Well hello, lovers of make-up!!
Today I have for your some swatches of lip products that I bought from Evil Shades. (I bought them, they were not provided to me, except for Zicke which was a free sample.)
My order contained more than just lip stuffs, but I didn't have time to swatch that stuff yesterday. So, you get lip stuff first.
The Company: Andrea is super awesome and sweet! Go follow her on Twitter! (And me, for that matter.)
Shipping: Super quick! My order, with custom eyeshadow, shipped the next day! Hooray! :D The only thing was that some of my shadows were escaping from their jars. :[ I think next time I will ask for sifters if she has them available.
Prices: Holy canolies?! REALLY?! That was my reaction when I saw her prices. I bought one Large Gift set and one Mini Set for, I think $22. Two lipsticks, four lipglosses, five shadows. Glosses are $3.50, lipsticks are $4.75, and shadows are $3.50, and all are pretty gosh ding dang amazing!! Here is the link again: Evil Shades. She does have blushes which I will probably order samples of next time I order.

The Products:
Lip Glosses:
- Cushiony
- These may or may not be sticky to some people. I don't usually have a problem with stickiness since my hair tends to be short and I don't get hair on my lips very often.
- Very high gloss! Love it.
- Moisturizing
- Smell is fantastic!! Yum!
- I am so/so on the jar. I kind of like it because these are the kind of glosses/lip products I can see actually wanting to use a brush with, espcially the color "Deadly."
Lethal Kiss - "Peachy Shimmer" (from EvilShades.com)
To me, this is a pinky, peachy color that doesn't amp up the color of my lips the way Guilty as Sin does. I really like it as an everyday gloss. The shimmer is subtle but it also has silver sparkles in it, which is a cute added touch! You can kind of see them on the edges of my lips.
Guilty as Sin - "Pink/Fuschia with glass fleck" (from EvilShades.com)
This is pink. Awesome sparkly, shimmery fuschia-y pink. I really like the way it pinks up my lips and seems to me to have a little blue reflectiveness to it, in the shimmer. I see myself wearing this one for sure.
More after the jump
Deadly - Deep dark red with sparkle** Contains Carmine, not Vegan. (from EvilShades.com)
Deadly looks very unwearable inside the jar, however once I tried it, VERY LIGHTLY, with not a whole lot of product on my lip brush, it came out as the swatch below. I'd like to do a more vampy type swatch, soon. Maybe with an FOTD.
My pictures are more purpley
Lip Sticks:
- Moisturizing
- Pigmented
- Buildable (with blotting and reapplication)
- Would look amazing with a lip gloss layered over the top
- Price is fantastic: $4.75 for a lip-balm type container full
Zicke, which means "Bitch", is a very insteresting silverly lilac color. It was fun to try on, definitely something I would wear as a statement or if I needed a metallic addition to another lipstick.
Evil Shades - Primrose Path My favorite so far! I applied this on naked lips, no balm or anything underneath.
Diabolical: I had a hard time getting this one to photograph as red as I think it is, but it certainly is coppery. I like it, but the pink is still my favorite so far. Evil Shades has an orange lipstick I really want to try. Ee! I really like that it isn't a matte lipstick. I personally don't like matte lipsticks a whole lot, only because they seem more drying, but these ones are not drying, but really have a great color pay-off.
This shade is soooo hard to capture!! Must try again.
This is Cacau. I'm using other google account atm...
ReplyDeleteOmg! Deadly looks so hot on you! O.O I want to try it too!! omg!
Diabolical looks like a prety coper shade! Is it like this?
Hm... I want to try evil shades lip things someday *-*
Oh, still Cacau here, I forgot to ask:
ReplyDeleteHow are their lipglosses? Supersticky? Soft?
And the lipsticks? Are they moisturizing? o.o
Thanks for the swatches!! The colors are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteHi Cacau!! Deadly is sooo awesome! I was very surprised at how well it goes on for being so pigmented. They are soft, not super sticky, maybe just a little bit. I plan to do a review soon. Andrea, the owner, wanted me to post pics, so I did. :D The glosses are also very moisturizing, I like them a lot.
ReplyDeleteThe lipsticks are smooth and pigmented, also moisturizing. Diabolical is coppery, and to me in person has a little more red than the pictures. My camera just really wanted to pick up the copper in it.
I say: Hell yes, go get them, especially since they are not expensive. Very good quality for the money. And the owner, Andrea, is super sweet. :D
Thanks for stopping in, Julissa!! :D
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Evil Shades! I now see some glosses I need to pick up.
ReplyDeleteYay! I am glad I could help you!! :D
ReplyDeleteIii looove these! I llike the fuscia one, the dark one, and primrose path. they look amazing on you!
ReplyDeleteThese all look amazing on you! Evil Shades is one of my favourite indie companies. I love the glosses and shadows i have, but haven't tried the lipsticks yet. Zicke and Diabolic look absolutely amazing on you! And so does Deadly, very vampy :)
