Hi-Fi Cosmetics Labyrinth Collection Swatches!
I was SO excited to get my huge Hi Fi order in the mail yesterday. Today I have the Labyrinth collection swatched for you, and sometime soon I'll have a bunch of new swatches from the Rockstar collection and the permanent collection!
You are warned here, this collection of colors is very complex and hard to get accurate pictures of. I highly suggest you just buy them all regardless of what you think of these swatches... ok, ok. Check out Painted Moogle's blog for some really great swatches of this collection. And of course, the Hi Fi etsy shop has swatches in their product listings, which is always so fantastically helpful for me.
From left to right: Magic Spell, Pale Jewel, Land Serene, Down In the Underground, Mornings of Gold
Pale Jewel looks so BRIGHTYELLOWOMG in these photos, but it's not. It's a beautiful pastel yellow, I don't have anything quite like it. Down In the Underground is IMPOSSIBLE to photograph! It is seriously the most incredible duochrome ever- dark green or purple depending on the light. I thought the swatches on the listing seemed exaggerated, but it truly does shift THAT much.
From left to right: Valentine Evenings, Slime & Snails, Lost & Lonely, Between the Stars, Crystal Moon
Valentine Evenings is another amazing color. It is red, bronze, and pink all at the same time. I can't wait to use it in a look. Slime & Snails is another crazy duochrome, it is a shimmery blue and an irridescent green at the same time. I tried taking a picture of the brush with pigment on it, the pigment in the bag, the outside of the bag, everything, but I just couldn't capture it's beauty, so here is the listing. Lost & Lonely is a pretty dark blue, another one that's hard to capture.
I'm sorry these swatches aren't the greatest, but these colors are seriously so beautiful, unique, and complex, take my word for it. The whole collection is definitely worth ordering, whether it be sample or full size. There are also some Labyrinth lippies I didn't pick up. If anyone has pictures of these, please share!

I wonder how pale jewel will look on my Asian skin tone...I haven't worn yellow before as they never show up on me!
ReplyDeleteGreat swatches! I had a really hard time capturing them with my camera too... they're just gorgeous in real life!
ReplyDeleteAnd seriously, Down in the Underground? Your description is spot on - it's the most amazing duochrome evah.
Oooh they all look so beautiful! I've just placed an order including a couple of these but now i fear i need them all! Got to love anything Labyrinth themed :P
ReplyDeleteI picked up 5 of these and I can't remember which.... I remember I got Valentine Evenings and Between the Stars.... Can't wait to get them!
ReplyDelete@Cacau: Oh you should place an order! Hi Fi is my favorite company. :)
ReplyDelete@Makeup Zombie: Lost & Lonely is SUCH a "you" color. You'll love it :D
@Jade Carver: Let it tempt you ;] It is seriously one of the coolest colors I have. Every color in this collection is amazing.
@Nea: Yay! Can't wait to see you do some looks with them!
@bowsnhearts: I think it would be fine as long as you use a good primer! Hi Fi also has their High Impact Shadow Fix which would REALLY step it up a notch.
@Painted Moogle: I wish my swatches would come out as vibrant as yours did, grr.
@Lillian: You do need them all! :D
@Robyn: Valentine Evenings is crazy amazing. It is so much all at once. This whole collection is so AWESOME!
Thanks for swatching these. I love Labyrinth and all things David Bowie. I didn't grab any of these during the last sale, I see another order list in my future!
ReplyDeleteOoh, I really like Crystal Moon. They're all so pretty though!
ReplyDeletepretty! I'm currently waiting for my first Hi Fi order ever. So excited :)
ReplyDeleteI ordered Mornings of Gold from the Labyrinth collection
I love between the stars and lost and lonely! Have you recovered from your cold?
ReplyDeleteDang, now I'm sad that I didn't order Down in the Underground!
ReplyDeleteThose are all so gorgeous! I can't wait to order some of them!!
ReplyDeleteThese look gorgeous! I don't think your swatches are bad at all. I just wish I wasn't on an epic no-buy :(
ReplyDeleteThanks for the great swatches! I'm going to place my first order soon. ^^
