Notoriously Morbid’s Battalions of Sorrow

This reminds me strongly of TSS’ Rethink Beauty and Aromaleigh’s Angelica, but this is a softer and slightly warmer version. It’s got great color payoff, and it blends okay. There is shimmer in this, but it’s a bit scattered, so if you prefer to wear matte eyeshadows...

Notoriously Morbid’s Dover Demon

I like the concept of this color, but it applies fairly close to sheer. In that, it reminds me a bit of BE’s Chameleon: looked like a strong blue in the pot, but didn’t have the strongest color payoff. The silver-grey tones made me think of BE’s...

Sigil Inspired’s Magician of Fire

Sigil Inspired has amazing photography, but it won't always hide when something is a near-exact match for a mica colorant from TKB Trading. This is one such case. Magician of Fire looks very close to Cinderella...close enough that I'm unafraid to say, this is possibly what it is. And...

elf’s Makeup Remover Cleansing Cloths

I love these!! They’re inexpensive, they’re sturdy, the packaging is excellent. The makeup remover fluid does work to take off makeup, even waterproof makeup. Just hold it to your face or eye for about 30 seconds to let the remover penetrate and break down the makeup, then wipe away....

Color Club’s Look Don’t Tusk

I passed on this one when it initially came out because so many of the photos that I saw made this look a bit to muddy or yellowed for my preferences - or it looked like a basic white creme. Turns out… a) those weren’t the best photos and...

Sally Hansen’s Mauve Over (189)

This is a lovely “neutral” / softer red shade. I would almost call it an “office-safe red”. The coverage is great, it levels out like a dream, and this is part of the current regular lineup rather than being a seasonal shade. It looks great for late summer/autumn: a transitional...

Sleek Makeup’s Acid i-Divine palette

I love bright colors when they’re saturated and fairly well pigmented. The Acid palette looks very attractive, and if a few of the shadows aren’t truly “neon”, they’re all bright shades with good color payoff. (The Revolution Acid Brights palette, which was a dupe of this one,...

TKB Trading’s Basic Colors #2 collection

Nine mica colorants grouped together because they’re a solid “starter” set for someone making their own makeup or soap or other crafts that use colorants. Most of these are pretty saturated - even Lucky, a lighter shade. My question about this collection is…whatever happened to Basic Colors #1? I...

L’Oréal’s Infallible 24HR Eye Shadow in Gold Imperial (407)

Yes, all of the squares in the montage-photo are the same eyeshadow - in different states. This one has so many faces! In the pot it looks pinkish-brown, applied dry it’s more of an orange-gold, foiled it’s a yellow-gold. (Oh, and by the way: foiling these eyeshadows is...
