Detrivore Cosmetics: Review | Swatches

Finally, it's time for my Detrivore review/swatches! And it's just in time for their awesome 10 for $20 sale {on full-size jars!}... so let's get to the good stuff.

:::  THE SPECS  :::

I ordered way back when... probably in February. I ordered during a sale, so the prices I paid are not the "normal" prices — so I'll list the non-sale prices for the products.

:::  (3) Full-size eyeshadows at $4.00 each for 5g jars {I got the 3 for $10 deal}
:::  (9) Sample baggies at $1.00 each — not sure how much product, but I know it's quite a bit more than other companies' samples.

TAT is currently 1-20 days, which is normal. Shipping costs $3.00 for orders under $50 {U.S.} and $5.00 internationally. U.S. orders over $50 receive free shipping.

:::  THE OPINIONS  :::

My favorites of the bunch are Dust Bunny, Muse, Scar, Luna and Mildew. Topiary is a color that I have heard about from many fellow customers who absolutely love it. It's a nice neutral, but it just wasn't my kind of color. I've seen many great EOTD looks done with Topiary, so if you're looking for a well-loved neutral, I know it's highly recommended. All of the eyeshadows applied like butta — soft and silky, great pigmentation, little fallout. A dream to work with! Detrivore has something for everyone, and it doesn't stop at eyeshadows; check out the lip glosses, blushes, primers and more!

Stay Fabulous!

  1. Yay :-D I recently ordered from Detrivore, as well. I ordered 4 shadows and a blush, as well as a gloss. Then they ran a 10 for $20 recently, so I ordered ten shadows today -- some of them are the ones you swatched :-) I can't wait to do a swatch post when I get everything!

    1. I really need to try their blushes next time I order! I look forward to seeing all of your swatches!
