Glamour Doll Eyes Deadly Hollywood Collection

Press Samples

Hi Everyone!

The always lovely Vanessa from Glamour Doll Eyes was kind enough to send me the Deadly Hollywood collection to swatch! The collection launches tomorrow (August 18th) and has two parts to it: The Socialite part and the Outcast part. The entire collection will consist of 6 eyeshadows, 2 blushes, 2 gel liners, 1 Hydraglaze and 1 glitter tube! I unfortunately do not have the gel liners to show you but I do have everything else!

All are swatched over Glamour Doll Eyes Foil Me!

OUTCAST

Corruption (Eye Shadow)- is a dark matte brown base with a red sheen and a gold sparkle.

 Dirty Mistress (Eye Shadow)- is a bright red base with a pink shift and a beautiful rainbow sparkle. 

 Overdose (Eye Shadow)- is a light to medium gray with an orange and red shift and a strong blue sparkle. 

 Victim of Deceit (Glitter Tube)- is a mix of black, silver and red glitter. Hollywood Undead - Been to Hell. 

 Ms. Monroe (Blush)- is a soft creamy peach with a red and pink shift. 

*Left swatch is built up, right swatch is blended out. Swatched over bare skin*

SOCIALITE 

 Celebrity Sighting (Eye Shadow)- is an opaque satin white with a coppery red sheen and a strong red sparkle. 

 Espionage (Eye Shadow)- is matte black base with a red shift and intense silver sparkle. 

 Pollution (Eye Shadow)- is a light beige with a low sheen, a copper and orange shift and a very subtle golden shimmer.

 Hollywood Affair (Blush)- is a darken rose/mauve with golden pink shimmers.

 *Left swatch is built up, right swatch is blended out. Swatched over bare skin*

 Homicide (HydraGlaze)- is a matte, true red gloss with a buttercream scent. 

All of these applied extremely well and were smooth. No issues what-so-ever.  The HydraGlaze was not sticky in the slightest and was not drying. I'm kind of new to lip swatches, so I hope my photo isn't horrible! If you'd like more info and to purchase, you can find everything here!

Wonderland Beauty Cosmetics Review and Swatches

Press samples

Hi All!

I recently had the chance to swatch some colors for Wonderland Beauty Cosmetics and I thought everyone should see how gorgeous these colors are!

Here's a little bit of information from the website: "Our mineral makeup is hand blended and 100% cruelty free, no animal testing . Most of my products are vegan friendly, those that aren't will say so in listing. Eyeshadows are eye, face, nail, and lip safe unless stated otherwise. All products are made,/prepared in a clean sterile environment,all tools used are sanitized before each use .I always wear gloves and mask for your safety and mine."

Wonderland Beauty Cosmetics are a new company that I've seen around in some of the Facebook groups I'm in, so I was happy to swatch and see how the products were. I was actually pretty blown away by how different they look from the website and in the baggies. They were easy to blend, easy to apply and were very pigmented. No patchiness what-so-ever.

Sample sizes in baggies (over 1/4 tsp) are $1.30 and full sizes (2.7-3 grams) are $3.25 which are very reasonable prices for the amount you receive. Right now from what I can tell, samples have handwritten labels and full sizes have cute labels. The handwritten labels do not have the ingredients listed, but it does state if they are lip safe or not. The ingredients are listed on the companies Etsy, so it wasn't a problem for me. The only issue I've seen (for some) is the handwritten labels. I personally have no problem with this, but I think printed labels would be a nice touch.

Enough writing, ON TO THE SWATCHES! :)

All are swatched over GDE's Foil Me!

Cheshire- "a shimmery pinky purple with a hint of blue and a ton of aqua, pink, blue, and purple sparkles. It is NOT Vegan and NOT lip safe." 

 Chocolate Heart- "a shimmery deep chocolate brown with a red/pink color shift and red sparkles. It is Vegan and lip safe."

 Hardly Alice- "a gorgeous shimmery purple with a ton of green sparkles! . It is NOT Vegan and NOT lip safe."

 Hatter's Toxic Tea- "a shimmery mid toned teal green full of aqua and orange sparkles. It is NOT Vegan and NOT lip safe."

 Maddly Hatted- "reddish brown with a green duochrome and lots of sparkles. It is Vegan and NOT lip safe."

 Mermaid Tears- "a shimmery blue with a green /yellow duochrome and lots of sparkles . It is Vegan and NOT lip safe."

 Mermaid- "a shimmery aqua green with duochromes of blue, green, and yellow sparkles."

Morpheus- " a dark shimmery blue with black undertones and aqua sparkles. It is Vegan and lip safe."

 Pink Rabbit- "a shimmery hot pink with multi colored glitter depending on the light . It is NOT Vegan and it is lip safe."

