I love these! I already reviewed Revlon's formula on the regular Revlon Nail Polish page, so I'll just review the scents. I have a few of these, my favorite being Bubble Gum. The scent really lasts for days! I have never had a manicure on for long enough that the scent went away. So don't buy this if you don't want to go around constantly sniffing your nails! :)
I have both Viva Glam Gaga and Viva Glam Cyndi and I love them both! I bought Gaga as soon as it came out because I am a big fan of any lipstick that is obnoxious and pink. Gaga is great paired with a smokey eye and can be applied lightly for a really pretty almost neutral look. At first, I didn't think I really wanted Cyndi because I thought it was a typical red and I already own so many red lipsticks but I went to a counter in February and they had it so I decided to go ahead and get it so I wouldn't regret not having it. I am so glad I did! It's pretty much my favorite red lipstick now because it's perfect for when you want just a sheer red lip.
Bare Escentuals eyeshadows come in a very pretty wide range of colors. As far as finishes go, almost all of the shadows are very frosty with a few mattes thrown in. If you like eyeshadows with high shimmer, these are perfect for you! I find that I get better color payoff and lasting power when I use these wet, and dry they same a little sheer. They also definitely need a sticky base and although I normally prefer Urban Decay Primer Potion, I do highly recommend getting the Bare Escentuals Prime Time Eye Primer if you plan on using a lot of these shadows. If not, a thin layer of any other sticky base (NYX Jumbo Eyeshadow pencils, etc) over your UDPP should be fine.
Funtabulous is my favorite lipgloss ever. I originally bought it to layer over Petals and Peacocks lipstick from Liberty of London collection but have fallen in love with the lipgloss on its own. It started my obsession with blue-fuchsia anything! ha ha
Wildflower
I had this quad in Wildflower which contained two pinks, a yellow, and a purple (if I remember correctly). These shadows were chalky with very little pigmentation and no matter what work arounds I tried, I could not get them to work. I was very sad because I am always looking for drugstore products to perform very well since they have seemed to be so much better lately.
