Evil Shades – Auld Lang Syne Collection Swatches

I know I’m very late swatching the Auld Lang Syne collection. I had company for 2 weeks s couldn’t really do much in the way of blogging. My favorites are Polestar, Cranberry Champagne and Lucia.

You can see how pretty Morose and Illusive are, too.

Cranberry Champagne and Lucia are really lovely. Filigree is a rich bronze that I need to try with Pixie Epoxy. Polestar is just OMG breathtaking. Wishing Tree and Aureate are nice but I’m not sure I’d wear them. Morose and Illusive have a nice, nearly matte finish and are really vibrant. Sovereign is a nice silver.

Shade Descriptions:
Cranberry Champagne- A deep cranberry with red tones and golden shimmer
Lucia- A bright bold red with bright pink shimmer and a subtle violet shift
Filigree- Shimmering bronze with delicate multi color shimmer
Polestar- Deepest night sky blue with a purple shift and twinkling starry silver sparkles
Wishing Tree- Deep complex forest green with sparkling bright green shimmer
Aureate- A vibrant golden with silver shimmer
Morose-Matte electric blue with subtle teal sparkle
Illusive- A red based matte purple
Soveriegn- Pure silver with multi colored sparkle

The full sizes were purchased by me. The samples were gifts. All opinions are my own.

      Thanks Erin! I think it’s the primer I used, it’s sticky.

    I bought Lucia and Cranberry Champagne but your swatches are making me regret I skipped Filigree. Guess I decided Meow’s Jerk from Caribbean is close enough but now I’m not so sure anymore.

    Hope I get mine soon!

      I hope they come soon, too!

    I kept trying to buy those colors after the New Year’s sale was announced, and my cart kept emptying. Tried five browsers and finally decided it was the makeup ghods telling me, “Enough already…” :D

      Yeah, the site was having a ton of issues during the sale! A lot of the items would also come up as unavailable in the cart for me, but I don’t think this happened for everyone which was odd.
      I contacted Andrea a few times, and she was very sweet to offer to invoice me for my order! If you ever have problems with the site again, just shoot her an email. She’s very prompt to reply and will gladly help you out :)
