It’s still summer, but the weather starts to turn suddenly to Fall. On those cooler days, you might look for product that performs for summer activities, but in colors more suitable for Fall weather. Make Up For Ever Aqua Rouge 3 is the perfect color for these in-between days! [Read more…] about Make Up For Ever Aqua Rouge 3

Wonder Gloss Nail Lacquer, Flirt and Candy
[button link=”https://www.ragingrouge.com/about-raging-rouge/raging-rouge-llc-disclosures” target=”_blank” rel=”nofollow” color=”RR” shape=”rounded” size=”small” align=”right”]Press Sample[/button]Today I’m featuring two classic shades of Wonder Gloss Nail Lacquer, by Prestige Cosmetics. Available in 27 shades, this inexpensive polish also features vitamins in the formula to help strengthen nails!
On the left is pale pink, pretty as a picture “Flirt” which is a peachy pink that works as a great neutral shade for 2013, and would look beautiful paired with a smoky gray shade for the winter. To the right is “Candy” which is a vibrant candy apple red suitable for a Ferrari. I absolutely love these two shades. The classics are always in style! Keep scrolling for more Flirt and Candy swatch fun!
Retail price is $3.95 per bottle.

Smashbox Black Gold Waterproof Shadow Liner
[button link=”https://www.ragingrouge.com/about-raging-rouge/raging-rouge-llc-disclosures” target=”_blank” rel=”nofollow” color=”RR” shape=”rounded” size=”small” align=”right”]Press Sample[/button]Something I’m seeing more and more are color cosmetics in the shape of a pencil, and I am a big fan of the trend because a perfect application is so much easier when using a pencil format!
Smashbox has introduced the Waterproof Shadow Liner, which not only satisfies my obsession with all things “pencil” but my love for waterproof product! One end of the product is a sharpened cream shadow and the other is a smudge stick. I use a smudge brush every single day, because nothing nothing can make a jagged application look perfect. I love when a smudge-tip is included on the end of product, so it can never ben accidentally forgotten when packing.
“Black Gold” is one of the limited-edition “Fade to Black” shades of Waterproof Shadow Liner, and is one of those interesting not-quite-black shades I’ve been featuring so often in recent days. The color is an antique burnished gold shade, wildly popular for Fall 2013.
Retail price is $22.

My Love/Hate Relationship With Nail Art
I LOVE nail art, but as easy as those YouTube “how to” videos make it look, the truth is it’s just damn difficult and time consuming! So I’ve given up on dotting, water marbling, and stamping. Instead I’ve been shopping for funky, chunky top coats like OPI Polka Dot Com to add some modern flair to my mani!
OPI Polka.com is from the Euro Centrale collection that launched in Spring 2013. I used it over brights in the summertime, but it easily works for Fall as well (over a nice deep gray would be superb). This is a clear coat filled with multiple shapes and sizes of purple and blue glitter.
**Trick** use this as a top coat to quickly disguise chipping nails!
