More Pretties from Darling Girl Cosmetics

Y'all know by now that I can ever stay away from Darling Girl Cosmetics for very long! With such gorgeous, complex, jaw droppingly beautiful shades - who could? I love browsing the site looking at the swatches and making a mental note of what to order next...that's such a typical #bblogger way to waste some time!

Anyhoo, I ordered a few shades I wouldn't usually wear as well as some I knew I would love, as well as a primer.

 Everything arrived neatly wrapped, with two free samples and a 'Gift With Purchase' (free product with orders over $10). Lets have a look at the shades I chose...

PERSUASION - A delicate, pale purple with LOTS of soft gold sparkle. To my eyes, the gold seems to shift to pale green in different lights. This is a shade that you definitely need to pat on to avoid patchiness.

OBVIOUSLY A WIG - A strong blue - magenta duochrome which has had many bloggers going a bit gaga! Over a sticky base, this is seriously intensive on the colour shifting! Magenta, blue, wine, purple...

DIE, DIE MY DARLING - Even if this had been the most hideous shade on the planet, I would have bought it. Why? Because it was inspired by The Misfits, who I have loved ever since I was about 13! Luckily, it's a striking shade of green with an incredible plum duochrome. The duochrome is just as impressive (if not more so) that that in 'Obviously A Wig' - fo' real. Unfortunately I failed to capture it very well *sigh*

CHEMICAL WARFARE - As part of the 'Darling Grrl' punk rock themed collection, I'm going to assume 'Chemical Warfare' was inspired by Slayer...even if Slayer aren't exactly punk rock! A yellow toned golden green with contrasting blue sparkles...or is it a green gold? I can't decide!

LUCKY - I thought 'Lucky' would be a straight up green 'whisper' colour...but I was very, very wrong. First off, it's more turquoise is anything - quite like Sugarpill 'Lumi'. Secondly, it seems to have a subtle pinky shift to it. Third, it's full of sparkle. Fourth, it's kick ass over a black base (pic above). It's very pretty, though, I think I'll be getting more from the 'Rainbow Brite' collection!

ON-X - I received a free sample of 'On-X' with one of my past orders and simply had to own a mini jar! 'On-X' is a sheer black with a tonne of multi-coloured sparkle. It takes on a slight purpley hue in some lights, but I think that's from all the pink sparkle piled in there. I FREAKIN' LOVE IT.

And so, my adoration for Darling Girl products grows a little stronger :) Every shade I ordered was 10x more impressive that I'd imagined. I'll let you know what I think to the primer once I've tested it some more.
