Heatherette Review

So after seeing leaked pics and product info from Ebay and Specktra.net. My bar from this collection went from Hot to tepid.
#1. I noticed that there were little to know swatches of the pinks on members of darker tones and #2. The product descriptions were waaay off from what the actual product looks like.
I do however love the packaging. Campy, 80's and reminds me that my hair looks fierce!

Though Hollywood nights, Fleshpot and Lollipop Loving does not work for NW 45 ( or atleast for me). Sock Hop has come away as a great lipglass for pigmented lips! Its creamy coral and I can wear it along or with a lip conditioner and it looks everyday as opposed to "candy coated fuschia weekend".

I have Smooth Harmony Beauty Powder from the Diana Collection and use it regularly. It should go in a vault for safe keeping. Alpha girl was an ashy pink on my cheeks so I passed.

NightHawk/Front Row duo pencil is a dream in 1. Its neutral and a spin on the the coveted smoky eye. How about beige glitter on the lid and dark brown as a liner and a crease?

Though I am majorly disappointed, I did like this collection 3x better than Fafi.
On a scale of High Tea, Ornamentalism and Diana ( my 10's) to Ballonacy, Sweetie Cake and Sleek Chic (1 to-2), I give Heatherette a 6. I wish the collection was more Beauty of color friendly.

C'est tout.

I totally agree with u on Alpha Girl. However, I am a mix of NW45/NW55 and all of the lippies look great on me with the right lip pencil.. For example, Melrose Mood looks great with Nightmoth pencil and u could even add lovechild lipglass..

Thanks for the review.
