Darling Girl Cosmetics review

I actually placed two orders with Darling Girl Cosmetics before doing this review, because for some reason I ordered almost all brown shades on my first order. So having bought from this company twice, I can say the website is very nice and easy to navigate. Prices are fantastic. A sample baggie is 60 cents, a 3 gram jar is $2, and a full size in a 5 gram jar is $4- these prices are for both eyeshadows and blushes. Tinted lip balms are $4.50, and lip gloss is $5.50. Susan also has a blog where she does swatches and FOTD's. I got my orders shipped out almost immediately after ordering, which is of course very appreciated. They also each came with a free eyeshadow sample, and a free tinted lip balm sample. Here are swatches of all the shadows I have. All shadow swatches are over Concrete Minerals Electric Eye Primer. Top 3: Poetic Pink, Kindle, Fever Bottom 3: Exhale, Frolic, Electric Lady Exhale is such a unique color, it's a light purple with an intense blue shift. You can see some of it in this next picture, but for a better look, check out Wendi's blog. Top 3: Twyla, Mojito, Mardi Gras Bottom 3: Covet, Aerial, Dark Knight Aerial is a hard color to photograph. It's blue, lavender, and grey all in one. I really love Dark Knight, because it's a shiny black based blue/purple that actually stays looking blue/purple when applied, and not just black. Top 2: Chai, Cydonia Bottom 2: Oracle, Miss Me As someone who is avid reader of Pink Sith's "Taupes You Can't Have" series, I am always on the hunt for my perfect taupe. Many have tried, all have failed... until now. Oracle is the most beautiful, perfect taupe in the world. Here's another picture so you can bask in its glory. I feel like it's too powerful for my eyes to comprehend, like in Supernatural how everyone has to look away from the angel's light. But I never want to look away from this bebe :D I ordered a couple blush samples, both colors are really nice. Left is Pink Outrage, right is Impetuous. Not blended in, obviously. So, this all seems pretty awesome right? But wait, there's more (please imagine that being said Billy Mays style)! I haven't even told you my favorite part yet. ^O^ <--- That's how excited I am. My favorite Darling Girl product, which I may love even more than Oracle, the most perfect of all taupes... TINTED LIP BALM IN "FAITH"! This is my new favorite lip product. I wear it almost every day. Not only is it my MLBB (my lips but better) shade, but it's super moisturizing, and when the balminess fades away, my lips are still slightly stained. It is so awesome, I ordered another one in the shade Sassy. I've swatched them for you here, along with my free sample balms. Top 2: Faith, Sassy Bottom 2: Brazen Berry, Athena I. want. every. color. Here's an idea of what they look like in terms of size: I love the packaging, it's such a nice and simple tube. Seriously, I can't rave about these enough. I have a feeling I'm going to have a stupid big collection of these by the time this year is over. Here's a simple, work-appro EOTD I did this morning. Lid colors are Chai and Electric Lady, with Cydonia in the crease and Hi Fi's Eat Me Drink Me as the highlight. Susan has really impressed me so far. Although not all of the colors are complex, they are all pretty, and there's certainly some stand out shades. There's a great selection of colors, and neutrals, a wide variety of blush colors, and of course the amazing lip balms! I didn't get any gloss, so I'm looking forward to trying that out on my next order. Have you tried Darling Girl yet? Are you going to? How many balms will you buy and send me? >:D
