Review: Glamour Doll Eyes Matte Squared Masculine Collection!

Hey Everyone!

I have a very exciting post for you today! This post will be showing you the upcoming Matte Squared Maculine Collection that Glamour Doll Eyes will be releasing tomorrow, June 21st, 2013! The Masculine Collection consists of 10 matte shadows that contain a colored shimmer/sheen to them. If you were able to get the Halo Collection, these shadows are similar to Unveil. This collection will only be available for 6 months and after that there will be a Feminine Collection released. What Glamour Doll Eyes plans to do with these two collections is to have them both released for 6 months and GDE consumers will have the opportunity to vote for their favorites from each of the collections! The top 5 from each collection (10 shadows in total) will be added into the permanent line!

Now to get into the swatches!

• All photos taken in artificial light with flash.
• All shadows were swatched over Two Faced Shadow Insurance.
• I will be giving my description of the shadows.

Left to Right (start at top): Arrogant, Irrational, Fearless, Thoughtless, Courageous, Inconsiderate, Presumptuous, Reckless, Facade, & Chivarious

This next set will show you the sheen that these shadows have to them!

Irrational: A green shadow with a golden-green sheen/shimmer throughout.

Fearless: A deep blue shadow with a purple sheen/shimmer throughout.

Thoughtless: A lighter blue shadow with a pink-purple sheen/shimmer throughout.

Left to Right: Inconsiderate, Presumptuous, Reckless, Facade, & Chivarious

Inconsiderate: A perfect skintone matte shadow with a very slight pink toned sheen/shimmer throughout.

Presumptuous: A yellow shadow with a pink-purple sheen/shimmer throughout.

Reckless: An orange shadow with a pink sheen/shimmer throughout.

Facade: A gorgeous berry pink shadow with a lighter pink sheen/shimmer throughout.

Chivarious: A brick red shadow with a golden sheen/shimmer throughout.

I absolutely love the idea of these shadows and especially love matte finish! The blue shadows were the toughest to work with and definitely need a primer, but honestly they still blend quite easily. I didn't have much trouble at all blending these shadows.

My favorites out of the Masculine Collection are Arrogant, Courageous, Inconsiderate, and Facade!

Which shadows are your favorite? Do you plan to pick up the Masculine Collection?
