04.01.013 - Pink Culture Cosmetics

I've never heard of Pink Culture Cosmetics until I joined an FB group. The owner, Brittany, was working on some new products and new photography for her store. There were a few colors I wanted to try out and that's when I made my first order.
It didn't take long for my order to arrive, in fact it shipped the day after I ordered. 

It came packaged in this adorable pink vinyl (?) drawstring bag. I'm totally keeping it O_O;;; to use for other things!

I ordered five full-sizes and received 3 samples (clamshells).

 Here's the business card...


Everything is swatched over UDPP and under an LED light (as we were having WONDERFUL thunder and lightning storms *shivers at the thought*)

I started with the samples first...
 Trout

 Widow Paris
 Widow Paris

 Goddess
 Goddess

 L-R: Trout, Widow Paris, and  Goddess

 Trout
 Trout - I was surprised that this was a green color. It looked like a warm gray in the jar; but it's a warm green-gray with golden shimmers. 

 Widow Paris
 Widow Paris - This is a tan with purple sparkles

 Goddess
 Goddess is a muted taupe color that has a slight golden sheen and golden shimmers.

Now, onto the full-sizes

 Oracle

 Marron

 Doubloom
Doubloom

 L-R: Oracle, Marron, and Doubloom

 Oracle
 Oracle - Another color I was NOT expecting. In the jar, it looks like a plum-taupe with aqua shimmers. But swatched, it's a warm brown with a strong green duochrome and aqua shimmers.

 Marron
 Marron - Another taupe color (we need all the taupes!) which has a slight red sheen and purple shimmers. Really pretty :)

 Doubloom
 Doubloom - Lavender with a red duochrome and shimmers.

 Olympia
Olympia

 Meraux
 Meraux

 L-R: Olympia and Meraux

 Olympia
 Olympia - Warm taupe (*cough* lol! Yep, another one :D~) with a turquoise duochrome and shimmers

 Meraux
Meraux - Rose with a billion (not really?) aqua shimmers

I think Pink Culture Cosmetics is AWESOME! ^_^; Shipping time was fast! Colors are gorgeous!!!! The texture of the eyeshadows are very smooth, creamy, and blendable (is that a word?). 

Right now, she's having a 20% off (with purchase of $10 or more) with the coupon code: PINKSPRING

Ends April 30, 2013.
