Sneak Peek! Darling Girl Cosmetics "The Black Collection"

Double blog post today! This time I have another sneak peek of an upcoming Darling Girl collection for you. Also set to launch sometime in September with the "Who Ya Gonna Call?" collection, "The Black Collection" is based of of the popular TV show Orange is the New Black. I"m going to be honest and tell you all that I have never actually seen the show. I'd like to see it, but without access to a decent internet connection, I can't use anything like Netflix to get caught up on the series :( Not seeing the show isn't going to stop me from loving these new shades though, even if I don't get the meaning behind their names!

Keep reading for the swatches!

EOTD: A Painted World

Hey everyone! Today I just have a quick EOTD post for you featuring A Painted World from Darling Girl Cosmetics. Yesterday I decided to inventory all of my DG eyeshadows, and I realized that I have never actually used this gorgeous shadow- I only swatched it! Have you ever done that before, bought something and totally never got around to using it?

For the crease and highlight I used some shadows from the Lorac Pro Palette 2 (Buff to highlight, Light Brown as a transition shade, Cool Gray in the crease, and Navy right in the socket to add depth. I also used a bit of navy on the outer lower lashline.) Then I applied Darling Girl's A Painted World on the lid wet, using MAC Fix+. On the lower lashline, I applied A Painted World dry. I also used a little Darling Girl Whitelighter in the inner corner, its a super gorgeous silver! Liner is my  usual Urban Decay Perversion.

Hope you all enjoyed this quick little post! :)

Hello everyone! Today I have a swatch post for you featuring the newest Darling Girl Cosmetics collection, One Hit Wonders V.1 The 80's! Each shadow was inspired by a popular song of the 80's. I wasn't alive during the 80's, but I will admit I love the music!

Peacock Inspired Look With Darling Girl Cosmetics

Today I wanted to do a look with some bright colors, so I looked to my Darling Girl collection and grabbed the first few colors that stood out to me. The colors I picked reminded me of the beautiful colors of a peacock!

If you'd like to see what I used to create this bright and colorful look, keep reading after the break :)

Showstopper Purples!

Hello everyone! Today I am going to share with you this gorgeous purple look using Darling Girl Cosmetics. After I organized all my indie eye shadows by color the other day, I realized that I have a bunch of shadows that I haven't even used yet! I'm going to work on fixing that problem, though!!!

Here's the look that I created today. If you want to see what I used and how to do it, keep reading after the break! :)

EOTD: Indigo

Sorry for the lack of posts guys. I've been pretty busy with work and stuff. We have some lovely snow and ice all over the roads right now, so I figured since I am going in to work late, that I would get a new blog post up. 

This look features Indigo from Darling Girl Cosmetics. It's a really awesome shadow that looks white in the jar, but transforms into a gorgeous purple when placed over a dark base. Indigo is part of the Rainbow Brite collection, in which all of the shadows transform in a similar manner. 

EOTD: Blind Ralphie

I'm in a group on Facebook where a lot of green looks are being done lately, so I thought I would do one, too. The standout shade in this look is Blind Ralphie from Darling Girl Cosmetics. This shade will be my Pick of the Week when the shop reopens after Christmas, which means it will be on sale!

Blue and Brown, A Favorite Combo

I really love pairing blue/teal on the lid with brown in the crease. It's a color combo that I find myself using often. Today's blue and brown combo is done with shadows from Darling Girl Cosmetics.

Anyway, today I am excited to bring you swatches of the new Darling Girl Cosmetics 'Twas the Night Before Christmas' collection. This collection includes eight eye shadows and one blush. This post will be focusing on the eye shadows. (I'm new to actually swatching shadows and photographing them, sorry if the quality isn't perfect.)
