I finally got a chance to open and swatch my February Glamour Doll Eyes OTM subscription, and the theme this month was "Any Excuse For Chocolate"! I love the lacy bag everything came in this month, so cute!
About - Glamour Doll Eyes is an indie cosmetics company specializing in eyeshadow, blush, lip glazes, gel eyeliner, and will be soon venturing into pressed shadows. Vanessa, the owner, is based in Nevada, and has been doing a monthly subscription for three years.
We received some Hershey Kisses and another little charm this month, which says "Chocolates".
Shipping - The OTM always ships between the 10th and the 14th, and this month mine shipped on the 10th, and arrived 2 days later via USPS from Nevada to California.
Product Size - The main eyeshadows and products every month will be full size, but sometimes there will be bonus samples included.
Free Samples - There are usually free bonus samples included with this subscription, but it's not guaranteed every month.
All eyeshadow swatches are done over Too Faced Shadow Insurance primer.

The cute info card this month!
TMI (Try More Indie): Savor - 20% off, the code is private this month, so unfortunately I cannot share it. But I have tried Savor before, and I can attest to the quality of their products! If you haven't heard of them, check them out, and if you make a purchase be sure to add in the notes that you heard about them from the Glamour Doll Eyes OTM!
Glamour Doll Eyes Not To Be Truffled With - "Silky semi matte chocolate base with a layer of crimson sheen and raspberry sparkle."
This shade is so pretty, I think it will look great as a sexy smoky eye, or used in the outer v or crease.
Coastal Scents Liquid Eyeliner in Cobalt -
I'm not going to swatch this because I already have several navy blue liners, so I'm going to try to trade this with a friend for a different color.
Gothic Gala Lacquers in Saucy 'Lil Sugar Tart - "Deep berry red with a sparkle of gold, holo glitter."
I just did a quick three coat swatch for the photo. You can see the gold and holo glitter pretty well. This polish dried really fast though, so you've got to be quick if you don't want to make a mess of your nails. You can see I wasn't quite fast enough, and the polish started to dry in the middle of painting it.
Glamour Doll Eyes Pornstache - "A dark brown base with a blue to silver sheen and a subtle red and copper shimmer."
This extra bonus sample is from the recently released Anti Valentine's collection, which I bought quite a bit of. I already bought this shadow, but it's nice to see it swatched because I love the shade! It's a beautiful silvery gun metal color with a blueish sheen.
Overall, this month's OTM had a total value of $14.20, which isn't bad, but it was a little low. I like that we got some bonuses that were a little different from the normal eyeshadow extras, the nail polish and the eyeliner. But I think my favorite item is Not To Be Truffled With. I hope I can trade the eyeliner with a friend for a different color, because otherwise I'll probably just give it away. And I like the nail polish, I'll have to check out Gothic Gala Lacquers.
Customer Service - I did not have to contact customer service regarding any problems with my subscription this month.
Availability - This month's OTM is no longer available, but look out for next month. Because of demand and problems with the website crashing, next month's subscriptions will be lottery based, and you can enter here.
Overall Satisfaction - My favorite product was Not To Be Truffled With, and I can't wait for next month!
