Indie Spotlight: Glamour Doll Eyes!

Hey guys! Coming at ya today with another Indie Spotlight post! This time, I'll be reviewing the popular indie brand, Glamour Doll Eyes!

Glamour Doll Eyes is a pretty popular indie makeup brand, they sell eyeshadows, lip glosses, blushes, and a bunch of stuff in between! You might recognize this brand if you've been following my Sample Saturdays series, as I've featured them quite a few times! The owner, Vee, has recently contacted me and asked if I would like to do a review on some shades from GDE. I was overjoyed and of course said yes! Prior to that, I have purchased, and used GDE myself, so I already knew I loved the products!

I choose six eyeshadows, and below I've swatched them over Urban Decay Primer Potion, NYX Jumbo Pencil in Milk, and finally foiled with just plain ol' water.

Here's a look I wore the other day using FrankenGlamous, Tattooed, and Heedless Heart (As well as Sugarpill eyeshadow in 2am, and Wet N Wild eyeshadow in Brulee)

The shadows are smooth, blendable, and gorgeously pigmented! I already knew I liked Glamour Doll Eyes, but the shades I chose this time around were just incredible! At $6 for a full sized jar, you really can't complain! GDE also offers TWO different sizes of samples you can purchase, which is amazing, because you all know, I LOVE me some samples! ;D Glamour Doll Eyes is also Cruelty Free!

I'd love to know if you're already a fan of GDE, or if you've been wanting to check them out! If you're already a fan, what are some of your favorite shades?!

Concrete Color Collections: Purple

Hello everyone! 

I came up with this idea for a new blog 'series', and you guys seemed to think it was a great idea when I posted it on Facebook. In case you missed it, I will be going through the ENTIRE Concrete Minerals collection, and posting swatches and photos of the shadows in each color. (Purples, Greens, Blues, etc) So you guys can see the shades side by side. Because I am the eye model for CM, I do own the entire current collection, not including shadows that were discontinued or limited edition before the website was re-vamped. Since I have all of them, I figured I can use that to help YOU decide on your favorite shades! I decided to start with purple, (one of my personal favorite colors of all time). 

I hope you enjoy!

1. Queen (Pro-Matte) - Royal, matte purple
2. Ravage (Pro-Matte) - Bright, matte purple

Abracadabra!

Hey everyone! I'm super excited to bring you this review, I finally got my hands on some black glitter! 

There's nothing a goth kid loves more than black, and nothing a makeup freak loves more than glitter, combine the two, and it's got my name written all over it.

Today, I got in the mail, a jar of Medusa's Makeup Glitter in 'Abracadabra' and pure, finely milled, black. I like this glitter because it is extremely fine, it can be layered x1000 to achieve whatever amount of sparkle you're looking for, from just a hint, to full on glitter-tastic.

 

Each jar comes with 3 grams of product, and is made in the USA (my grandpa would be proud. xD). When I received my jar, it was literally filled to the BRIM with glitter, so there's no shortages of product here! When I placed my order, my package was shipped out later that same day! Although this is my first time using their products, I was impressed by the speed of their processing and shipping. Oh and did I mention that their products are PETA certified? I'm not a total freak for peta or anything, but it helps me rest easy knowing my makeup hasn't been rubbed in some poor creature's eyeballs.
Bottom line, I will definitely order from Medusa's Makeup again. I can't help buy eye up all those gorgeous products on their website!
