Hey everyone
If you remember a while ago i purchased a few samples from Glamour Doll Eyes. I finally recieved my order today after waiting 12 days for it to arrive in the post.
At this point in time I dont know if i will be ordering from them again as it did take a month to process my order and send it, even though at the time my order was placed their site stated it would only take 2 weeks to process orders. =/ However i did notice that the week after i placed my order the processing time on their site had chaned to 2-4 weeks, so i guess they got really busy over Halloween.
So all together i grabbed 13 samples, it worked out cheaper to get the colours i wanted in her collections that get them individually so i opted for that.
*colour descriptions are taken straight from the Glamour Dolls website*
- The Jelly Beans Collection [sadly this collection isn't being offered anymore]
>Strawberry Cupcake: pretty pink not too bright and not too light
> Pixie: (couldnt find a proper description) shimmery pink with a slight peach tinge
> Blueberry Lush: bright blue with medium sheen
> Sugar Plum: gorgeous light purple
> Gold Digger: gold
> Graffiti: matte black with lime glitter
- Bad Gal Collection
> Violet: pale violet
> Secretive: soft pink with low sheen
> Dirty Jeans: teal grean that rubs into a blue-green with gold hues
> Leather & Lace: matte black with pink glitter
- Geeky But Glam Collection
> Fabulous!: an amazing teal
> Sterling Gitz: a silvery diamond glitter shade
> Pinky Swear: bright fuschia with pearl finish
> Glam Girl: super bright purple
- Fabulous!(individual sample) - teal
Line1: Leather & Lace, Sterling Glitz, Graffiti, Gold Digger
Line2: Blueberry Lush, Fabulous (x2), Dirty Jeans
Line3: Sugar Plum, Glam Girl, Violet, Pinky Swear
Line4: Pixie, Secretive, Strawberry Cupcake
Line1: Leather & Lace, Sterling Glitz, Graffiti, Gold Digger
Annoyingly neither Leather & Lace or Graffiti had any visible glitter in them. The formula was a bit grainy so im assuming that there was glitter in it, you just cant tell when you use it....
Line2: Blueberry Lush, Fabulous, Dirty Jeans
I did my best to capture the gold sheen in Dirty Jeans, which i think came out quite good ^_^ considering im normally whinging about my cameras inability to capture the different hues in some of my pigments
Line3: Sugar Plum, Glam Girl, Violet, Pinky Swear
Violet was a bit of a let down, its not as sheer as it appears here, but it isnt as vibrant as i would have expected. Pinky Swear was probably the most suprising because as i moved it under the light a blue hue was brought out of which was gorgeous (insert whinging about stupid camera here -.-" )
Line4: Pixie, Secretive, Strawberry Cupcake
I think the angle that i was taking this photo was just plain wrong - all these shades are much brighter and Secretive even has a hot pink highlight to it when moved under the light =/
I think my favourite colours are
- Dirty Jeans
- Sugar Plum
- Fabulous
- Pinky Swear
- Secretive
- Sterling Glitz
Have you ever ordered from Glamour Doll Eyes?
What do you think of their colours?
Has anybody else had the same problem with Leather & Lace and Graffitit?
