Aromaleigh Cosmetics Minotaur Menagerie Swatches


Today I'm showing off swatches of Aromaleigh's most recent Menagerie based off of the Minotaur from Greek mythology.  I absolutely love their Menageries and I think this one might be my favorite yet!  It boasts a few beautiful duochromes, face products, and a gorgeous lip gloss.  I also bought the Goddess highlighter of that month based on Astraea.

Aromaleigh Medusa Menagerie Swatches


Hey everyone!  I have a small swatch post for you today of Aromaleigh's current Menagerie, based of Medusa.  Since cancelling the Ephemera, they've also announced the Menagerie will no longer be monthly but will be around every 45 days (please correct me if I'm wrong).  Even though this means less collections overall, it also means more time for me to save up money between collections.  There were several sneak peeks of the Medusa Menagerie and it seemed to be a purple and red leaning collection with a gloss and perfume.

Aromaleigh July 2015 Ephemera Swatches


Welcome back, everyone!  Today I have swatches of Aromaleigh's July Ephemera inspired by the great Nikola Tesla.  This is the second to last Ephemera box and that makes me very sad because it's one of my absolute favorite subscription boxes.  The level of attention and detail gone into the packaging is very obvious.  This box is a bit different than previous ones in that it doesn't include any face products.  Instead, it includes four eyeshadows, a lip balm, and a perfume sample.

Aromaleigh February 2015 Ephemera Box - Swatches and Review


Happy Valentine's Day again!  As I've said in my previous post, I'm spending V-Day alone, so I might as well catch up on February subscription boxes.  I have a brand new box for you guys this time!  Aromaleigh Cosmetics recently came out with their very own sub box called "Ephemera" and it launched last month, which I sadly missed.  New subscribers are now picked using a raffle system and I was lucky enough to get in :)  I had no idea what the theme was for this month, but I like Aromaleigh's shadow formula so I knew I wouldn't be disappointed.  They have a very quick TAT and are extremely punctual, so I received this awhile ago.  Look how pretty the packaging is!

Unboxing!
