Swatch Spam! Evil Shades Cosmetics

Good evening Zombies!

We're rapidly approaching Christmas, ready or not! We have all of our shopping done and now the oldest is off for Winter break. What to do, what to do? Hot chocolate, movies, and warm clothes. YAY!



Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And auld lang syne?

For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne,
We'll tak a cup of kindness yet,
For auld lang syne!

And there's a hand my trusty fiere,
And gie's a hand o thine,
And we'll tak a right guid-willie waught,
For auld lang syne

For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne,
We'll tak a cup of kindness yet,
For auld lang syne!

I recently placed an order with Evil Shades Cosmetics because I'd been lusting over the eyeshadow "Cheshire." I ordered the Winks and Kisses set and was able to choose an extra one because of the buy 2 get 1 free sale. Andrea (whom I adore) threw in the new Auld Lang Syne collection in sample clam shells from me to try as well as a Gossamar blush (Soft baby pink with blue shift) I've been hearing raves about.

I had to swatch the eyeshadow right away for you! I will swatch/use the lipsticks soon for everyone to see, as well as the blush.





I purchased:

(descriptions from website)

Cheshire: Medium/Dark Purple with pink undertones and pink shimmer.(My favorite from this group)
Suffocation: Medium pink with blue/purple undertones. (love love love!) I have the lip gloss to match!
Illusive: A red based matte purple
Sylph: Light powdery teal with a pink shift (so pretty and soft)
Corruption lippie: Deep purple with aqua sparkle (this one hated me.. I could not get it to stay on my lips at full coverage for anything. I'll have to play with this with a lip liner. It's such a pretty color.)
Bane lippie: Bright pink with blue/violet undertone( light and creamy)

Descriptions of Auld Lang Syne from the website:

Aureate- A vibrant golden with silver shimmer
Wishing Tree- Deep complex forest green with sparkling bright green shimmer
Cranberry Champagne- A deep cranberry with red tones and golden shimmer (This color is beautiful!)
Polestar- Deepest night sky blue with a purple shift and twinkling starry silver sparkles (My favorite from this group!)
Filigree- Shimmering bronze with delicate multi color shimmer
Lucia- A bright bold red with bright pink shimmer and a subtle violet shift (intense!)

**Some time ago, I purchased Suffocation lipgloss and when I received it, it had an odd taste to it. (Like I said, I'm crazy with smells and tastes. Sometimes over the top. I mentioned this to Andrea, and with this last order she included a new lipgloss. I'd forgotten all about this! Kick ass customer service anyone?!

I adore Evil Shades and the new collection is worth checking out. Evil Shades is having a buy 2 get 1 free sale on Auld Lang Syne until tomorrow 12/20/2010, so I suggest you go pickup your goodies NOW!
