Indie Makeup Review: Life’s Entropy

A few weeks ago I ordered makeup samples from Life Entropy (an indie makeup store) and I’m going to review those samples here! All of their makeup is cruelty free and vegan. This is my first indie makeup review and I’m excited to show you what I got.

Ordered: September 1st

Arrived: September 15th

The envelope arrived with no problems and when I opened it up it was very nicely packaged!

She even addressed a hand written thank you note to me, which I thought was a great touch.

Not to mention she thew in a free eye shadow sample in the color Enchant, another great touch.

Now for the fun part: the samples!

This picture is taken in natural light with no primer underneath.

The top: Dream Coil. A light slightly shimmery blue/gray shade. This swatch is after about two swipes with an eye shadow brush. Online it seemed a bit whiter than it looks on my skin; I picked this shade out on the website in the hopes that I could use it as a shimmery highlighter color for under my brows or on top of my cheek bones. Unfortunately, the color is definitely too dark for that. However, I’m pleasantly surprised by the shade anyway. It’s something I would have never picked out for myself but I’m excited to wear it.

The bottom: Enchant. This color is vibrant, it’s highly pigmented and goes on really well. It’s a really nice matte forest green shade. Unfortunately, despite the fact that I have green eyes I almost never wear green eye shadow. Maybe I’ll try using it underneath my eyeliner or on my lower lid, but I have a feeling this will need to find a new home with one of my friends instead.



Next: The lipstick samples.

First is their liquid lipstick in the color Fusion.

If you had asked me before this if there could be a lipstick too hot pink for me to wear I probably would have said no. However, we’ve got a winner with this one, kids, because this lipstick is suuuper bright.The pictures don’t capture it fully because in reality the color is absolutely cartoonish on my lips. And while it went on really smoothly and felt nice on my lips (definitely not dry at all) the color was just not for me. Gotta say, less is certainly more with this lipstick.

Last, but not least, is their liquid lipstick in the shade Big Bang Theory:

This color I love! It’s perfect for fall and makes me feel dark and witchy. Be careful when you put these lipsticks on however, because I got this color ALL over my teeth when I first put it on. Still they went on really smooth and felt very slick on my lips.

Of all the samples I got this is the one I’m most likely to purchase the full sized product of.

Overall I had a very pleasant experience purchasing from Life’s Entropy and I'd recommend checking it out!
