I've been slacking!

Pardon my horrible slacking when it comes to my posting with colors and swatches- I seem to have LOST my digital camera since the last post- I hope to some day find it laying in front of my face in this house of mine.

So here I am....trying to catch up on my Aromaleigh swatches. Small confession.....these are just colors I've recently acquired since February...yes, I know I have problems, and tonight- I have come to that realization.

Omg I looooove colors :-]

So I did 31 colors and swatches.

From top to bottom (not including the side swatches)
Row 1: paranoia (glitter), twinkling lights, ringoffire, flying flower, cool it, trainwreck, trillium, flutura's cloud, shadowplay, dawnbright (shimmer)
Row 2: expelliarmus, retrograde, event horizon, wave length, anake, obliviate, neptune, the wrong alice, phoebe, riddikulus
Row 3: tangled tinsel, severnia, socialite, rebel rebel (glitter), aphrodite (glitter) (thanks for these 5 from Lisa N.) Oops shade of darkish green when applied, Oops shade of blackish purple, lillith, delilah (glitter), scylla (glitter), permafrost (glitter), twilight sparkle (thanks for these 5 from Jennifer R.)
Row 4: eros, dolphin, little craving, lagoon, velvet dream, sage, tanaquil, times square, magnolia, kiss

Side Row (all Oops colors) ordered from left to right top to bottom (these are descriptions of when applied, not what you see in the bag): brown/red, dark bronze, tan/gold, bronze, peach, brown, tan, cranberry, blue/green all of these Oops colors are full of glitter and sparkle

The pictures were taken with my webcam which is decent, but really just can't do it justice. I tried to take the pics in the best lighting I could though- so the color is fairly good in the pictures.


I am totally willing to part with some of these, even though I love colors and glitter, I just don't do neutrals!

My favorite picks from these: Flying flower, Trillium, tangled tinsel, Flutura's cloud, severnia I have to say, alllllll of the ones in the second row are absolutely to die for which is why I specifically ordered full size jars of them



(PS- all of these swatches were put over Pixie Epoxy from Fyrinnae)

Glamour Doll Eyes Swatches!

So I got my order today from Glamour Doll Eyes! I've swatched these once again....and as a side note, swatching is kinda messy! Lol

There samples are pretty small, they seem like maybe 1/4- 1/2 of a tsp. I guess I can probably get a few uses from these. I ordered 8 of their samples, they also give you 2 samples for free. A friend of mine also got some samples from Glamour Doll, and I just wanted to add that there Holly Wood glitter looks strangely similar to the Holla Glitter from TKB. The rest of the samples look pretty original. I like the colors, they seem to be pretty vibrant. Honestly I actually had a bit of a hard time getting them off when I went to go clean up before bed. I had to scrub them off with a wash rag. The glitters were off course harder to get off considering the base. I still had glitter all over my arms!

I swatched the glitters and shadows I got from Glamour Doll Eyes. I ordered 5 glitters...the order of the glitter swatches is as follows: Rave, Techno, Fierce, Glowstick and Hot Mess. These were put on with Pixie Epoxy as a base. The shadows are as follows: Melancholy, Pinky Swear, Ladies Night, Immature, Electric Lemonade (Free) and Phyrra (free). These are kind of hard to see with or without flash on my camera, so apologies! Overall I’m totally in love with the glitters, because well…who wouldn’t be! I’m considering ordering some full size jars, but I haven’t decided 100% just yet. Glamour Doll Eyes does seem to have a nice selection of colors and uses for their shades. All of the ones listed above are lip/eye/face safe. A side note on that- for some reason these are coming with a little sticker on them and they just say ‘lip safe’ so it really had me confused wondering if they weren’t eye safe, but the website does indeed list them as being eye safe.

I’m still waiting on one more order to come in now…I ordered from Hi-Fi cosmetics on Dec 29^th, this is taking forever. She does have on her site still that it takes 12-15 Business days…I finally got some communication today though. I have been waiting for a response to make sure my order is in process…. I’m not at all sure how I feel about this taking so long though. I sure hope that these eye shadows are worth the wait. I feel like if I’m giving you my money I should receive some form of communication or updates on my order. I don’t want to be too demanding because I understand holiday rush, but this wait just feels kind of extensive. Hopefully I will be getting my order soon.

I’m totally a junkie for eyeshadow!!!!

I also wanted to share these...These photos are from TKB's Indian Blue. I put Pixie Epoxy on first and wore this color for the day. The shadow last a long time! Again, I had to take this one off with the wash rag.
