Darling Girl Oh The Horror Swatches

I ordered a few of the Darling Girl Oh The Horror Halloween collection eye shadows when they were released. I grabbed five samples as a mix and match set, and got a free sample too. 

All shadows are swatched over pixie epoxy and photographed in natural light. Descriptions taken from the Darling Girl site where possible.

The Boogeyman - Sandy taupe with orange sheen and red sparkles

 

The Mummy - Shimmery metallic gold with color shifting iridescence that shifts from blue, purple to gold. [the colour shift was hard for me to see, but the wintery light sucks]

Lonely Assassins - Soft ashy grey with pink to golden green shift.  [again I struggled to see the shift, I did get the purple but it wouldn't photograph. I have about 50 of this shade]

Death By Unicorn - Pale silvery pink with blue undertones and pink, bronze and blue color shifting sparkles.

Ripley's Cat - Orange-y coral with pink and gold tones and color shifting iridescence that shifts from pinky red to orange to gold.

Freaky Friday [GWP] - Blue, purple and holo glitter in an orange microglitter base

The Boogeyman, Ripley's Cat and Death by Unicorn are favourites, though I kinda want to plaster my face in Freaky Friday.

Everything can be purchased from Darling Girl Cosmetics online.

More Black Rose Minerals Swatches

The second part of my Black Rose Minerals haul swatchpost.
All swatches were taken in natural light over Pixie Epoxy. Shade descriptions in italics are taken from the Black Rose Minerals website.  

Scruffy - Scruffy’s gonna die how Scruffy lived… This sparkly dark gray is a jazzy compliment to any janitor suit. We recommend a sticky base to capture all the shimmer and glitter in this one. Why is Scruffy sparkly? Well…. We don’t really know, but it worked. Mmmm-hmmm.From the Futurama inspired New New York collection.

Thirteen - Considered by most an unlucky number, and yes thirteen is usually an awkward age, but lets just say its a prime number. Don't let superstition deter you from this super awesome shade. Wear it dry for a mid-tone shimmery violet with slight blue highlights. Wear it wet for a deep violet hue with a metallic blue sheen. from the One Year Anniversary collection

Unicorn - Shunnnnnnnnnnn-nuh-nuh-nuh the non-believer! It’s ok, we’ll still be your friend. Especially if you’re wearing this lovely lavender sheen that glistens with many multicolored highlights. Sheer when dry, wearing it wet deepens the hue slightly and still shows off it’s glistening pop. from the One Year Anniversary collection

Pacific Oil Slick - There's something fishy about this one. A black base with a blue green shimmer. Just like that tar ball that washed up on the beach! Worn wet, it has an iridescent green sheen and dry for a smoky eye with a touch of shine and shimmer.

Scarab -This deep chocolaty brown shimmers with green-gold sparkles. And a splash of purple glitter that glistens in certain angles. from the One Year Anniversary collection

 

Skink - Slip into something slippery with this barely there neutral. Dry shows off a very subtle pinky-beige that shimmers beautifully. Worn wet it becomes a champagne metallic finish with shimmer blending out on the edges. Recommended as a perfect highlight, wear it paired with a dark matte for a dramatic look or alone for a natural neutral! 

 

Synth Pop - An awesome mix of purple, lime green and pink glitter! 

and these are the two free samples I was sent

Scabbed Wings - Angels aren’t the only things that fly. This devilish little number starts with a black base, orange undertones show off a bronzy duotone. Finish that off with violet sparks for quite a shocking twist. We recommend a wet or sticky base for application. From the Luciferi collection

Stardust - A glitter explosion of purple, pink and ocean blue!

Favourites are: Thirteen, Scarab, Skink, Scabbed Wings and Stardust

Clones in Gitter

My May 4th makeup that I managed to forget to post. I'm still on a glitter spree, I blame Victorian Disco and Black Rose Minerals for fueling my glitter addiction ;)
