Evil Shades Cosmetics: Hardcore Lips and Deviant Lipstick

As you know from my previous post, I recently placed on order with Evil Shades Cosmetics. I was going to do a giant post of awesomeness to show you all of the goodies I got but that would be so incredibly long that I decided to make separate posts for blush, lip products and eye products.

I ordered deviant lipstick samples in Corset and Mage which are packaged in the same clam shells as the eyeshadow and blush samples are. The hardcore lips samples are packaged in cylinder shaped containers which makes containing the gloss easier and makes it less likely that one will make a mess of their hands.... I ordered them in Roue, Dragon's Wing and Anastasia.

High Voltage Cosmetics: Eyeshadow and Magic Dust Swatches

I heard about High Voltage Cosmetics from a few blogs that I read regularly and once I visited their website I knew I had to try them. I was so excited when I saw their eyeshadow pigment grab bags. For $2.50, High Voltage will send you five 1/4th teaspoon baggies. That comes down to $0.50 a sample! I asked for a random selection and got a good variety of shadows. I ordered 15 samples and I'm happy with all of them. Some colors are basic while others are really unique. Overall, I would say that it was well worth the money. Each color is packaged in a little baggie with a name and ingredients sticker as the company is committed keeping samples at an affordable price for their customers. I also purchased a sample size of magic dust, their super sparkly highlighter.
