Best of Indie - Readers' Choice Awards Winners: Part One (Cosmetics)

I'm so proud to announce the final results of the Best of Indie - Readers' Choice Awards Series. I'm splitting the results into two parts, Part One (this post) where I'll cover the Cosmetics categories and Part Two (the next post) where I'll cover the Bath & Body and Fragrances categories. Here is Part Two! For each brand that won, I wrote up a little blurb about them including where they ship from and if they ship internationally. If they won multiple categories, I listed the blurb once so as not to be repetitive.

Also, I wanted to thank Joana for designing the badges with me! She was very patient in spite of all the changes I wanted to make. She was great to work with so feel free to check her portfolio out if you'd like to commission work from her.

Sugarpill Cosmetics New Release: Nine New Chromalusts & a Limited Edition Chromalust!

Affiliate Links

When Sugarpill comes out with a new release, they really go all out! I'm glad that they've been coming out with so much recently, it's been rough waiting in between releases. This new release includes nine new Chromalusts, some of which are colors to replace some recently discontinued colors, and a limited edition Chromalust. The new colors are releasing at 2pm today!

Just a note, the Chromalusts have gone up from $12.00 to $13.00 or $14. All of them except Goldilux and Grand Tiara are $13.00 and Goldilux and Grand Tiara is $14.00 (not sure why).

The new colors are: Charmy, Clickbait, Countess, Grand Tiara, Holy Ghost, Hug Life, Mint Soda, Penelope, and Strangeling. The limited edition color is Pastelle.

Grand Tiara appears to be a replacement for Tiara and Strangling appears to be a replacement to Hysteric. Holy Ghost does appear close to Starling and Clickbait seems like a lighter version of Junebug. The rest of the colors seem like new shades to the line!

Here are some swatches of the new nine Chromalusts!

Do you have any plans to get some of the new colors or the limited edition colors?

Makeup Geek Showtime Foiled Eyeshadow - Swatch and Review

I Purchased This Affiliate Link

Undoubtedly, the Makeup Geek Foiled Eyeshadows have been so long-awaited by the beauty community. Marlena shared swatches ages ago and damn near everyone was enticed by the incredible pigmentation of the eyeshadows. I got the shade Showtime as a Christmas present.

Where to Purchase: Makeup Geek

Price: $9.99 for 1.8 grams/.064 oz of product

Do they test on animals?: The company does not test on animals.

Packaging: The eyeshadows come in 26mm pan in a paper sleeve. The paper sleeve has accents of rose gold and black and the eyeshadows can be stored in any magnetic palette. Currently it's not available in a compact and since a few people have mentioned issues with them cracking during shipping, they might need a sturdier container.
