So I thought I would just jump right back into my old routine, so I have a review for you guys! A Couple of weeks back I was contacted by Drama Queen Cosmetics to review a few of their eyeshadows of my choice
and their Eyeshadow primer :P

would just not be as exciting. Dedicated to the screen goddess in each of us,

Diamond Dust - Shimmery White

Baby Doll - Soft Powder Blue

Sapphire - Shimmery Sapphire Blue

Twilight - Black with blue shimmer
Vivid Effect Shadow Primer
No Primer - L-R - Diamond Dust, Baby Doll, Sapphire, Twilight
Primer - L-R - Diamond Dust, Baby Doll, Sapphire, Twilight
The Packaging is my absolute favorite! It is sleek and black, the twist top is perfect and you can see the color of the shadow through the lid with the logo on top, very classy ;D
The Primer is very smooth, it feels air whipped to the touch. It defiantly makes the shadow brighter and more pigmented and it significantly makes color last longer. But it is difficult to spread it over the entire lid. "A little goes a long way" does not apply to this primer. I still prefer my Lime Crime primer :p
Diamond Dust is pearly and gorgeous, but the texture of it is very similar to that of cheap drugstore eyeshadows, think Rimmel London.
Baby Doll is a soft pastel blue has the same texture as Diamond Dust
Sapphire is the shade I was most excited for! It is a gorgeous sapphire blue, it is the color of my birthstone as well! The Texture is much softer than the other two colors but the more you blend it the more it turns grey and loses its pigmentation, very disappointing.
Twilight is the most disappointing of the bunch. It is the least pigmented and the most patchy. It fails across the board as a black shadow, it swatches "okay" with the primer but its pathetic without it.
So overall I am pretty disappointed with the brand, there are much better eyeshadows on the market for a better price. They swatch great but the wear completely different :/

This is the second "blah" swatch & review I've sen for drama queen cosmetics today. I don't think I'll be investing in these. Thanks for the save girl. The look still looks cute though :)
The swatches of these look great and bright, but the look is .... not so bright.
Packaging and promo images are nice but the product looks a little bland :\
I like the packaging of the products but if that's the only thing I think I'll pass:)
Sad to hear about Sapphire, as it looked gorgeous in the swatch w/ primer. I'll pass on this company.
Yeaaah...I was surprised to see the way they looked on your eye after the swatches.: / Disappointed with you.
As I explained in my review, the shadows swatched differently than they applied. Be disappointed with the product, not me.
That is what I would suggest.
Completely agree.
Oh lack-of-punctuation-related misunderstandings. Of course i'm not disappointed with you! I meant I'm disappointed (in the product) right along with you.
Oh that is a relief!! Thank you for clearing that up! :)
I am sorry to hear that you didn’t like the free samples. This line is meant to be for everyday wear for a more natural look. We had a lot of MUAs that loves the quality of the shadows especially for TV and bridal. We are looking to launch a line of theatrical colors, perhaps the new colors will be more suitable to your liking.
