My favorite Aromaleigh collection is definitely Spring Solstice! This is so "me" :D Descriptions & photos from Aromaleigh's website, swatches are mine.
Suosikkikokoelmani Aromaleighiltä on Spring Solstice. Siis tämähän on kuiten tehty minulle :D Kuvat ja kuvaukset Aromaleighin sivuilta, swatchit toki omani.
Spring solstice pigments swatched dry over Lumene primer (except Rocks! glitter, it was applied heavily over Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy).
1. Zinnia: So unique, this vibrant but soft coral peach turns into a blend of pinkish coral with a dominant violet iridescence.
2. Heartleaf: The freshness of budding leaves with sparkles of violet.
3. Forget-me-not: The lush turquoise of petals, sparkling with magical turquoise sparkles.
4. Viburnum: Remember the coveted Le Mystere #69? The only Mystere that actually had a recipe? Well, this is it. The perfect marriage of cocoa brown and pewter. Softly frosted. Fantastic.
5. May Lily : My new favorite- the palest creamy greenish shimmer with sparkles of pink and violet.
6. Nasturtium: Dramatic neutral red, sparkling with highlights of pink sparks.
7. Phlox: A delicate, shimmering wash of pale silver grey with iridescent blue sparks.
8. Bellflower: A diaphanous violet purple tone, slightly sheer, with highlights of pink sparks.
9. Calendula: Warm mahogany brown with coppery sparkle shimmer.
10. Greenbrier: Lovely cool green with surprising sparks of blue, the color of the sky.
11. Alyssum: Soft frosty champagne pink with shimmer of green and blue.
12. Trillium: Vibrant, but wearable fresh Spring green full of shimmering green sparkles.
13. Ondberry: A rich, softly shimmering eggplant purple with slight sparkles of gold.
14. Lupine: Shimmering mid-tone smokey blue violet.
Some of my favorites are May Lily (in my top 10 list!), Trillium, Ondberry, Forget-me-not... Unfortunately Godetia and Mallow weren't popular enough to make to the permanent colors and I didn't have time to order full size of those :( But I guess Miss K will create too many too nice pigments in the future!
Suosikkejani ovat mm. May Lily (top 10 listallani), Trillium, Ondberry, Forget-me-not... Valitettavasti Godetia ja Mallow eivät olleet tarpeeksi suositut ja päässeet pysyviksi väreiksi :( Mutta Miss K keksii varmasti jotain uutta pian pääni menoksi! Hyvää kuvaa en meikistäni saanut mutta alla sentään yksi otos.
I didn't get good pictures of my makeup, but I'll post this one:
-Detrivore primer
-AL Phlox (lid)
-AL Lupine (outer lid)
-AL Colette (crease, lower lashline)
-MAC Blacktrack fluidline
-LashStiletto wp
I also finally swatched some miscellaneous Aromaleigh pigments:
Brianna/ Eye Lustre: Pearlized khaki with golden toned highlights.
Gilded Jeolousy/ Gothic Lolita Eye Collection: A lusciously intense pearlized khaki green. Rich and multi-dimensional.
Aurelie/ Bete Noire Eyeshadow: Coppered bronze with smokey lowlight and gold and copper sparks.
Jolie/ Bete Noire Eyeshadow: Lush burgundy wine with bright violet shimmer. This is gorgeous!
Azalea/ Opulent Lustre: Heathered soft pink-lilac shadow, but vivid with metallic sheen. Lovely!
Isabella/ Eye Lustre: A multi-dimensional deep heathery shade.
Severina/ Eye Lustre: Gorgeous verdant green with an almost metallic pearl glimmer.
Charcoal/ Pure Eyes Frost Eyeshadow: A deep charcoal gray frost eyeshadow.
Some blushes:
-Epitome Pure Rouge (warm toned)- A luscious coral/peach. Very natural! Hint of subtle shimmer.
-Tawny Pure Rouge: A warm peachy brown shade with a hint of shimmer.
-Plumwine Pure Rouge (neutral/cool toned)- a delightful plummy shade with wine tones and subtle pink shimmer.
Thanks for looking :)
Great colors ! I never tried this brand before but they look awesome and well pigmented :-)

ReplyDeleteAromaleigh is definitely one of my favorite MMU companies :)
I'm sad I wont get to try Mallow :( When I placed my last chance order I kept forgetting to grab samples of the ones I wouldn't get fs of, so I missed out on a bunch of L'orchidees as well.
ReplyDeleteI do love that Tawny blush! I don't have any peachy browns, they kinda scare me, but that one looks very pretty. I just hate trying to get them out of the sample bags
Gorgeous colours and i like your eyes, you blend it so great, really pretty
ReplyDeleteI just got a bunch of samples of these and they truly are beautiful i'm definately going to be getting some full sizes soon :)
ReplyDeleteI'm wearing today :) It's so pretty. Thanks for the swatches, I always love them!
ReplyDeleteOndberry is one of my favorites, too. :) I love your swatches of Azalea and Isabella. I'd never looked at those, but now I'll probably order samples.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree more about Mallow. It was so beautiful and good for my pale skintone. I'll have to make the precious sample I got last for a long time. :)
ReplyDeleteOh, and it looks like it's as cold where you are as where I am. Brrr...
So how do you like the Detrivore primer,Rii? I can't wait for your review of it!
ReplyDeleteI like this look on you.
My faves from this collection are Forget-me-not,Bellflower,and Trillium. I just have to get Trillium. I won Forget-me-not in the butterfly contests,and I got Bellflower off of E-bay. But now that alot of the LE's are becoming permanent, I won't have to spend so much on Ebay.
Gorgeous! Heartleaf, Greenbrier, May Lily and Brianna are on my "next buy" list. :) Have to order them when there's still 25% discount available. :)
ReplyDeleteIhana on tuo punainen Nasturtium, pitäisköhän ihan tilata....
ReplyDeleteYou look beautiful! Colette really makes your eyes pop!
ReplyDeleteSo far I've only tried Zinnia from Spring Solstice and I love it. I really want Epitome...bad XD

I *heart* heartleaf, lol! And really like Nasturtium too.
ReplyDeleteOh, I really liked Jessamine too. Too bad it didn't make it. I am wearing Jessamine and Nasturtium in my icon (although you can't tell, it's too small).
