The Body Shop | Color Crush Nail Polish Green and Mint Cream Polka Dots

I am a hardcore Body Shop Color Crush fan as demonstrated by my now growing collection of Color Crush eyeshadows (reviews here and here). This Fall, The Body Shop decided to add another dimension to their makeup line – NAIL POLISH. Please heart, be still! Color Crush Nail Polishes ($8.00 CDN) comes in 24 glossy creme finishes and are 100% vegan-friendly. I’ve always wondered what vegan meant when it came to nail polish and it means that any glitter or shimmer will not come from fish scales (random nail polish fact).

The Color Crush Nail Polish debut begins with two absolutely gorgeous coats of Green with tiny Mint Cream polka dots. Both polishes had smooth, easily opaque formulas and were shiny all on their own without the addition of my top coat. I added one anyway since I wanted to preserve my mani for a few days.

I was quite impressed with these first two nail polishes from The Body Shop and I have a feeling the rest will be making me just as happy.

The Body Shop | Color Crush Shine Lipstick in #18 Sunset Romance with Swatches

The Body Shop’s Color Crush line has been well, crushing it for me this summer! I am all over the Color Crush eye shadows and now I am all over the Color Crush Shine Lipsticks ($13.00 CDN) that come in 10 shades, each providing a hint of tint and a healthy shine. The shade I have today in Sunset Romance is the same one I wore in my last Color Crush review and I have been loving how it almost makes my whole face glow from within.

CBB Guest Post with Sarah from Workaday Ramblings| Purple Eye Makeup Looks

Are you guys in for a treat today! I am absolutely delighted to have Sarah from Workaday Ramblings share with all of you some fun and totally wearable purple eye makeup looks that will leave you feeling regal and empowered as the colour purple should! Take it away Sarah!

Hello, I'm Sarah from Workaday Ramblings. I'm taking over Jayne's blog today to talk about purple.

I love purple everything. Purple eyeshadow, purple eyeliner, purple nail polish, purple clothes. I'd wear purple every day if I didn't think I'd get sick of it. So today I'm going to share a smudgey purple eyeliner look that I've done with two different sets of products.

In this look, I used only eyeshadows on my eyes. I started by applying The Body Shop Colour Crush Eye Shadow in Oh Honey all over my eye lids.

I then added a thick line of L'Oreal Infallible in Burning Black. I used a brush to smudge it up into the lighter shade. The name of this shadow is a bit misleading as it's a gorgeous dark maroon-purple.

I finished with some mascara, and my eyes were done.

The Body Shop | Color Crush Eye Shadow in #240 Gorgeous Gold with Swatches and Makeup Look

After my last makeup look using The Body Shop’s Color Crush Eye Shadow in Grape Expectations, I was excited to see the colour selection for the summer as I constantly want to look metallic like ALL THE TIME. Today’s makeup look features the shade Gorgeous Gold ($10.00 CDN), a metallic yellowish gold, with the same soft, buttery texture as Grape Expectations and provides great colour payoff. Since I LOVE these shadows so much, I also picked up Brownie & Clyde, which is a shimmery, metallic taupe that pairs off beautifully with Gorgeous Gold.

The last time I wore makeup from The Body Shop was a blush back in 2002. I don’t really know why I never went back for more, but I really should have as there have been a number of cult classics that we have The Body Shop to thank – *ahem* Shimmer Cubes! The new Color Crush Makeup line is the newest in makeup at The Body Shop and is filled with happy brights to usher in the Spring season.
