Aromaleigh v2.1’s Goddess of the Month collection

Ever since the company’s return in 2012, I’ve periodically bought eyeshadows from Aromaleigh, hopeful that they’d return to their former quality. Sadly, that didn’t quite happen…but Aromaleigh still makes fantastic blushes and highlighters. Their assortment is a bit wider than most companies, and the Goddess of the Month program ensures a steady supply. I use many of them as less-pigmented eyeshadows - they’re not as colorsaturated as most eyeshadows, true; but I effectively pay a lower cost-per-gram than I do for the eyeshadows, and I know that they won’t have totally opaque color payoff.

I own just under half of these. I don't know how many more I'll buy, but when I do buy them, I usually buy multiples so that I have one for the face, and one in a 10-gram jar for my lids.

While assembling this list, I looked at the vendor's site, and crosschecked that against blog reviews and my own purchase history. While many did have the year listed on their catalog page, not all did...and sometimes I had to guess at which August, which October. I think I have most of the years correct. I also couldn't find any Goddesses for a three-month period. According to the blog, the shop was closed for the month of January 2016. I can also see that, because moves are hectic enough, February 2016 may not have had a color. I'm less sure about December 2015, though.
