Back by customer request and available while supplies last for May's Vintage Aromaleigh offering. Available in the "demi sample" size only, due to the high comparative cost of multichromatic pigments (more info below).

 

GLORIOSA, from FATALIS Volume II released 8/1/2017.

This color-traveling shade has a warm pinked coral base with strong color travel from gold/copper to red to violet, depending on lighting conditions. 

Shown in a variety of lighting conditions around my home, office and outdoors in sunlight (color travel doesn't appear in sunlight). Swatched over NYX cream eye base in skin tone. A base is required to reveal the reflective color traveling effects. Applied without a base, it will appear more a multi-color shimmer.

From Wikipedia: Gloriosa superba, Common names include flame lily, climbing lily, gloriosa lily, and fire lily. The plant is poisonous, toxic enough to cause human and animal fatalities if ingested. Every part of the plant is poisonous, especially the tuberous rhizomes. As with other members of the Colchicaceae, this plant contains high levels of colchicine, a toxic alkaloid. It also contains the alkaloid gloriocine. Within a few hours of the ingestion of a toxic amount of plant material, a victim may experience nausea, vomiting, numbness, and tingling around the mouth, burning in the throat, abdominal pain, and bloody diarrhea. As the toxic syndrome progresses, rhabdomyolysis, ileus, respiratory depression, hypotension, coagulopathy, haematuria, altered mental status, seizures, coma, and ascending polyneuropathy may occur.

.
Sizes available- Due to the extreme high cost of the specialty pigments used, I have adjusted sizing to be half the amount for the same price. For example- a regular Aromaleigh sample is 1/8 tsp in a baggie for $1.25. In Fatalis, you get 1/16th tsp in a baggie for the same price of $1.25)
  1. Demi Sample: 1/8 teaspoon in 3 gram jar. No sifter. Bottom label only.
    This formula features added ingredients for adhesion and wear, which also intensify the color shifts and make it easier to wear and blend over both bare skin and a variety of primers. Your eyeshadow will not arrive in "little balls" like some semi-loose formulas do, but it may be more difficult to get through the sifter holes. Sifters are easily removed. As always, I recommend a regular cream base such as NYX cream eyeshadow base. Your mileage may vary with sticky glue type primers.
    .

    Contains: synthetic flurophlogopite, mica, iron oxide, talc, tin oxide, magnesium myristate, isododecane, capric/caprylic triglyceride  May contain: ferric ferrocyanide 
    .

    This premium eyeshadow collection features truly unique, color traveling pigments that react to various types of light and viewing angles to show their effects. In direct sunlight or diffused light, you don't see color travel. They seem to flash their brightest in low light, and mixed light. All swatches were photographed in my kitchen, in mixed lighting. No specialty professional lighting was used.

    As the pigments used in this collection are extremely costly and used as the highest percentage in the formulas (they are six times the cost of the typical duochrome/interference pigment), I have adjusted prices/sizing accordingly. Basically, you will find that these are twice the cost of other Aromaleigh eyeshadows. Example: a regular Aromaleigh sample is 1/8 tsp in a baggie for $1.25. In Fatalis, you get 1/16th tsp in a baggie for the same price of $1.25)

    Recommended application for these is over a cream eyeshadow base (NYX cream eyeshadow base is my go-to!). Sticky or glue bases may work well for you, but I personally don't use these or test/swatch my products with them. With all color shifting/duochrome shades, I urge you to use a flat taklon brush or other suitable tool to flatten and align the color shifting component of the eyeshadow. This will create a more uniform and reflective surface.

    Wow! I'd read in the fb group how much people love the Ultra Resolution finishing powder, so I grabbed it with my recent order on a whim. I got the English Rose. Literally just got it from the mailbox and applied over my usual Dewdrop. I'm amazed and keep going to look in the mirror. It instantly gave me a soft airbrushed look. Definitely a keeper. Just WOW!

    Fantastic products and service from Aromaleigh for two decades! I absolutely love that the eye products are all clearly labeled with ingredients- a real boon for those with sensitive skin and eyes! The face products are amazing quality and very affordable, and blendable to achieve a perfect match. I adore this company!

    I was always told that aging skin needed liquid or some form of cream foundation. After these forms failed me over and over, I decided to go back to mineral foundation that I used years ago. I found Aromaleigh and purchased sample baggies/jars of foundation, cheek and eye colors and was thrilled how well my skin responded. I have oily, acne prone, and aging skin, and this mineral foundation looks amazing on my skin all day! The primer and finishing powders, and highlighters work beautifully too! There are products for every need. As for eyeshadow and cheek colors…you couldn’t ask for a wider range of colors! The sample baggies are a perfect way to test the products before you spend more. With mineral makeup you have total control of how much you use and they’re mixable and long lasting. These are superior products and I love everything I’ve purchased!

    I first discovered Aromaleigh in 2002, when I was directed to the owner's book on Aromatherapy and animals. I fell in love with so many of her products and have turned more than a few of my friends on to her mineral makeup. Everything is hand-crafted, lovingly packaged, and a joy to use.

