Aromaleigh Spells! Collection Swatches and Review



As promised, here are some swatches from Aromaleigh's last few limited edition eyeshadow collections before it closes shop for good. Spells! was inspired by all things Harry Potter. As I have mentioned in a previous post featuring a look using Spells! shadows, The Spells! collection is aptly named and transports me back to the time when I was reading the series. The collection reminded me of my imaginary eye shadow color story inspired by this literary and pop cultural phenomenon. I was glad that some of the colors that were brewing in my mind were brought to life by Aromaleigh.  Ravenclaw look, anyone?  What about Slytherin eye look?

Here are swatches from the collection:

Blue Eye Look and Tutorial Featuring Aromaleigh Spells!, Mythos and Wonderstruck Eye Shadows


Wonderstruck collection


Mythos collection


Spells! collection


Individual shadows I used for this look

If you checked out my Aromaleigh Spells! Eye Look and Tutorial, you would see how lovely the shades are from the new Harry Potter eyeshadow collection. This time, I will be featuring a simple but vibrant look using one eyeshadow each from Aromaleigh's Wonderstruck collection, which is inspired by Alice in Wonderstruck, Spells!, and Mythos, which is inpired by Greek Mythology. Check out the names of the shadows, they are so cute!

I also used one of my favorite shadows from Aromaleigh, Poison Utopia from the Victoria's Revenge collection.

Here is a step by step. All eye products Aromaleigh unless otherwise stated.


Apply Urban Decay in Sin primer potion all over lid and lower lashline. Using a fluffy shader brush, apply MAC Rollickin' paint pot on lid.


Using the Charm Pro shader brush, apply Looking Glass foiled on the lid using MAC Fix+.


Using the same shader brush, apply Imperio dry on the outer lid using patting motions.

Gold and Bronze Eye Look and Tutorial Using Aromaleigh Spells! Mineral Eye Shadows





Aromaleigh sent me samples of its new (and one of the last) limited edition eyeshadow collections inspired by - guess what - Harry Potter! The Spells! collection is aptly named and transports me back to the time when I was reading the series. Looking at the shades, it reminded me of my imaginary eye shadow color story inspired by this literary and pop cultural phenomenon. I was glad that some of the colors that were brewing in my mind were brought to life by Aromaleigh. As expected, Aromaleigh impressed me with the rich, pigmented colors of these shadows. I am glad it decided to release three last eyeshadow collections before it closes its doors for good.

I will be making some swatches of these shades, but first, here is an eye look featuring some of the neutrals and bronzes from this collection:
