Of the three nail colours, I choose the darkest, Billy Tea (£12). I initially thought it just brown, but it definitely has a taupe vibe to it in real life. The colour is matte.
The formula is free from Formaldehyde, Toluene, Camphor and Di Butyl Phthalate. The polish dries fast and I get no colour fade or dulling of colour, although I do need to wear a top coat to prevent chipping.Ingredients:
Beach Tint Fig (£19), is an existing shade but forms part of the Lost weekend look. This shade is described on the Zuneta site as a Tea Rose nude and that's spot on. The colour is sheer, but I do find it buildable.
What I like about these is that they do not feel drying nor are they greasy. They last very well and cause my acne prone skin no problem.Ingredients:
Finally, here is proof of just how quick my little boy is when he sees the opportunity for some makeup grabbing! I didn't realise how close he was when I was merrily taking my photos, I did get the beach tint off him..eventually..
I bought these from zuneta.com
haha! Love the last picture. My little ones are the same!
ReplyDeleteI so want to try Fig, I have Raspberry which is lovely and winey, but Fig may just neutralise my red cheeks, love the little hand in the last picture :)
ReplyDeleteI'm so excited about your nail colour - it's exactly what I want to get, too! I like that Becca passes the harmful ingredients, yay! I'm just concerned cause my nails are pretty small. A darker shade might make them look even more tiny. Looks great on your hands, that's for sure :-)
ReplyDeleteI have both of these but I still haven't applied Billy Tea, I was shocked to read it's matte. I didn't dealise that at all despite the previous manicure. I'm intrigued to pull it out now!
ReplyDeleteI loved that last picture! I often have an audience to my picture taking too - grabby hands!

Haha the last photo is adorable!
ReplyDeleteI love Billy Tea on you!
I love the look of the Beach Tint.
ReplyDeletehehehe, that pic is so brilliant Replica :))
ReplyDeletesorry for being MIA, but am finishing up dissertation and am scarcely coming up for air these days. one more week though, and I'll be done.
i got the palette as soon as it got out, but nothing else from the collection. I do love the palette and use it very often, I'll be waiting for your review of it.
have a great week hon!

Love that last photo, your little boy obviously has great taste. I really love the two Beach Tints that I have and I was thinking about getting Fig but am worried that it might be too light for me. How does the colour compare to the liquid blush in RBR Flamenco Duende duo? I find I have to really apply a lot of that one to get it to show up on me. x
ReplyDeleteAwww that last pic is SO cute!!! :)))
ReplyDeleteFig looks nice and certainly autumn-appropriate, I think that my Zuneta wishlist is in need of an update!!! ;)

Hey Replica! It's been a while since we spoke here.. I got Billy Tea nail polish too, I love it, its what I wanted Particuliere to look on me. Particuliere ends up looking too brown and dirty on my skintone but Billy Tea has just the hint of mauve/purple to be flattering. Fig looks gorgeous on you, I got the Guava beach tint which is a smidgeon pinker than grapefruit beach tint, also very pretty. I must draw your attention to the two new blushes from the Becca fall collection: Sweet Pea (a rosey mauve) and WIld Honey (bronzey nude).. I got sweet pea and I love it-- looks common in the pan but goes on quite unique. I think you might be able to get away using the Wild Honey shade as a bronzer..

Hi Charlie,
ReplyDeleteGlad its not just me then, I have lost quite a lot of makeup to that little man :)
Hi Jan,
I do think you would quite like fig, its a shame they don't do a collection of them in mini sizes so we could try them all :)
Hi Sam,
Thanks :)Its not too dark, I put on 3 coats but at two its more lighter and still looks good, worth a try :)
Hi Jane,
You made me doubt myself, so I had to re-check it ;) it does seem matte on me, no shimmer that I can see.
I love your grabby hands pic, looming with intent! x
Hi Vintage Makeup,
Thanks, I just had to post the pic when I saw it when I was uploading my stuff, I'm surprised it wasn't blurred as he was really quick! :)
Hi PinkSparkle84,
It is a really nice, natural wear with anything type of shade :)
Hi Nina,
I bet you are counting down the days! Will a makeup haul be on the cards to celebrate when you finish ? ;)
I'm glad you like the pic x
Hi Klara,
I notice my little man seems to go for my more expensive makeup, he must somehow know :)
Fig is not as warm/peachy as Flamenco Duende, I would say its on par with the pigment level though, perhaps a bit more buidable x
Hi Tina,
Thank you, he is a little cutie (most of the time). My wants from Zuneta always seem to be growing :)
Hi Lakshmi,
I didn't get Particuliere but did wonder how these would compare, good that the Becca is cheaper as well. I did wonder about the blushers but I find my other Becca ones very pigmented and thought this would just be too warm and too dark on me? Your trying to change me mind aren't you ;) xx
