These are surprisingly awesome! I may pick up Bride of Frankenstein after all!
Are these not available at Sephora? I may be crazy, but I can’t find them on the website.
I bought mine from Smashbox directly! Not sure if they’ll be at Sephora or not 🙁
Okay good to know! Thank you!
No dupes for Frankenstein (the green one?)? It may just be my phone or it may not, but the review ends by listing the ingredients. Which, by the way is my favorite new feature!!! If I see Aroma, Flavor, Parfum, Fragrance, Geraniol, Linalool, Limonene, etc in anything I am not buying it unless it’s something very special, and even then if it’s Perfume additive, can’t because I am allergic. This one’s 50/50 but I could swear I have a near MAC dupe or Fenty.
Also, I think you have a couple of slides from the burgundy shade in the green review mixed in.
I love your site!!! I use it everyday for something, so thank you for elevating and taking seriously something that is very important to me! It’s a Feminist move.
No dupes for Frankenstein! The tone/depth made it hard to dupe!
Absolutely love that green.
I do like Dracula – such a gorgeous red shade, with that comfortable creamy finish.
Ditto on this red.
