Evil Shades Haul and Review

Hey guys

Back again!

After i published my last post i went outside and what do u think i found on my doorstep?

My Evil Shades order!

I actually ripped open the box the second i saw it - i was that excited after seeing Phyrra use some of their shades, i was pretty much keeping my ears out for the postman everyday till he finally dropped it off ^_^

The things i ordered were:

- A complete sample set of all 15 shadows they offered

- 3 of their lip glosses

There were so many that i swatched them in colour groups (i don't know why colours just seemed logical).

(From Left to Right) Sinister, Banshee, Acolyte, Abyss, Mysteria, Suffocation

Panic, Zombie, Coffin, Erinnye

Coffin and Erinnye confused me for a bit when i swatched them. I thought that i had swatched the same colour twice but when i moved it under the light i saw the Erinnye had more a dark copper undertone to it and a lot of silver sparkles while Coffin was a bit lighter and had a satin finish to it.

Moonlight, Silver Bullet

This was really annoying to photograph - basically Silver Bullet is more a platinum silver than white that this showing.

Double Barrel, 13th Hour, Devils Bonfire, Venom

Double Barrel and 13th Hour was another confusion for me lol. But even though this photo doesn't show it, 13th Hour actually has a really pretty purple finish to it that comes up in different lights - i just couldn't get my camera to capture it =(

13th Hour, Venom, Lethal Kiss

When applied onto my lips these aren't so pigmented, they give more of a "stained" effect. However i still really like them. They are really smooth, and super moisturising believe it or not. Sadly their staying power isn't all that good but honestly i don't really care, i still love them.

Overall i really like this company. They have fantastic products, their comunication is excellent and their shipping is also really fast. ow did i mention how affordable they are?

It's run by Evil Angel (check out her blog!), and she makes all the products herself. Including some really cute jewellery that's just been released. The colours are amazingly pigmented, all these swatches only took a minuscule amount of product applied with my pinky finger :)

I'm really looking forward to using these shadows and i will be looking for an excuse to go out just so i can wear them ^_^

Have any of you bought anything from Evil Shades? What did you get? What other indie cosmetics companies do you purchase from? Would love to hear your thoughts

xx

This is just a lil something for my favourite B-tard ^_^

Emo Smokey Eyes

Hey Guys,

Yesterday my sister asked me to do a dramatic and dark smokey eye for our formal (in case you're questioning this - i am a twin) so i decided to practice on myself and get a feel for using the dark colours she picked out.
I personally don't like this look on me - i think its too dark and i think i look really emo lol but whatever somebody else might like it ^_^



FACE:
- Savvy Pressed Powder, Dark
- Contour & Blush Palette (see eBay tag) for contouring and highlighting
- Fyrinnae Glow Blush, Intrigue


LIPS:
- Black eyeliner (yes Black! lol) very LIGHTLY line and fill in lips (i used a cotton bud to smudge the edges so they weren't harsh)
- The Body Shop Colour glide Lip Colour, 21 Soft Red




EYES:
- Coastal Scents Gel Liner, True Black, all over lid and lower lash line - smudged into crease with finger
- Models Prefer 30 Shadow Palette, the darkest shades - the black with a hint of blue (2nd along the top) and a plain black with some silver glitter (2nd along the bottom)
- The first shade (black + blue) patted across the lid and in the lower lash line
- The second shade (black + glitter) placed into the crease
- Using both a slightly angled fluffy brush, and the crease brush from Fyrinnae, blend the two shades together concentrating in the outer V area
- White Shadow with a blue duo-chrome (also from Models Prefer Palette) used as inner corner highlight and brow highlight.



(hehe lol lazy looking eye)

Please excuse the bad eyebrows i wasn't going anywhere so i just really couldn't be bothered to do them ^_^

This was my first attempt at something this dark, its not perfect obviously, but doesn't really matter...

Hey guys, todays look is actually inspired by a video tutorial xspakage made a while ago. Its called Barbie After Midnight. Its so gorgeous that i decided to do a more toned down and muted version for a daytime look.
And of course i used different products ^_^

Here is what i came up with:

LIPS:

So my camera was being doosh and refusing to pick up the black - so please dont be fooled and think that the black is grey. It's not. It just looks that way in the photo =(
