Recently on my Facebook page I inquired to my followers what brands of make up I should check out and one of the suggestions was
Glamour Doll Eyes! I had read a bit about this company and really liked the swatches I was able to find on the internet. With so many positive reviews I decided to place my order on Tuesday and it was here to greet my mailbox on Friday afternoon!
Inside the package was one of the most impressive packing and promo material I have ever received from an "indie" company. A brochure detailing a lot about the company, How To Create look card, stickers, business cards, Thank You card from Vee (the owner) & samples!

After taking a few moments to look over all the materials in the package I dove right into the eye shadows. I had ordered 11 sample jars of eye shadows that were all blended by Vee and not listed with an *. I have quite an extensive eye shadow/mineral collection and didn't want to chance getting a dupe color. I wanted to see what amazingness Vee had concocted up!
From Glamour Doll Eyes website:
What does the * next to the shadow name in a listing mean?
The colors that are listed with a * by their names means that they are unblended. This means that we take minerals/pigments in its truest form besides adding powders (on most occasions) to improve slip, adhesion, blend ability and longevity. This allows us to offer a wide variety of colors at the customers request while still being able to spend more time creating more complex colors. This might also mean that some of these colors are close or exact dupes to other companies that offer unblended shadows as well, so please read descriptions and swatches carefully.

I'm really impressed with some of these colors. They all swatched smoothy and had great color pay out. I was even more so wowed with colors like Veteran, Undead & Sex Appeal because they looked pretty in the jars but OMG when I got them on my arm I just stared at how stunning they are. I will most definitely be ordering from this company again to get a few more colors that caught my eye.

For all of you thinking about trying GDE: Glamour Doll Eyes has a great
Sample Section where you can get all their eye shadows and collections in sample bags or jars. Shipping is free on all samples and if you dig your colors enough they will credit the balance paid for a sample jar or bag towards a full size one - just send them an email prior to ordering.
Thanks for reading! XOXO
