Press Samples
I admit it. I've never read Dante's Inferno. I like to think of myself as relatively well-read so this is pretty embarrassing to admit. The Divine Comedy has always been on my to-read list but passively in a "I'll get around to it eventually" kind of way. This collection by Aromaleigh Mineral Cosmetics has me re-evaluating its position.
It's clear how much love the creator has for the Inferno. Ignoring the fact that this is a wonderful collection (we'll get back to that in a minute), each product page has a descriptive blurb on the origin of the name and potentially the inspiration that Dante drew from. I feel like I've almost gotten a primer on the Inferno just from reading through the product descriptions.
But as for the collection itself, it is a set of 13 eyeshadows, each named after one of the 13 demons (or Malebranche) of the Divine Comedy. Each has been made with "multichromatic pigments" and as such, this is a set of strong duochrome shades.
I had a really hard time capturing the color shifts of this collection. (Well done, Aromaleigh!) This is a really beautiful set and one that you definitely have to see for yourself.
One thing to note: Some of the eyeshadows leave a bit of a stain, particularly the red ones, but they come off with some hard scrubbing.
I'll let AG tell you a little more about the individual shades. After you AG!
