Kristen of Aromaleigh kindly sent me so pretties of her newest collection to go over for you. The collection is Ciao Italia!
I think this collection is very beautiful. Many shades have that awesome rainbow iridescence. If I didn't just drop a big ol bunch o dough on a necessity I would have found a way to get at least 8 of these. They are very vivid and many of these would make wonderful crease shades and liners.
You may have seen the swatches already but maybe there is something you didn't notice that you liked this time around :)
I swatched them on UDPP.
Swatches on hand match up to bag swatch layout:
The black sparkles in Pistachio (sorry for the yellow light, sunset is in effect!)
1st row:
Liquiriza: dark blueish grey
Pistachio: matte green with black sparkles
Mirtillo: dark greyed purple
Bacio: rosey gold ****
Malaga: dark mauvey pink
Tiramisu: dark brown with brown shimmer ***
2nd row:
Rosamarino: Dark silver iridescent shimmer
Menta: light green, uber magical, rainbowy iridescent shimmer *****
Fior Di Latte: creamy shimmery light pink, pinkish iridescence
Lampone: peachy coral, golden rainbow iridescence, green sparks I think **
Melone: dark blueish green, green iridescence
Nocciola: matte dark curry yellow, very unique shade
Amarena: (on far right) pale pink frost. Frosty version of Terpsichore minus the gold shimmer, more white. Still pretty!

Pera: slight shimmery greenish grey
Albicocca: Matte reddish orange, slight shimmer
Fragola: Cooler toned more pink version of Lampone minus the sparks I saw***

ReplyDeleteOh, these are more lovely than I realized! For some reason, I hadn't noticed the shimmer before, and was like, "Eh, they're nice, but...mattes. Meh." Thanks to your swatches, I am rethinking that. :D
