last one I swatched and my lips were like "no more please and thank you!".  These are, maybe not kiss proof, but certainly kiss resistant.  Variable and DNE didn't come off at all when I kissed my hand and Son #2 while Fractal kissed off a little.  Despite kissing off, Fractal wore very well: I left it on after I finished swatching for another 4 hours through dinner, coffee, and good night kisses.  It didn't come off until I took it off with mineral oil, and it didn't stain as much as I thought it would.  It took a pass of a mineral oil soaked cotton ball and a bit of exfoliation with a microfiber rag (which I do every night anyway), but when I finished all traces of it were gone.  Now, with that said, on to the swatches!

sixteen92 Birthday Collection


Y'all already know, I'm a giant sixteen92 stan.  Of course I was gonna be all over the birthday collection.  And bonus, it's cake!  Who doesn't love cake?  Bad people, that's who.  I decided to pick up a sample pack of all five of the offered scents, along with the new Supernatural Hair Serum and Detangling Spray.
