Geek Chic Cosmetics Scapers FOTD

I haven't done a make-up look in AGES & really haven't worn much make-up at all in the past year.  Actually, the past few weekends, I've worn more than I did all last year.  So when GCC asked for people to review the Scapers collection, I jumped at it.  I've been oogling their stuff for a while and knew this would help.



Of course as I'm typing this up, I realize I totally failed and forgot to take a picture of the actual shadows in the container.....but you can see wonderful pictures on their store.  I was sent clamshell samples of Sensitive Warrior, Yotz!, and Find My Way Home. 

Left to Right:
  • Sensitive Warrior - "A light gold with bronze undertones and green sparkles".  I also noticed a little bit of gold glitter.
  • Yotz! - "A raspberry on a red base with a red-violet shift and tons of purple holo glitter and purple and red sparks."  I didn't notice the purple glitter until AFTER I'd already put it on my eyes, so rather than pat it on I kinda ended up blending it off the lid....but it's still a beautiful shade.
  • Find My Way Home - "A rich fall orange velvet metallic shadow with orange and golden sparkle".  I layered this over a brown-ish color which made this look more bronze than orange.  
For the swatches, I applied them over a Wet N Wild Primer using my finger to sorta pat them on.  I wish I had applied them to my eye that way to get more of the sparkle, but they still worked beautifully on my ballz.

You've probably seen a few goofy pics with this random face on Instagram.

These shadows retail for $5.99 for a full size or $1.25 for a sample.  They're Vegan, Cruelty Free, and Gluten Free.

I'm really liking these and reeeeeallllly want Anarchist Priest, Frell!, and Guiding Star.
