Glamour Doll Eyes Circus Collection Review & Swatches

Recently Glamour Doll Eyes released a new collection in collaboration with Natasha of Myeyeshadowisodd on YouTube. I absolutely adore her so I couldn't miss out on this collection. It just came out and I was lucky enough to be one of the first to place an order. I received my order in the mail today and I was super excited!! So I decided to show you guys the new collection so here we go!!!
Packaging and Contents:
So this is what came in the mail today that was part of the Circus Collection. 


This was the box that held all of the contents. It has a circus tent and Natasha on the front. 
This is what came in box! I don't know how the hell they managed to fit this into the small box! In the box came a cotton candy flavoured lollypop, the entire collection, a ticket (coupon), a GDE sticker, and two GDE business card both with Natasha on the front. (Pictured below)


This is the package in which the pigments came in. I absolutely love the labels. They're so cute. 

The Shadows!!
Sword Swallower
Is a nice silver pigment with small white specks of glitter.
Quite brighter when used wet and way more brighter than a lot of the silver shadows I have.


Oddity
Really lime green pigment with small fleck of Golden glitter.
It's really an interesting colour, not one I have in my collection, and it'll be nice playing around with it. 


Big Top
A light golden pigment with what seems to be white/pink flecks of glitter in it.
It's a nice light golden pigment when used dry, but if you want to turn up the amp use it wet, it'll become a true bright gold.



Fiji Mermaid
A teal pigment with blue flecks of glitter. 
This one is actually my favourite in the collection. So much so that I went and ordered a full size jar. 


Cotton Candy
Light blue pigment with pink flecks of glitter.
I actually like the colour combination with the pigment and glitter in this. I'm still trying to figure out how I'm going to use it, but damn sure I'm using this.



Electric Chair
Light white pigment with small flecks of white glitter.
As Natasha put it this is the highlighter in the collection, and I love it. It makes such a nice highlighter when dry, and a nice light silver when wet.



Bearded Lady
A brown pigment with silver flecks of glitter.
I actually love this colour! There are so many variations on how you can use it! The difference it has between using it wet and dry is amazing! Definitely buy this colour if you like neutrals!



Fire Eater
This is a GDE Eye Lights. Small orange, yellow, reddish cosmetic glitter.
I'm super excited to use this! This is such a nice colour combination for glitter!


Swatches:
Dry Swatches with no primer or sealer. (My camera does not do justice to these colours)
Left To Right: Fire Eater, Sword Swallower, Oddity, Big Top, Fiji Mermaid, Cotton Candy, Electric Chair, Bearded Lady 

Overall
I really like this collection. There is such a nice variation of colours. Some colours are going to be hard to work with for me, but I'll find a way to use them! 
Definitely a 4/5
