I'm so disappointed by ascension nail polish... :( I was hoping for an awesome duochrome like ozotic or something;.... so sad :( damn!

Even then pigments are mediocre, the lipsticks texture clings to the little skins on the lips, the powder is nothing special, the megal metals will crease...

the easiest collex after metalX collex to skip!

Did you try it out? Or what is your opinion based on?

I love the b/p, the metal x (Obsura) did not crease on me (under stage lights! - I have yet to try Ardent), and the l/s was effortless to apply.

I also like all three n/p, but of course, each of us has a different taste, but they certainly do not lack quality.

In Canada, Lipmann is a dollar or two cheaper.




Kate thank you for confiming this. That's the first thing I thought of when we got product descriptions was that Ascension sounded exactly the same as DL Wicked Game. Wicked Game is a beautiful duochrome and DL is $16.

I had hoped this collection would excite me more, better for my wallet that it doesn't. Oh well I guess it's a skip for me.

Does the base of Deceit pigment remind you of Bloodline pigment? Just eyeballing it quickly in the container reminded me of a tweaked version of Bloodline pigment with more depth.

Do you know if elude beaty powder is "full size"? I mean, does it have the same quantity of product as a regular beauty powder, and is it refillable? thanks!!

I finally went back to see what the other 2 nail polishes look like and I'm not impressed at all. IMO totally dupable and not worth $23.
