Last week i received my first order from
Tick:Tock Cosmetics . This is a complete new indie company to me and i wanted to give it a go after seeing some gorgeous swatches . So i ended up with 15 samples and got 1 free.
I ordered on 7/18/12 and received it 8/3/12 ... so it was quite fast in my opinion !
This is the company's philosophy :
"Our company mission is to provide you with amazing cosmetic products that come in unique colors!"
♥All of our products are vegan and contain no animal by-products.
♥All of our products are tested on our friends, not on animals. We are 100% cruelty-free!
♥NONE of our products contain parabens, talc, or chromium dioxide green.
♥Oh yeah, and did we mention that our colors are 100% awesome? Okay, good. Because they are.
So yeah , i could find me in there !
The samples are $0,70 for 1/8 teaspoon in a baggie.
Full sizes are $4,95 for a 5 gram jar.
My first thoughts :
I was very surprised with these colors , they are unique and gorgeous.
They have a lot of sparkles too :) and are very pigmented .
They apply smoothly , and just like every kind of pigment you need a base .
On to the swatches !
The amount of product you see in the jar , is NOT the whole baggie ! Just a tiny scoop to show you how it looks in a jar . Color descriptions are from Tock Tock's website .
