I'm still trying to catch up with the plethora of reviews I have lined up. Today I have six shadows from Glamour Doll Eyes. Their owner, Vee, called out to bloggers asking if we were interested in reviewing their shadows. I was definitely interested, but I had reviewed their shadows before and asked if it was okay to do another. Vee responded and said it was fine, so we sent a few emails back and forth with my color choices. GDE has a lot of color choices and it's a bit overwhelming to pick just six, luckily Vee sent me a link to the Bestsellers section and that was very helpful. I chose six out of the Bestsellers and she had it packed and ready to go soon after.
I have a good amount of GDE shadows from past purchases, press samples, and samples from subscription boxes so I was aware of how nice the shadows were. I also like the fact that they each come individually shrink wrapped to prevent leakage. They also have no sifters and I find that it's much easier to work without since I find that product tends to collect at the rims and spill out. Anywho, onto the swatches!

Flawless |
Flawless: shimmery light peachy pink
|
Vulnerable |
Vulnerable: shimmery rose champagne
|
Flaunt |
Flaunt: beautiful taupe with slight red sheen
|
Fiji Mermaid |
Fiji Mermaid: beautiful shimmery blue-green. This color is very oceanic and I absolutely love how much it glows. I wasn't going to get this one because blues don't go well with me, but there's enough green to offset that. I'm so glad I got this one as it's become a favorite of mine!
|
Feline Fatale |
Feline Fatale: pretty purple. It's very reminiscent of the old school Catwoman outfit. I mainly got this shade because I'm a huge fan of Catwoman and I usually have to get anything inspired by her. I do think I prefer her newer black outfits though, they make more sense for a cat burglar..
|
Undead |
Undead: gorgeous matte black base with red shimmer. I also can't resist shades like this; it's so pigmented and beautiful. I love how I can see the redness even without a sticky base!
|
Daylight: Flawless, Vulnerable, Flaunt, Fiji Mermaid, Feline Fatale, Undead |
|
Flash: Flawless, Vulnerable, Flaunt, Fiji Mermaid, Feline Fatale, Undead |
I'm really thankful that Vee let me do another review for them and I hope this one didn't disappoint! All of these shades are amazingly pigmented, smooth, and silky. If they are anything like the other shades I own, they are most likely easy to blend also. My favorites out of this bunch are Flaunt, Fiji Mermaid, and Undead. I know I'd be ordering more from GDE if not for the sheer overwhelming number of choices, but the Bestsellers list is a great place to start! I'm very excited to wear these out and I'm sure Fiji Mermaid will make a
stunning lid color.
