One thing I've had a really tough time finding from any makeup brand is a beautiful rich green. There are many wonderful chartreuses, sages and even blackened emeralds. But rich jeweled greens are few and far between. Just so happens that two of the prettiest greens I've ever seen come from Geek Chic Cosmetics.
Geek Chic Collections are built around various aspects of social geekery and the shadows are amazing. They are rich, complex and a breeze to work with. Complicated shadows have a tendency to be tricky to work with, but I've found Geek Chic shadows are not overly temperamental.
Last Best Hope is a Geek Chic Cosmetics collection based off the sci-fi show Babylon 5, which is ridiculously hard to rent...thank you very much.
We Are One
We Are One is a medium golden olive w/ multi color sparkle
Perhaps
Perhaps is an olive/sage green shimmer over a reddish brown charcoal base
Would You Prefer Ferrets
Would You Prefer Ferrets is a rich olive/army green w/ gold and green sparkles
Final Thoughts
This is another stellar (har har) group of shadows from Geek Chic Cosmetics. I wonder why more people don't make greens like these because they are versatile or gorgeous! All the above shadows have a plush texture and keep their complexity throughout application. We Are One and Would You Prefer Ferrets are hands down the prettiest greens I own. They have so much life and fire..... stunning. If you like green shadows then you really,
really need to buy these.
Where to buy:
Geek Chic Cosmetics
Price: Samples $1.25 in a plastic clamshell or Full Sized $5.99 in a 5 gram jar
We Are One is rather pretty. I do think Geek Chic has some stunning ones, Inevitable Betrayal is my favourite so far :)
ReplyDeleteI love green eyeshadow, and Perhaps seems like a very wearable but pretty shade.
ReplyDeleteThey are so pigmented
