Get It Before It's Thrown Into The Incinerator! Shiro Cosmetics' Discontinued Science Collection Sale


     Even though The Science Collection has been out for a few years, it is now being discontinued with the remainder being sold for 20% off its original price. Based off the original video game Portal, I knew I had to buy some of these shadows!  I have only recently started playing this highly popular game in the past few months, and it’s amazing.  Owning a part of a collection associated with it containing gorgeous, quality colors is a glam nerd’s dream come true.  Every color has a clever name associated with quotes from the game.

     What I love about the shadows from Shiro is how easily the pigments blend onto the eye area without having to pack a lot of product on. The jars always arrive jam-packed with product, too, whether it be full-sized or a larger sized sample jar.

     


 Check out the Shiro Aperture lid, and how much product is packed into the jar (this was after a few uses, too!)

Without Flash- The pigments I purchased (from left to right) were Because We Can, Party Escort, Beta, and You Were Adopted. Used with I-Candy Eye Primer.

     According to Shiro Cosmetics, each pigment is described as such:

     Because We Can- “Super-bright shimmery hot pink with flashes of silver. Lip-safe!”

She wasn’t kidding when she said this is “super-bright.” It’s a gorgeous, girly pink that also makes a great lip/blush color.

     Party Escort- “Shimmery blackened silver with lots of red sparks. Lip-safe!”

I found that this color actually requires a little more building up to achieve as much drama as the other colors. It looks GREAT directly on top of the other colors!

     Beta- “Shimmery blackened emerald. Not lip-safe”

Another gorgeous shade of green. Blends really nicely with You Were Adopted.

    You Were Adopted- “Dark shimmery grey-blue with flashes of silver and green. Not lip-safe.”
Wowzers, is this a bold color!  It really stands out if you want a heavier pigment.

You Were Adopted on the lid, Blended in With Beta on the Crease and Outer "V."

     I’d like to try out some of the other colors as well, but I’m not sure how much longer these shades will be up for grabs.

     Be sure to snag The Science Collection while it’s “Still Alive.” ;)
