Starlight Polish Mythological Wishes Collection
 |
| PRESS SAMPLES sent in exchange for my honest review |
Starlight and Sparkles has sent me 6 beautiful new toppers to review. The Mythological Wishes collection consists of six toppers with combined color shifting shimmer and multichrome glitter! The shimmer in these are unicorn pee and UP sibling pigments. On the Starlight and Sparkles website, purchasing four or more bottles of polish from the Mythological line in a single order will give a discount of 3.5% on all Mythological polishes in the order, which will be reflected in the cart as "Mythological line discount." That includes a lot more than just this collection, there are many offshoots of the Mythological line. Issa has nicknamed each unicorn pee shimmer after a mythological creature so it's easy to find the ones you like and the "Wishes" part refers to this chroma flair type glitter. These were used several years ago by a few different makers and Issa has been hoarding some for a while. Anyone remember Ninja's Facets collection? Mythological Wishes aren't meant to be dupes, they differ formula wise and in the balance of glitter and shimmer. Issa wanted these to be unicorn pee toppers accented by glitter, not equal parts. There were only 3 facets but those do have counterparts here. This is really exciting news to those of us who have been lemming those polishes, it's a nice opportunity for collectors to grab a similar backup for a beloved rare and discontinued and a different formula for those with a preference for Starlight's ready to use formula.
Colourpop Villians, partial collection
These are my picks from the Colourpop Disney Villians collection. The packaging is fun and there are a few unique things here. This collection is considered l.e., do what you will with that information. Colourpop is like The Force, nothing is ever really gone. Lol
This is mostly just swatches and packaging photos, I'll do a post with looks later. Photos all taken in natural light unless stated otherwise.

Some of these photos aren't as in focus as I would like, taken in a rush in the car. We went to a show with my grandparents for their 54th wedding anniversary. My grandma loved my shifty eyeshadow. She's super cool and stylish, I make her pressed shadows and she likes multichrome nail polish so she ain't no grannie.

My skin does not look nice here but I did enjoy this look all the same. This is several hours after doing my makeup and I have decided that Dr.Jart Tiger Grass cream does not work with my makeup, I now use it when I'm not doing any foundation.
