Lorac’s Alter Ego Lipstick ($16.00)is described as a highly-pigmented matte lipstick, so it was only natural that I picked up the color Goddess, a mauve-ish color.

The huge “Kiko coming soon” poster in the mall had been taunting me for some time. Finally, they opened up (DC Metro area) and I went into an impulsive swatch-a-thon. Luckily, I was responsible and didn’t go crazy, but I wanted to! Have a look! Kiko Soft Touch Blush; Top: Dark Rose 105, Bottom:Classic Rose 111
