Persephone Minerals - Christmas LE Swatches!


I received a nice envelope full of sparkly goodness from Persephone Minerals.  I have swatched some of the Holiday Collection shadows. You can find the entire collection here. First two pictures are swatched over Wet n Wild Idol Eyes Pixie130 (pale champagne).

Gingerbread House- A golden-gingery shade loaded with gumdrop sparkles of gold, blue & pink.  (This really looks like gingerbread.  An uncommon color. This has a medium amount of glitter.)
Corrupt Cupid- A festive burst of red, green, gold, silver & white sparkle. Perfect on it's own or layered over other shades. (Almost has a wintery white feel to it.  Very sparkly.)
Dirty Dancer- A deep shimmering sage green with green & silver-grey sparkle. (This is what a blue spruce Christmas tree looks like.  Very sparkly.)


Buttermint- A pale, glowing yellow highlight glistening with sparkles of bright yellow & duotone sparkles or red-yellow. (This has a nice shift, but I wouldn't describe it as glistening.  It's not matte, nor frost - a bit inbetween.)
Bad Blitzen- A lovely yellow-green with a yellow-gold shift & gold, silver & green shimmer.


These are all swatched over Fyrinnae's Pixie Epoxy.  


As you can see, they all really show their character once epoxy has entered the scene.  I highly recommend PE (or a similar glitter glue) for all of these shadows, it really showcases the beauty.

Do you own any Persephone shadows?  What do you like the best?
