Swatch Fest - Darling Girl Cosmetics

Hello Lovelies

I just thought I'd share some swatches from my most recent Darling Girl Cosmetics haul - I utterly love this company. Susan is so utterly talented and her eyeshadows are incredible. And just in case you're wondering, yes I have already swatched one of these colours before - I just chose to buy it in a slightly bigger size this time (and a bonus point if you can tell me which it was - this is my last Darling Girl post)

Aren't they pretty?! I primed my hand with Fyrinnae's Pixie Epoxy first :)
Top Row (L-R):
Chococat - my pictures have brought out a lot of the gold in this but it actually has a rich chocolately brown base with a gorgeous greeny gold infused finish
Electra - yellow and gold infused lime green. One of my favourite colours I own.
Dragonwasp (GWP) - teal green with hints of peach and gold

Bottom Row (L-R):
Turtledove - dove grey with a hint of mauve and gold sparkle
Firefly - pinky lilac with a blue duochrome
Landry (Hello Kitty Collection - sample) - utterly wonderful chocolatey plum with a petal pink finish

Side stripe:
Kiss Me Tinted Lip Balm in Sassy (sample)

Bottom stripe:
Liquid Kisses in First Kiss

Just a not on the Liquid Kisses - hurrah! I've finally found an indie lip product I love! This is not quite gloss but not quite lipstick - it's somewhere in between and it's utterly lovely! I'm a complete eyeshadow junkie so I have to really force myself to try lip products but I think I might end up getting myself a few of these because they're truly fab.

Have you tried Darling Girl yet? What do you think? Any colours that you'd recommend me trying next?

(Not so recent) Fyrinnae Haul

I think it's about a gazillion years since I got this haul, but it came when my camera wasn't sans XD card! However, my XD card finaly arrived (and I almost sobbed with joy), so now I can share my Fyrinnae prettiness with you all. All pictures were taken in natural daylight and all swatches were dry and unprimed (It was a bit of a hellish swatching day ... everytime I used Pixie Epoxy the pictures came out weird, but I might end up adding some Epoxied swatches later on)

 

(L-R Row 1 Nonsense!, Delvian, Beholder, Fall from Grace

Row 2 Treacle Well, Ravens & Writing Desks, Rapunzel had Extensions, Banana Mochi, Chaotic Evil*

Row 3 Android Angel, Looking Glass, +20 Beautification, Curiouser and Curiouser, Adam and Steve's)

 

 
 

  

 

 

(If you click on the hand pictures, you'll get taken to a massive version of my hand but you'll also see the colours slightly better)

I think my favourites from this haul are Curiouser and Curiouser (such a gorgeous blue!) and Banana Mochi, but they're all lovely!

Have you ever tried Fyrinnae? If you have, what did you most recent haul from them include?

*Chaotic Evil was sent as a free sample with my order, all other shadows were paid for with my own pennies :D
