More hell: Cosmetics with a demonic beginning
AUTHOR BLOG Fierce & Cute Moore Soboleva once a week makes for us a thematic selection of products from his extensive collection of cosmetics. In the new issue - otherworldly decorative cosmetics and fragrances.
Flavors Demeter Zombie For Her / For Him
Demeter is not alien to any devilry that is dear to my heart - one of the most famous fragrances is called Funeral Home, I have been looking at it for a long time, and I recently got it. But for this important selection I choose a zombie couple, she is very nice. Smells are complex, which is especially valuable given the fact that the brand is famous for mono-aromatics: the male version smells like earth and moss, and the female version smells like earth and raspberry, a raw raspberry bush in the forest. You can combine it with other Demeter smells, but I really like to wear them on my own.
Blush Essence Vampire's Love
An inexpensive German brand made the Vampire's Love collection a few years ago in the wake of universal vampire hysteria - and rightly, I think, did. I managed to buy several varnishes out of it and these gel blush, which I still consider to be one of the most successful samples of a similar texture. This is a cherry translucent gel, which is perfectly shaded in a natural pink blush, does not lubricate the tonal tool and behaves remarkably on the skin. It is a pity that the blush was limited - it was a star product, worthy of a much higher price.
Fragrance By Kilian Playing with the Devil
Playing with the Devil is more classical and less infernal than you expect - it’s more about the forbidden fruit than about demons. It is a pity, but it doesn’t cancel the fact that Playing with the Devil is good - an elegant fruit aroma with pepper and light animalistic notes (I don’t feel anything about the tree in the pyramid). I like the pronounced smell of currant leaves and the languid warm sweetness that remains on the skin when the perfume evaporates slightly. Well, the name, of course, makes me happy as much as the fragrance itself - with regard to cosmetics, such superficiality, I believe, is not a vice.
Eyeko Vampira Polish nail polish
One of my favorite varnishes of the British brand Eyeko, which I liked before its radical rebranding, which I have repeatedly mentioned with sadness and sadness. I am ready to buy any product at all, on which variations of the word "vampire" will be written, but here not only the name and label of the bottle was succeeded, but also the shade itself - black with red sparkles. True, these sparkles strive to hide and are clearly visible only in directional light, but this does not prevent me from distinguishing lacquer from the ranks of its black and red colleagues - Vampira!
Aroma nu_be Sulfur
Niche Italian brand nu_be loves all space even more than we are with the expensive editorial Wonderzine. nu_be - "olfactory periodic table" of the seven currently flavors, named after the primary elements. I tried the amazing "Lithium" (Lithium), and here the "Sulfur" goes well, also beautiful. The authors describe it as "the scent of passion and darkness," and, I must say, it turned out - it is almost the pornographic smell of hot skin and human desires. I would not advise wearing it, walking on a dark evening alone, in other cases - I recommend it hot, it is a beautiful, strange and wildly attractive smell.
MAC Lipstick Dark Side
Lipsticks MAS are among my favorites, over the years of interest in the brand I have accumulated a fair amount of them. Maroon-plum Dark Side - not the darkest of those that have the MAS, and one of the most correct dark lipstick from the brand. Despite the saturation, it is a muffled, calm color that is easy to combine even with brightly painted eyes without fear of looking like the Joker from the Dark Knight. My only claim to the Dark Side is the fact that a brown tint that I dislike for me sometimes appears to me in a strange way: the color is very variable.
Terry de Gunzburg Rose Infernale Aroma
There should have been another bank at this place, but Rose Infernale got a chance acquaintance and, as it happens, passion at first sight. I am calm about works by Terry de Ginzburg (the founder of the cosmetic brand by Terry and the perfumery one - the name of myself), but here the main notes are rose and incense, and this is what I love most about perfumery. I think that was the way the classic gothic divas smelled like Vampires and Mortisha Addams. The fragrance will go on sale only at the end of August - I hope everyone who is interested in the dark side recorded this date in their black moleskines.
Chanel Demoniac Eye Pencil
A black pencil with a noticeable red undertone from the black-colored collection of Chanel Noirs Obscurs, released in 2009 (then I, grunting with excitement, managed to collect almost all of it). The formula of these pencils seems to me very successful - before the historic meeting with the Urban Decay pencils, I most of all loved these very Chanel with sponges at the ends. Demoniac is not very pigmented, but it's not scary - it looks most beautiful in feathering, which is still easy and convenient to do with it.
Hand Cream TokyoMilk Dark La Vie La Mort
From the lovely TokyoMilk Dark line, where creams for hands are paired with fragrances, I have two items chosen, in fact, for their infernal articles: La Vie La Mort hand cream and Arsenic fragrance. Between these two smells, being greedy, I could not choose - they are different and both are cool. Wormwood bitter-sweet Arsenic was very popular not only for me, but also for my mother, and the languid tuberose La Vie La Mort smells more traditional, but it does not spoil it. By the way, the brand suggests using these nutritious creams based on shea butter as well as a butter for the body, but I do not allow such waste: it is too good.
Aroma L'Artisan Parfumeur Passage d'Enfer
I love and respect this brand - one of its fragrances was my signature scent for several years, even before my collection grew to obscene proportions. Passage d'Enfer I wanted even before I tried it, - coincided love for the works of the great perfumer Olivia Giacobetti, tenderness for the brand and charm with a catchy name. Fortunately, the aroma was worthy of its name - it is unusual, at the same time warm and cold, with pronounced notes of incense, lilies and wood. In short, I assume that in hell I will be welcome.
