Darling Girl Cosmetics Review and !SWATCHES!

Good evening Zombies!

I hope you're all doing well today. I had a nice weekend, but didn't have much motivation to post.. So now, I have a backlog of things I OMGWANTOSHOWYOUNOW!  I received in the mail today samples from Susan at Darling Girl Cosmetics (free for review purposes only) and I'm excited to introduce you to this new little gem of a company. It's not every day that I'm easily inspired and/or intrigued. Hell, sometimes it takes a lot to get me motivated. But when I swatched these colors, I just couldn't wait to show everyone. I'd about settled in a for a night of WoW!  Aren't you glad I didn't. hehe

I first heard of Darling Girl Cosmetics on Phyrra's blog and did like some of the purples I saw on the website. But seeing the colors in real life, they are vibrant and gorgeous, and just unique enough to leave me wanting more. The colors are smooth and not too glittery, but not dull. They are smooth and were easily swatched over NYX Jumbo pencil in "Milk", Each color has great pigmentation and staying power. The colors are really so unique that I can't stop staring at my hand, because I pick up hints of different colors in each shade each time I look at them. Gorgeous! 

I received: (by choice of Susan. Descriptions are from the website.)

"Incognito": Beautiful deep magenta with metallic shimmer.
"Electric Lady": Velvety lavender with a slight silver sheen
"Mojito": Silky teal on the blue side with a silver shimmer and a satin pearl finish.
"Exhale": Looks lavender/pink in the jar but when applied it is a faint pink with strong blue/violet sheen (LOVELOVELOVE!)
"Masquerade": Plum taupe with golden sheen and gleaming turquoise shimmer (BEAUTIFUL!)

Blush in "Bliss": Gorgeous vibrant pink warmed just slightly with a golden halo. (LOVELOVELOVE!)



Three convenient sizes: (as per the website)
Full size♥ 5 gram jar with approximately ¾ of a tsp of product. $4.00
Petit ♥ 5 gram jar with approximately ¼ tsp. of product. $2.00
Sample ♥ Zip lock baggie with approximately 1/8 of a tsp of product.
  Samples are .60!! How right on is that?!

Make sure you check out this amazing little company and tell her Makeup Zombie sent you!

I give Darling Girl Cosmetics 5 out of 5 Zombies!
