Warpaint Beauty A Mile Away

I really wanted an obnoxious yellow. I really did! A week or so ago I just had this craving for really loud eye popping colors. I have quite a few neons, but I did not have a highlighter yellow shade. I found this one on sale at Hot Topic last week and it was exactly what I was looking for. 

Warpaint Beauty A Mile Away


A Mile Away is a fluorescent neon yellow.

A Mile Away...could the name be more perfect? This took a ridiculous amount of coats. I think it took 5 or 6. The formula is thin and it dries matte (which dries almost instantaneously), so this actually did not bother me. It could probably benefit from some polish underwear, but I was lazy. I like it. It's just what I wanted. Now, I just need the courage to wear this out. It's funny since I wanted a color like this so bad, but now I'm hesitant about wearing it! 

Happy Monday!

  1. Great color!

    I have noticed that every neon shade I have tried, no matter the brand, needs several coats and every coat dries really fast and matte.

  2. This reminds of the Wet n Wild Spoiled yellow, Did I Dye it Too Blonde? I should have bought when I had the chance, but I went with a blue, Plenty of Fish in the Sea. I do LOVE that blue though :D

  3. Oh honey go out and show it off! It looks amazing! I know every time I feel less than stellar I wear something eye catching.  Just yesterday I went out wearing cherry red lipstick (to a theme park) and felt like an a** until some random woman came to me asking what color it was and complimenting how amazing it looked. I was thrilled! Made my day.

  5. I am SO into neons lately. It's ridiculous. I picked up three tank tops from Old Navy in neon colors, and lately I've been obsessed with China Glaze's Flip Flop Fantasy. It makes me feel so 'summer-y'. LOVE this.

  10. Jackie, I totally agree! Sunglasses and bright fuchsia lipstick are my go-to look when I don't have time to do makeup, but instantly need to look pulled together! :)

  14. I had the same desire for a highlighter yellow last summer. Finally I got one, but did feel weirdly self conscious about it. I'm not shy about sporting other neons. Just the yellow. No clue as to why!
