Detrivore Cosmetics had a customer appreciation sale a while ago, a very generous 50% off! I got some colours I'd been eyeing, as well as a jar of their Translucent Powder, primer and Embalming tubes (lip balm). I'll be reviewing everything, but thought I should start with some eyeshadow swatches.
"Revenant is a deep green satin eye shadow."

Lovely blue-toned medium green. I don't think I have anything like this in my collection.
"Parasite is a bright green satin with a ton of shimmer."

Fairly similar to Revenant on the skin, this is brighter and more yellow-based.
"Dreary is a dark gray eye shadow."

The website description for this one isn't very good. Dreary is a deep matte charcoal with tiny silver glitter. I would recommend using this over a sticky base to hold the glitter on. If you use Pixie Epoxy, make sure to let it 'set' before applying Dreary, I got a bit of patchiness on the right side of my swatch.
All the colours were wonderfully pigmented and smooth. I love the names Detrivore uses - so unusual and wonderfully morbid! :)
Did you jump on the Detrivore sale? I've got two more posts of eyeshadow swatches coming!
Congrats on #300!
ReplyDeleteI really like Detrivore. I don't think they get enough love.