    I have been a customer of Aromaleigh for quite a long time. I love all of their products that I have tried, especially their eyeshadows. The variety of colors is amazing and the owner comes out with new ones all the time. A lot of thought goes into her themed collections as well, which is reflected in the gorgeous packaging. I also love the mineral foundations and lip products. I definitely recommend that anyone who loves beautiful and unique makeup products look into Aromaleigh.

    Aromaleigh has SO many shade and coverage options, it makes it easy to find a perfect match. The prices are reasonable, but I still love that you can purchase samples so that you can try them before making a bigger commitment. Also, I break out easily, so I'm always nervous to try any new cosmetics, but these have all been great! I highly recommend any Aromaleigh products! :)

    Aromaleigh products are Rolls Royce quality at VW prices. No matter your complexion color you will find products to make you look fabulous. My skin is uber sensitive and in 10 years of use I have never had a breakout, rash or other negative reaction from any of the products. I love that I can order a ton of samples at a ridiculous low price to try colors I might not otherwise give try and have found some favorites that way. High Quality products, wonderful selection, reasonable (dare I say cheap?) prices and a woman owned small business = win win win!

    I had to write a separate review for Aromaleigh eyeshadows because of the sheer number of them! Oh, my; it's like being in the best candy shop in the entire world!!! I kid you not. The eyeshadow portfolio is both huge and genius. You will never find a color range like it anywhere else in the world: the mattes, the shimmers, the sparkles--and the crown jewel--the duochromes, or "traveling" shades! Each color is a revelation unto itself with its carefully blended colors and sparks, shimmers, and/or glitters. Truly gaspworthy! And the textures are superb and coverage to die for. These are not meek, mousy boring shadows. They are strong, witty, clever, and bold!

    Mineral makeup has great benefits over "traditional" makeup. I wear Aromaleigh because it is terrific if you have sensitive skin. It has natural, built-in sunscreen qualities. It goes on beautifully, and lasts longer than traditional makeup. But mineral makeup is not all the same! Aromaleigh mineral makeup is the real deal. No fillers, no bad stuff, just pure minerals. And it makes a huge difference on your face. Aromaleigh is the only makeup I use for foundation, blush and eyeshadow. There are SO MANY color choices, and picking what works for you is easy because she offers sample baggies that are inexpensive. They're my favorite thing to make sure I get just the right shades for me, and allows me to affordably try new fun colors of eyeshadows and blushes.

    I've been buying from Aromaleigh for quite a few years. At this point, it is pretty much all I use. I'm a sucker for her collections, each of which seems to be even better than the last. Lots of options for everyone. I'm a big fan of sparkles - old, short, and dumpy, so sales clerks and men walking towards me tend to ignore me. Glitter keeps men from walking into me, at least. Lots of sparkles to choose from, but also plenty of more subdued shades for those who prefer them.

    I've been purchasing Aromaleigh since at least 2015. I started with a few "oooh shiny!!" shades but have found myself coming back over and over again for the every day basics. Prelude powder is a staple for me, and I only add the Dewdrop foundation if I need "full" coverage. But Prelude is such a light, easy to wear skin perfecter that I get compliments on! The Norse mattes start most of my eyeshadow looks, and I love how easy they are to blend with high impact shades.

    I've been using Aromaleigh for about 8 years now and absolutely love every product I've tried of theirs. When I switched over to using the foundation my skin started looking and feeling better than it ever has. I love the wide range of shades with foundation, blush and eyeshadow! Highly recommend.

    I love Aromaleigh Cosmetics!! I wear make up almost daily. Aromaleigh has been my go to for almost 20 years. I have hundreds of shadows and dozen of blushes. I really enjoy putting on my Aromaleigh every morning. I found Aromaleigh because my sensitive skin was reacting to other cosmetics ingredients. I didn't have the problem with Aromaleigh because ingredients were listed and Christiana answered my dozens of questions and helped me isolate what I was reacting too. I share Aromaleigh every chance I get and I've brought many friends and family to the Aromaleigh addiction.

    I have been a regular customer of Aromaleigh for over 20 years. In all that time I’ve never been unhappy with anything I’ve ordered! Through the years I’ve gotten many compliments on my skin, how good I look, and many times the color of my eyeshadow. Cristiana is a very talented and exacting artist that pours so much beauty into her creations. She also listens to her customers and is very attentive to messages/contact. If you’re thinking of trying Aromaleigh, do it. I’m betting you’ll love it!

    I've been using Aromaleigh since roughly 2015 and have loved every product I've ever purchased. As a very pale person, at a time when the market was flooded is bronzes and gold toned makeups, Aromaleigh had the only foundations and highlighters that work for my skin tone. And the colour options are just phenomenal in every aspect. Everything is so well made and light weight that I've continued to use Aromaleigh through the years.

    I've been wearing Aromaleigh foundation for more than a decade. The range of foundation shades is HUGE and I love that Aromaleigh has a foundation to match my fair pink-toned skin. There are also different finishes you can choose from depending on what type of look you prefer. And the way it makes my skin look fine silk! There's no other mineral foundation like it in terms of feel, look, and color range! If your skintone is hard to match, just get a few samples and mix and match until you find the right shade for you!
