Scaredy Cat Cosmetics Followup Pictures

I said I'd post pictures of the eyeshadows I recieved today, so here they are. They're so tiny and cute! And the colors are so pretty!




Here's a size reference :)
Here are the swatches in artificial indoor light: Top Row L to R Nevermore, Smooze
Bottom Row: Peacock Blood, Caldonia, Keltoi

Here's with flash:



See how pretty! Also, for those of you who are wondering what that other swatch is at the top right, I was being clumsy and dropped my Dash Minerals container of Celery Shimmer in the sink, and most of the shadow went down the drain.I was really sad because I loved the color, but Keltoi is really similar, so the random swatch is the remainder of my Celery Shimmer for comparison :)

Two in One, with a little update: Scaredy Cat Cosmetics

I'm a little backed up on my themed looks. Not sure how, really, as I've been posting a ton lately. But nevertheless, I've got two that haven't been posted and I'm just going to bunch them together in this post. They're both Neverending Story - themed. The first is called The Neverending Story... go figure! I tried to capture the book's description of the book with this EOTD. Confusing? yes. It's supposed to be shimmery coppery silk, and the ink is in two colors: green and purple. I don't think I did too bad capturing it, but see for yourself!
I used:
1. Sun Silk - Dash*
2. Avian Shapeshifter - Fyrinnae
3. Avian Shapeshifter - Fyrinnae*
4. Immortality - Fyrinnae
5. Avian Shapeshifter - Fyrinnae
6. a. Celery Shimmer - Dash
6. b. Red Plum - Dash
7. S.S. Anne - Shiro
* - With a thin sweep of Faceted - Pure Luxe over the top for added shimmer











And the second look is called "All Those B's"
In this case, all those B's isn't referring to Bastian Balthazar Bux, but to Broken Glass, Brine, and Beetle. This is pretty much an all-Detrivore look, with a little Fyrinnae.
1. Broken Glass - Detrivore
2. Beetle - Detrivore
3. Brine - Detrivore
4. N/A
5. Beetle - Detrivore
6. NYC Black Eye Pencil (smudged)
7. Titania - Fyrinnae












As for the update, I heard about the 5 for 5 trial vial deal at Scaredy Cat Cosmetics and leapt at it. If you haven't seen their colors go check them out. They're gorgeous!

Really excited about those, and the packaging is ace. I love the cosmetic round so-and-so-gram jars, but Scaredy Cat packages their products in lovely decorated full sizes and the 1/4 tsp trial vials are little corked bottles!
