I'd seen The New Black around Sephora as I shopped in the last few months, and I always thought to myself "oh, hey, that's really cute!" but never bought it. But my thirty-second birthday passed recently and I needed to buy something so I could get my free birthday gift (this year it was two free mini Sugar Lip Treatments by Fresh in their clear and Rosé colors). Yes, I already own the big ones of both of those. No, I will never turn down free lip balm. Yes, I get it's not free if I buy things to go with it. Shut the hecks up, Judgey McJudgerson. I figured it was time to just grab one of The New Black kits and be done with it. I got Walrus, the ombre nude kit.
Isn't it cute? I like the idea of this - making ombre kits so that you don't have to go buy other colors or think too much about what you're doing. Making ombre accessible to people when they're drunk and/or lazy? I'm in. Now, this kit was USD 22.00. The bottles are hella tiny, but there are five of them.
See? Iiiiitty bitty. But, like I said, every mani you're only using each color for 2 nails, so they should last a decent amount of time.
I think it's kinda cute! I think I need to invest more in nudes - I have literally zero, and they're adorable on me. The formula on these is kinda goopy, and not my favorite, but I think it's a fun set and I'll trot it out whenever work makes me dress more "professionally".
