Picture 1 full collection; 2,4&5 in natural light by a window, 3 in a darker place in my room

I ordered these samples from Geekton Abbey not too long ago. My samples came in individual baggies with their names on each bag, all in a larger Zip-Lock bag, which was then wrapped in some lovely red tissue paper with a sticker with Geekton Abbey on it. I also got a note from the maker of the shadows, which included a coupon for future purchases (awww, yis!) The turnaround time was pretty quick, and I absolutely love the shadows! They are really nicely colored and have a really nice, smooth formula.

The swatches were done over ELF Eyelid Primer and bare skin. The primer REALLY does nice things for these shadows!

Crow! is a color between orange and copper with a metallic sheen. It’s lovely! I usually don’t care much for orangey colors but I might actually use this one during the summer evenings.

Tom Servo! is also a bit metallic. It’s a red that shines in the light, almost like a darker colored fire truck. It’s not as bright as I thought it would be– which is good, because if it was any brighter I’d be scared to use it! The primer really brings out the shine that this color has.

Gypsy! is a grape-candy purple. Again, the primer REALLY helps it stick tight, because without it some of the bright pigmentation is lost, bummer. This one isn’t as shiny/metallic as the others, but I wouldn’t TOTALLY call it matte, either. Perfect for summer with how bright and smooth it is.

Satellite of Love! is actually my favorite of the Mystery Science Theater 3K set (go figure it’s the silver, right?). I have a TON of silver and grey shadows, so I figured this one wouldn’t be super special to me. WRONG. It’s a bright metallic silver/grey with amazing texture. It’s SO smooth and the glitter really sparkles, especially over the primer. I love love LOVE this shade, and will most likely be buying the full-size of this one. Seriously in love with Satellite of Love!

And now for the free samples…

These are from the Breaking Bad collection (which I didn’t see YET on her Etsy page, but stay tuned!)

Yeah Science! is a bright, blue-raspberry-candy color. It’s almost like the color of the Skype logo in person! Super bright, no glitter or shimmer. I’m going to use this as an eyeliner most likely because of how bright it pops. When this color comes out, I might pick up some more in a full size. Can’t wait for it to be released!

Lastly, we have The One Who Knocks. I was super looking forward to this one, but I’m not sure I love it. Not that the formula is bad (super smooth, like the rest!) or that the pigment falls short (it doesn’t), but I was just expecting more from it. The primer really brings the color out, but because it’s kinda pale in comparison to the bright colors of the other shades I didn’t love it as much. On its own I might have appreciated it more. Still a great color, though.

My pictures are pretty close (on my screen, anyway) to the colors that show up on my skin in person. I love the formulas and the colors are fab. And the samples really made my day!

Geekton Abbey, keep it up. I’ll be back for more! 9/10, totally awesome!
