Hey there geekonistas!
Welcome to day four of Blogmas and part two of my review of
AFK Cosmetics' Round Table collection! You can find part one - blush, highlighter, and lip glosses
here. Today we're checking out the six loose shadows that come with the collection. So let's make like an unladen swallow and dive on in!
 |
An African or European swallow? |
|
|
The first shadow is called "Bring Out Your Dead" and it's a greyish taupe with a silver shimmer.
 |
I'm not dead yet! |
 |
I feeeel happpyyyy! |
|
The next color is "Ni!" and its a forest green with green sparkles and shimmer. Very pretty!
 |
Bring me a shrubbery! |
 |
You must cut down the mightiest tree in the forest... with.. a.. herring! |
Next we have "...Tim?". This is a reddish brown with some intense gold shimmer and pink sparkle! The pink sparkle doesn't show up that well on camera, but it's definitely there.
 |
Who are you who can summon fire without flint or tinder? |
 |
There are some who call me... Tim. |
 |
Blurred for sparkle. No quote here. |
"That Rabbit's Dynamite!" is a cream colored base with a pink shift.
 |
It's just a harmless little BUNNY, isn't it?! |
 |
Death awaits you all with nasty, big, pointy teeth! |
Next up we have "The Black Beast of Arrghhh!". This is a blackened teal with a teal shimmer. This would look great foiled as a liner!
 |
Look, if he was dying, he wouldn't have bothered to carve "Aaaaauuuuuggghhhh" he'd just say it. |
 |
When suddenly, the animator suffered a fatal heart attack! The cartoon peril was no more. |
And finally, we have the last color in the collection. "Airspeed Velocity of an Unladen Swallow"! This is a medium brown with a matte/satin finish.
 |
It could be carried by an African swallow. |
 |
But then the African swallow's not migratory. |
Final thoughts: Aside from the fun I had coming up with all the Monty Python quotes, I really enjoyed this collection! This is such a rich movie to mine for colors and characters, I would love to see a part two for more great products. I found the quality to be very high for all the shadows, with great pigmentation and ease of application. I'm not sure how their limited edition stuff works - if, for example there is a chance for this collection to come back in the future, but if it does I highly recommend it!
