I'm Completely in Love - Sugarpill Cosmetics review.

So, shortly after my last entry, the postman arrived with a very small white box for me... I couldn't believe my luck, it seems like iv been waiting a decade for this package when in reality its only been a week.

I opened the box to find the prettiest pink crepe paper wrapped around the package's treasures... It was my order from Sugarpill Cosmetics (http://www.sugarpillshop.com/).

So now im going to review this fantastic company. ( i did not receive any of the products for free, i don't have those kind of connections yet haha ).

I ordered the two eyeshadows ( Love + and Poison Plum ) on Tuesday the 5th of July around mid-day... It cost $32, shipping included which worked out at about €23 for me. That was the first awesome thing... To get two top notch eyeshadows delivered from the states for only €23 is astonishing.
I received an email the next day saying the order had been dispatched. It states on the website that you can expect and international delivery to take between 2 and 6 weeks. But my order arrived in just one week.

I open the package and the first thing i see is the invoice, which in itself was an awesome thing. The owner of the company had signed it, saying thanks. I think this is a kick ass personal touch and i really appreciated it.

Then i got down to the brilliant task of opening and trying the eyeshadows out. They are fantastically pigmented and extremely hard wearing. The red colour of Love + is just amazing. But in addition to the two eyeshadows i ordered i also received a sample size of one of their Loose Shadows in the colour Goldilux which is a lovely shimmery gold colour...Iv only ever seen a loose pigment as bright and shinning as this before and it was an edible glitter that i bought for posh cupcakes. I used to think how amazing that stuff would be if you could use it as an eyeshadow and Sugarpill have done that with this loose eyeshadow. Another personal touch that was greatly appreciated.

And on top of these eyeshadows, i also received a Sugarpill sticker which has found pride of place on my laptop.. Its added a touch of sparkle to an otherwise depressing piece of garbage...haha!

I can safely say that Sugarpill has a customer for life and my next order will be a lot larger ( im going to buy all their pressed eyeshadows and a few of the loose ).
Its a fanastic company and i think every makeup lover should own one of their shadows.

Until next time
