Noting out of this World

Price was not bad for seven lippies. I didn't expect them to come on a beautiful sepecial box, bc I knew from the summer bundle that they just are packaged individually and put in a box. Chrysanthemum is very sheer pink. Looks nothing like the picture of the model lip swatch. At least mine had no gold sparks no matter how much I tried. Was streaky also. I created a similar tone to Deceased by mixing parts of Drug Lord, Virginity, Androgyny and Scorpio. Sagittarius is similar to deceased, it pulled purple on me. Pumpkin Spice is all right. Crocodile years I will wear on next year's Halloween. Checkmate to me is a mix of Anna Nicole and Redrum, which I own both. Designer Blood is a more brownish version of Unicorn Blood, mine had hardly any " golden reflects " to it. That was my favorite of the bundle.

Beautiful and non drying

Trinket is a beautiful coral mauve color. When dry I rub my lips together and there they are those gorgeous golden sparks. It stayed on for me for 12 hours even with eating and drinking. Another plus, it is not a dry feel like some liquid lipsticks. The only tiny issue is that the applicator is a bit sloppy.

Not true to Color Name

So, I went and gave a couple of tries on my Unicorn Blood Lip Ammunition. It was not grainy like the Celebrity Skin. However with 3 layers still looked very sheer and slightly streaky. I compared with some similar shades of my Urban Decay lipsticks along with the Velour Unicorn Blood and HEX and Disturbed are so much more similar in color to the Unicorn Blood Velour. So did MAC SIN. At least on hand swatches. The package is cute, but compared to similar price range lipsticks such as MAC and UD, feels a bit on the " cheappy " side. No weight on it and different quality plastic. Not very thrilled with my purchase. But thankfully I only bought Celebrity Skin and Unicorn Blood. I learned my lesson when I purchase two sets of the Summer Collection before the " sale "...

Grainy when applying

I love my Celebrity Skin on the Velour formula, so I jumped quick to buy this one. It came in looking and smelling just fine. However as I applied it felt a bit stiff, dry and grainy. The lipstick on tube looks horrible. On the lips is ok, but you can feel the grainy texture as if there is fine sand on the formula. What's up with that? Now I am worried about my Unicorn Blood I ordered the same day.

Bummed

Very bummed to have purchased several items from this collection, only to see those go half a price less than a month later. Not cool.

Eyeshadow sizes

Just received today, and am puzzled. Keep in mind that those are the size of eyeshadows. Pretty bummed at BECCA. A fan brush won't even be fit to apply those bc they are so tiny.

Colors are too bright

I love my Unicorn Blood and I'm Nude, was super excited to buy those, even though there are swatches on youtube, but it is different on everyone. For me, I am not the type that returns stuff. You can always pass it on to a friend or family member, but the colors are too bright and teenager style IMO. I loved my Watermelon Soda, and although I found it to be very liquid, I did not experience any streaking. And it lasted all day. I really am looking forward to some fall colors, I guess.
