em michelle phan: day life palette: girls' day out

hi all! here's our fourth and final installment of my swatches and impressions of the em michelle phan's day life palette: the girls' day out quadrant. (to see the original haul post, click here. the first installment, the second installment, the third installment.) ~Lindsay-chan ^.~

 
eyeshadows 6 to 1, blush, lips 2 & 1 (corresponding names are below); shadows are swatched over ud original eye primer

impressions:
eyes:
  1. grab your purse -- despite how muddy the swatch looks, it's a pretty dark wine with purple shimmer; stays ok as liner
  2. rush hour -- gorgeous metallic purpley/orangey red; stays fairly well as liner
  3. things to do -- it's a pretty metallic taupe color, reminds me of ud mushroom/stray dog
  4. busy lady -- demi-matte dusty rose shade
  5. first priority -- pinky-taupe shell shade
  6. a pink moment -- matte pastel pink
lips:
  1. berry busy -- really pretty berry red
  2. sweet raisin -- sheer berry-tinted with pink/purple glitter
cheeks: perfect rose -- i really like this color, it's a pretty rosy-mauve

 
lol, my gray tank is peeking out from under my shirt..it's not a tag.
despite how confusing the look card was for this one (i just kinda winged it..), it's not too bad. i don't think i'll ever use a red as liner ever again. up close, it makes me look sickly.... lol.

after all of this, i've decided to depot the whole palette to something like this. whenever i travel, i'll probably rearrange the em travel palette, or just move them in and out of another z palette. (the four pans that were in the day dreaming sampler are shown below, and the corresponding four that came in the life palette are still untouched in my life palette.)

top: small z palette, em travel palette; bottom: 4U z palette
