This is another online etailer like Coastal Scents. These are more like pigment ingredients than pigments themselves, but I plan to mix these up to make my own pressed shadows. For $1.5 a tablespoon, they're worth a go!

I started off with a few sampler sets:

Cosmetic Pigment Sampler (mattes)
w/flash

Titanium Dioxide White, Ultramarine Pink, Black Oxide, Ultramarine Blue, Ultramarine Violet, Manganese Violet, Red Oxide - blue shade
Red Oxide, Brown Oxide, Orange Oxide, Yellow Oxide, Chromium Green Oxide, Hydrated Chromium Oxide Green

w/o flash


swatches w/ flash


w/o flash:


Overall a bit on the chalky side, but I think I'll be able to use them with micas.

Pop! Sampler (soap safe) micas
w/o flash:

Raspberry Pop, Grape Pop, Blueberry Pop
Apple Green Pop, Lemon drop Pop, Tangerine Pop

swatches:
w/ flash:


w/o flash:


And a blurry pic just to show that these are fairly shimmery:


The next few sampler are all duochrome/iridescent micas, which don't show very well but I tried!

Interference Sampler Micas
basics:

Hilite Red, Hilite Orange, Hilite Copper, Hilite Gold
Hilite Blue, Hilite Violet, Hilite Green

extras:

Satin Orange Gold, Sparkle Violet, Starlight Gold
Starlight Blue, Sparkle Turquoise, Starlight Green

Swatches:

Phew, last batch!

Planetary Sampler micas
There were supposed to be 7 shades but they gave me 2 of one color by mistake:

Travel to Mercury, Travel to Mars, Travel to Pluto
Travel to Venus, Travel to Jupite, Travel to Earth
(missing Travel to Neptune)

Swatches:


Hope you all enjoyed my swatches!
