Cream Shadows:
Black Is The New Black - "Rich dark pure black cream shadow."
I swatched this by itself, and then with Lesian Request Denied over the top so you can see how versatile a black cream shadow is! It really gives some depth to any eyeshadow you pair it with. But the cream shadow by itself is super pigmented and completely opaque black. I was really impressed, I was worried it would be hard to get opaque and not streaky, but it didn't take much effort. I will mention this did have a bit of sweating happening before I even used it, but it's an easy fix with a tissue. It's most likely because of the glycerin in the shadow, but it's not really a problem. Just wipe off and use like normal.

The Accountant - "A shimmery medium brown with a very subtle pink, gold and turquoise shimmer."
This is a lovely neutral cream shadow, which I think would look great by itself, or paired with another shadow over the top. I love the gold shimmer it has, I'll probably be wearing this by itself for a one shadow look often.

Eyeshadows:
Expecting Trouble - "A dark brown base with a dirty lavender overlay, blue to purple duochrome shift and lots of blue & purple sparkles."
This shadow was the February gift with purchase shadow of the month, which normally I wouldn't swatch, but this one is an extension of this collection! And it's still available for purchase even though it's March and there is a new gift with purchase shadow. I was surprised by how much sparkle was in this, and a bit of duochrome. It's like a soft muted lavender with tons of rainbow sparkles almost.
Lesbian Request Denied - "A dark gray base with a pink sheen, shimmer and shine."
It surprises me that this is a dark gray base because it looks like purple-ish to me. I love the sheen in this, and in the jar it almost looked like a purple with gold shimmer.

Pornstache - "A dark brown base with a blue to silver sheen and a subtle red and copper shimmer."
If you couldn't tell, I pretty much bought all the purple looking shadows, but it was only because the others looked like shadows I already owned. This one is more of a gunmetal gray looking shadow with the blueish silver sheen.
Face:
Dandelion - "A pale creamy yellow with a golden pink sheen."
This was one of the products I received a small sample of from a friend. I didn't want to spend more on the release of this to get the full sizes of this and the blush, but I might have to go back and buy them when they come back in stock! This is a beautiful yellow to golden highlighter, and I really like it!
Red Mafia - "A semi metallic red with red sheen and tons of red sparkles."
This blush looks more like a burgundy to me, with lots of sparkle in it. They look more pink to me, but this blush is pretty pigmented. Best to use it with a light hand. Or as an eyeshadow because it's eye safe as well! This was another that I received a sample from a friend, so I might be buying the full size.

Liners:
Butch - "An army green with a slight brown undertone and lots of green, gold and copper sparkles."
I love the liners from Glamour Doll Eyes, they are so creamy and easy to use. I think they could even easily be used as a cream shadow as well. This shadow has tons of gold sparkle, but I had a bit of trouble getting it to be opaque.

Prison Wife - "A slightly blackened metallic gold with red sheen and sparkle."
Oh wow this was so metallic! And it went on so smoothly, it's like a bronzy shade with gold sparkle. And same with this one, it would be such a fun cream shadow.

Overall, I'm pretty happy with the products out of this collection that I did decide to purchase. I might have to go back for full sizes of Dandelion and Red Mafia, but I really liked everything! If you haven't tried Glamour Doll Eyes cream shadows or the liners yet, I would highly recommend them. I don't think I can pick a favorite! I especially love The Accountant, Expecting Trouble, Red Mafia, and Prison Wife.
Customer Service - I did not have to contact customer service regarding any problems with my order.
