This color isn't back up on the website, but I hope it is soon. This is a really great neutral shade with a shimmer finish. No ashy undertones, not overly bright, has excellent color payoff. I often wear this with Illusion (another BFTE color that I hope makes a reappearance...
When I first started buying Sugarpill's Chroma Lust loose-powder eyeshadows, and swatched them, I didn't understand the excitement for them, particularly for Goldilux. The first colors that I tried out were not the best in terms of color payoff, and so I wondered…these are bloggers who I know personally....
This is like a deeper, richer version of Love Hues' Gold-Spun Peach. I love that it's a deeper coral-peach base shade with good color payoff, and a liberal duotone gold shimmer on top of that. The color payoff is good, the shimmer is very visible without overwhelming or obscuring the...
These three colors - Orange Sunrise, Jade Sunrise, Amethyst Sunrise - were photographed in such a way that they appeared to have stronger interference effects, than what I saw on either of them. They're decent enough colors, but there is less interference than the shop photos suggested. Amethyst Sunrise is...
BFTE Cosmetics re-opened with a new collection of neutrals. While we wait for the shop to slowly fill up, we’ve got this kit to play with! The theme is similar to the first Coffee Shop kit: four neutrals, ranging in finish. These all look like they’re truly neutral,...
Another of the “unblended micas” from BFTE - the color hadn't been changed, but ingredients had been added to help with adhesion and application. I know how to wear straight mica, so I most often avoided buying these unblended micas from BFTE if I was able to spot the duplicate....
I like this shade - it's got enough depth for easy definition, but it's not just a straight black. When I originally saw this, I thought that this might be Aubergine, renamed. That color doesn't have the blackening, though, and is a bit warmer than this one. Black Amethyst is...
That color description should read “in theory.” Almost nothing showed up on my lids, even after two layers. The swatch photo required a lot of back-and-forth to get some color payoff. I really wanted to like this color, because the shade is great - a dark-but-not-blackened medium-deep blue, with a...
Very slight coral tones, but not enough to make it lean orange…and a faint mauve base, from what I'm seeing. I think this shade will work well with most skintones, except perhaps deep olive undertones. (But even then it might work. This blush looks to be amazingly flexible!!)