 True Love- "a shimmery pink mauve with golden sparkles. It is NOT Vegan and NOT lip safe."

True Love, Hatter's Toxic Tea and Cheshire surprised me the most. In the baggie they looked a tad bit boring but once I started swatching I was amazed by how they looked! I think this company has A LOT of potential and should be on your radar!

My Pretty Zombie- Random Swatches

Purchased- PHOTO HEAVY

Hi! 

I'm back with even more My Pretty Zombie swatches! These are just some random colors I picked up with my last order. 

All are swatched over GDE's Foil Me!

Tenderloin- "red plum with blue shimmer"

 Brisket- "copper with a red to gold shift"

Bleu- "midnight blackened blue with blue green shimmer"

 Fatback- "pale pink with golden shimmer"

Wicked Crochet- "a dusty lavender with enough green glitter to make you puke!"
*I had an issue trying to get the glitter to stick. I used a sticky base, but I guess I had let it dry too much, so you will need a sticky base that isn't fully dry to get the glitter to stick.*

Law Firm Lamb Cake- "a pink shimmer base and enough pastel multi colored glitter"

*Like Wicket Crochet, you will need a not fully dry sticky base to hold the glitter in this*

 

Gangrenous- "starts as a dark lavender and switches to a glossy green depending on the light and the angle"

 

 Grandma Cleavage- "a cornflower crayon blue with a gold shift."

 

 Thunderpants- "a mossy brownish bronze with tons of teal glitter"

 

 Quinsy- "spring green with a blue sheen"

 

 Lulu Cupcake- "fluffy pink with tons of pink glitter"

 Thundernuts- "Light brown with a sweet ass blue shift"

L to R- Tenderloin, Brisket, Bleu and Fatback

 L to R- Wicked Crochet, Law Firm Lamb Cake, Gangrenous, Grandma Cleavage

L to R- Thunderpants, Quinsy, Lulu Cupcake, Thundernuts

Whewww! That was a lot of swatches, hope you're still looking at this by now! :) I was absolutely blown away by my entire order from MPZ. I knew what to expect from the colors, but they're just so much better in real life. I have to say my favorites out of this bunch are Brisket, Bleu, Fatback, Grandma Cleavage and Thundernuts. All of them are amazing, those are just my absolute favorites. I'm already planning out my next order!

My Pretty Zombie- Blue Period and mNg Collections

Purchased

Hi everyone!

I finally made my first My Pretty Zombie purchase! I'm not sure what took me so long because everything is so amazing! I'm in love with everything I purchased. I ordered during the recent sale and received everything within TAT. No problems at all. The eyeshadows are extremely smooth and easy to work with and the colors are so original and just....great. Really. I was blown away to see some of these colors in person. I'll have another post soon with random colors I ordered, but for now here's the complete collections I got.

Everything is swatched over GDE's Foil Me!

Blue Period Collection

"These colors all have a strong blue base..."

Dissolution-A sparkly purple with a blue base.

Infirmity- A sparkly mossy green with a blue base.

Forsaken- A sparkly turquoise with a blue base.

 L to R: Dissolution, Infirmity and Forsaken

mNg Collection

 mNg No. 1- "Hot Pink with blue shift"

mNg no. 2- "Peachy pink with a golden green shift"

mNg No.3 - "Bubblegum Pink with a blueish purple shift"

 L to R: mNg no. 1, mNg no. 2, mNg no. 3

I was actually surprised by the mNg Collection. I didn't think there would be such a noticable difference between the colors, but there is. I think my favorite is mNg no. 3 out of them all. mNg No. 1 reminds me a lot of Darling Girl's Obviously A Wig, but Obviously A Wig leans more purple than pink.

Keep an eye out for my next MPZ swatch post! :)

Some Fyrinnae Swatches

Hi all!

I have a few Fyrinnae swatches I figured everyone would like to see. I'm going to try switching up things a little bit on here with my photos and descriptions, hope you don't mind!

All are swatched over GDE's Foil Me.

• Bride of Frankenstein- (Not available) A bright medium blue with a green/turquoise shift that's full of shimmer.

•  *You're (now named Scarlet Macaw)- "Bright shimmery warm red filled with multi-color sparkle, much like Shenanigans."

•  Fyre & Ice- "Deep black filled with varying hues of pink, purple, and blue sparkle."

• Are You My Mummy?- "It starts out a vibrant, shimmery, gleaming deep green with a hint of turquoise. Closer to light or at an angle this shade takes on a pink-red color.Halloween 2011. Altered slightly in February 2014 and appears more shimmery. Contains Blue #1 and Yellow #5 and may stain temporarily." 

I love all of these colors! Are You My Mummy? has a nice pink/purple shift that I couldn't really capture in its entirety, but you can still see it on the last image.
