Beauty: Geek Chick: Timey Wimey

 Although it's Christmas season, I'll admit, I bought one Black Friday thing for myself. I decided on the brand new Timey Wimey (Dr. Who) eyeshadow set from Geek Chic. When it arrived I was having a CRAZY busy day. I tore it open took some pictures and did some sloppy swatches. When I went to make my post I just couldn't post those swatches. They didn't do it justice.






I loved that Geek Chick seals their eyeshadows. I never have to worry about my shadow getting unscrewed and all over the place. These are my FIRST full sized shadows I've boughten from Geek Chic and they're wonderful.

 Not only is their product great, but each set also gets custom labels. TW for Timey Wimey in the style of Doctor Who. LOVE IT! Great design work! If you look you can also see that it's sealed in plastic. It's a wonderful touch.





I also got coupon codes! SO AMAZING! I will be splurging with some Christmas money soon! I've got my eye on some Codex foundation!

 There are eight shadows in all for the Timey Wimey set and my sample was from the Portal set - Companion Cube.


The names of the shadows are
( First Row) We Are Coming, Sexy in Suspenders, Bigger on the Inside,

(Second Row) Untimely Love, Don't Blink, Bad Wolf, 

(Third Row) Exterminate!, and Yes, Sir.







I did my swatches in the same order as the above shadows.

I feel like most Geek Chic eye shadows, well most indie eye shadows, have this quality that store bought shadows lack. They look different from different angles. There is so much thought put into the way as well as the what. That is why I have several different angles of my hand posted.







I love how Exterminate! looks brown but at this angle you can see the gold sparkles just light it up! 








Sexy in Suspenders and Don't Blink are two of my favorites. I was wanting a good silver and then BOOM Timey Wimey came out. It's like they knew! Don't Blink is very sparkly and light. Sexy in Suspenders looks so tan at first but then the sparkles break through and it's a whole new shade. 







It's a wonderful collection! I'm so excited to finally have some Doctor Who themed make up! 

What do you think? Are you much of a 
Who-vian? Who is you're favorite? 

My boyfriend and I like Rory. So much so that his cat is named after him.
