Innocent + Twisted Alchemy August 2016 Subscription Swatches

Today, I have swatches of Innocent + Twisted Alchemy's August subscription box!  I+TA's current TAT is 14-18 business days, but the subscription doesn't operate on that schedule and instead ships out around the same time every month.  It's $18/month for three to four mini eyeshadows and a full sized guest indie product.

This month features a theme inspired by the legend of Jingwei and includes two mini eyeshadows, one mini highlighter, one mini lip gloss, and one full size eyeshadow from a guest indie.

Jingwei

Jingwei: lavender with pink and gold sparkles

Enamored by Morning Light

Enamored by Morning Light:  mint with beautiful gold duochrome and copper shimmers

Metamorphase

Metamorphase:  pink highlight with blue and pink shimmers

Bare lips

Mocking Sea

Mocking Sea on face

Mocking Sea:  moderately opaque dark purple gloss with blue sparkles; grape scented.  It clings to dry spots so you must exfoliate before applying.

Upon a Dream

Upon a Dream:  dark blurple with pink, blue, and gold shimmers.  This was an exclusive eyeshadow made by Wonderland Beauty Cosmetics.  While it's a nice and blendable shade, it was extremely messy inside the jar.  As you can tell from the pictures, eyeshadow had leaked onto the threads of the jar and into the cap.  Even after I cleaned it up, it continues to leak and create a mess.  I'm afraid I will be giving this away.

Innocent + Twisted Alchemy January 2016 Subscription Swatches

Today I have swatches of Innocent + Twisted Alchemy's January 2016 subscription.  It's inspired by Alice in Wonderland/Through the Looking Glass.  This post was initially scheduled for much later, as I normally have work today, but by some miracle, our boss decided to cancel due to Storm Jonas!  NYC happened to get around three feet of snow, so I'm really really glad we don't have to go out.  This month's subscription included three eyeshadows by I+TA along with some extremely beautiful label art.  We also got a bunch of samples from other companies!
