Swatch Spotlight! Persephone Minerals!

Good morning Zombies!

I wanted to first say a big "THANK YOU AND WELCOME" to all my newest followers!

Recently I was sent 5 samples from Persephone Mineral's Sailor Senshi "The Mars" collection for review. The reason I was itching to try these out was because of Mars Crystal Power. I'd seen swatches all over the internetz and it was calling my name. It's a gorgeous pink with orange shift. I love it!

My favorites from this collection are Mars Cystal Power and Mars Flame Sniper (burnt Orange with red and gold glitter, FTW!)








Color descriptions taken from Etsy store:

***PRINCESS MARS***
Just a soft touch of super shimmering red, inspired by the dress of Princess Mars. **Princess Mars is lip safe but not vegan**
INGREDIENTS: mica, titanium dioxide, magnesium stearate, bismuth oxychloride, iron oxide, calcium aluminum borosilicate, silica, tin oxide, carmine

***REI*** (photo 2)
Inspired by Rei's never-ending purple-tinged black hair, this shade is a deep, dark blackened purple full of microfine black and purple glitters.**Rei is lip safe but not vegan**
INGREDIENTS: mica, titanium dioxide, iron oxide, carine, polyethylene terephthalate(cosmetic glitter)

***MARS CRYSTAL POWER*** (photo 1)
Inspired by the pink & gold crystal power wands and the transformation sequence of Sailor Mars. This is one hell of a duochrome shift from bright red to gold, chock full of pink and gold sparkle! It looks like a pinkish color in the jar, but do not let that fool you! **Mars Crystal Power is lip safe, but not vegan**
INGREDIENTS: mica, titanium dioxide, tin oxide, carmine, calcium aluminum borosilicate,

***SAILOR MARS*** (photo 3)
This is an extremely bright red with purple microfine glitters, inspired by the sailor soldier uniform of Sailor Mars ;)**Sailor Mars is lip safe but not vegan**
INGREDIENTS: mica, iron oxide, carmine, polyethylene terephthalate(cosmetic glitter)

***MARS FLAME SNIPER!*** (photo 4)A nice deep red, overloaded with red, orange, and gold microfine glitters, inspired by the attack of Super Sailor Mars. This makes one wicked liner!!

Have you tried Persephone Minerals? What are your favorite colors?

OH and because all of these companies coming out with "geek chic" eyeshadow it got me pondering, WHEN is someone going to come up with World of Warcraft themed eyeshadow?!

  1. YES I love all the ones I tried from Persephone. I have the Mercury and Venus ones, and Mercury Crystal Power is the most beautiful color everrrr. I think I like all of the "crystal power" ones. Mars is next on my list. :D

  9. You are so welcome! I'm dying to get a hold of it. I haven't seen a D&D collection yet but I'm sure it could be requested from someone. I don't know D&D that much but all too familiar with WoW and LOTRO. It's cool to see all these makeup bloggers who are game geeks like I am. hehe

  10. I really want Mars Crystal Power too... does she sell them in singles on their own or just sets?

    Also... I want SOMEONE to do a Star Wars collection. SRSLY.
