Misa WanderLust Fall 2012 Review and...another Giveaway!


Misa has released one beautiful collection after the other this year and their Fall WanderLust is no exception with six amazing shimmers!




Breakaway is a medium plum based infused with red and gold shimmers. I absolutely love this kind of purples! The shimmer is subtle but definitely adds dimension to the base. It's very similar to OPI Dutch 'Ya Just Love OPI or Zoya True but I wouldn't call them dupes. This is two coats plus topcoat.






Epiphany is a very light muted yellow packed with strong metallic gold shimmer. It's completely unique in my collection and although I wouldn't have thought of this kind of shade for Fall, it still works somehow. I also used 2 coats here but a third one might be necessary for full coverage if you're not carefull with application.






Frozen in Time is a dusty lavender with a subtle pink shimmer running through. It's so stunning, I think could wear colors like this all the time! I love the contrast between the cool toned base and the warm saturated shimmer. You're looking at 2 coats plus topcoat.





Live Without Knowing is a light cool taupe with tons of gold and pink metallic shimmers. It's a very complex and sophisticated shade and I love how it's different from the usual taupes with gold shimmer. I used 2 coats and topcoat.






Lost To The World is a warmer and darker taupe than Live Without Knowing with a subtle red, gold and green shimmer. It's typically the type of brown that suits every skin tone. I love it! Again, this is two coats and topcoat.





Taking Chances is a cool toned apricot packed with strong gold metallic shimmer. It's also completely unique in my collection and rather complimenting. Two coat plus topcoat here as well.





Formula was really outstanding on all of these, on the thicker side but surprisingly easy to apply and very pigmented, even the yellow applied nicely and with no streak. I've been really impressed with Misa formula in general lately.


Overall :
I love this collection as a whole and I love each and every color. The heavy shimmers are completely unique and the other three are subtle but also gorgeous. I'd have a really hard time picking a favorite so I'll just ket you tell me in the comments which ones you prefer ;-)



The WanderLust collection is already available on misacosmetics.com and retails for $7.50 each.
