The Gambler and the Wayward Son had Moments that Illuminate while Walking on Sunshine and having Sympathy for the Devil.

*Purchased*

Hello Lovelies,
 I am back again with another EOTD this time it is from Notoriously Morbid. Just  recently, Notoriously Morbid released a collection based off of Supernatural.  While they did have a collection of Coffin Kissers that were Supernatural this is an actual shadow collection that was based off of this series and to top is all off it is an entire DUO CHROME Collection.
OMG A SUPERNATURAL COLLECTION??!?!
Now while I still feel like I have been beat up against a wall health wise, I just couldn't resist the putting this collection on my eyes.

That's right, I still feel like crap. 
 Why did I crawl out of the crypt and shamble over to the makeup counter. It is just simply because these colors are that gorgeous and because Dean is super hot. Wait, did I say that out loud?

Why yes, yes you are!
 Now, after realizing that I have a true duo chrome addiction I knew that I instantly had to have this collection and the face that I am a Supernatural (Dean, so much Dean) fan. But I recently have been having the makeup blahs where I can't decide on a color combination and I really hate every look that I do.
Yes, the makeup blahs are real and it has nothing to do with makeup. 

It could be from the plague or the fact that I am currently doped up on cold medicine.


So many colors and so many choices!! MUST WEAR THEM ALL!
But I finally decided on this look with this gorgeous set of colors.



Behold an eye full of Winchester Duochromy goodness!
I used the following products for this look
Notoriously Morbid (NM) So Goes My Nation
Wayward Son (NM)
The Gambler (NM)
Moments That Illuminate (NM)
Walking On Sunshine (NM)
Sympathy for the Devil (NM)
The 15 piece Pink Brush set from Born Pretty Store (Use code KLH10 for 10% off your order)

  Jump for joy lovelies! The Winchester Collection is permanent and you can pick it up any time from Notoriously Morbid's site. Now if there are some colors that I used from a Vanishing Cabinet that you want to get your hands on or beg for the ladies at Notoriously Morbid to make permanent now is the time to join the Fangroup on Facebook and vote/request for what colors you would like to see back. You can also follow them on Instagram and Facebook. Do you have a favorite Supernatural character? If so which one and why? 




Until next time lovelies!

Hello Lovelies!
    I am back again this time with more swatches of the new Opulent Opaque lipstick line from Beauty Bar Baby. The first of the Opulent Opaque lipsticks is a collection inspired by the works of Edgar Allan Poe! Awesome opaque lipsticks inspired by one of my favorite writers of all time I am over the moon! But enough of my blathering I know what you really came for and that is the SWATCHES!  (Links are provided to the direct product just in case you have to get them NOW. ^_~)

Angel of the Odd


      "Angel of the Odd- A bright vibrant pink as intoxicating as the poem the name was inspired after"

Dream Within A Dream

   "Dream Within A Dream - A light lavender with a hint of blue & the perfect amount of dream essence"

Eleonora

"Eleonora- an almost maddening beautiful burgundy full of passion and fancy like the maiden it was named after"

Haunted Palace


          "Haunted Palace- a medium toned mauve as angelic as the palace that was tended by angels"

House of Usher

       "House of Usher - a darkened plum as dark and beautiful as the estate which it is named after"

Island of the Fay

          "A dreamy orchid color similar to beautiful flowers one would find on an Island of the Fay"

Ligeia
                 "Ligeia- A haunting combination of reds and plums to create a supernatural look"

Masque of the Red Death

"Masque of the Red Death- A brilliant bright berry red which will cause you to be the center of the party even if the plague and chaos are all around you."

Nevermore
               "Nevermore- Dark as the raven's wing that quoted the unforgettable phrase"

   Now for some reason you aren't a big Poe junkie as I am, you can go read the various short stories and poems on this site. (Seriously go read them now, everyone should read Poe. ^_~) But I hope that you enjoyed this swatch EXPLOSION of lipsticks !

Until Next Time Lovelies!

In the Pursuit of Fabulous-Review of Geek Chic Cosmetics

Hello again lovelies!
   I am feeling SUPER productive today since I am tackling two blog posts in one day. O.O But I just couldn't wait any longer to do the review for Geek Chic Cosmetics. This company combines two of my favorite things: makeup and geek culture. Honestly it just doesn't get any better than that. With collections ranging from eyeshadow sets inspired by amazing TV series, to button masher nail polishes, gorgeous glitters and scents based of tragic women in history they have something for everyone. Their formulas for everything that they carry are both gluten free and cruelty free. So not only are the colors and collections based off awesome geeky inspiration but they are racking up the karma points and looking out for their customer as well. While their pictures of their pigments are gorgeous on their site (and it makes me wonder what camera they are using cause I need it ) I always want to see colors against skin. I love that they are awesome with providing swatches against skin with each and every shadow. But if you are anything like I am, you also want to see pictures of the shadows used in looks to see how blendable and pigmented they are. So Dreadful has you covered with both swatches and looks I did with their pigments.

*All swatches were done over NYX Jumbo pencil in Milk*

Now that I have spammed you with enough pictures, on with the ratings...

Color Variety- 9 out of 10 bats
   Like the wide variety of geek subculture that they cover, their colors are just as varied. Each collection seems to embody the colors of the movie, game, TV series, etc that it was based on. For example the latest collection, Summoner, is full of shimmer and sparkle just like the avatars that are called forth in the video game that lay waste to your enemies.The So Say We All Collection has three gorgeous gray shades which are all different (which my camera failed to pick up the differences) but gives you the same gray feel of the ships on Battlestar Galactica. And honestly , I am not even going to lie about it, they made me squeal like a school girl with their Dr Who and Lovecraft inspired collections.

Color Pigmentation-9 out of 10 bats
  Their color pigmentation is just superb.The shimmery colors have tons of sparkle and shimmer to them and a good balance of pigmentation. I hate shadows that are nothing but pure shimmer and the color is nonexistent  I didn't have that problem here. While most of the colors that I received were shimmers the matte colors are just as pigmented and they all blend like a dream.

Affordability-9.5 out of 10 bats
   If the colors and the collections don't automatically make you squeal like a schoolgirl, the price will.All of the pigments run 5.99 which is extremely reasonable. The jars (which I am guessing are 5gm jars) are packed full and shipped with sifters (which I instantly remove when the jars get in my hot little hands). They also have a set of the month which is half price for the entire month! So you can get the whole collection of just a couple of pigments you can't live without for half price.

Overall-9.5 out of 10 bats
   I don't how to put this any plainer that this. I simply adore Geek Chic Cosmetics. They have combined two things that I love, makeup and geek culture. Their color variety is fantastic. It is diverse as the geek culture itself. The pigmentation is amazing. The shimmers have just the right balance of sparkle and color and the mattes are just as vivid all at a price that can't be beat. Not to mention they have a monthly sale that you can take advantage up and stock up on entire monthly selection or just the colors you want from it. This is a company that you don't want to miss out on and you will want to keep an eye to see what kind of gorgeous colors they will be coming up with next. So check them out and tell them I sent you. ^_~


Stay tuned for another circle lens review! Until next time my dears...
