I placed a Shiro order last night cause it is almost October and I am not sure what happens to the current COTM when a new month happens!  I ordered I Am Groot, Doge and I Tried and the complete Nic Cage glosses (mini sized).

Also I voted for Sweater weather and whatever the golden colored one was Autumn something.

And I finally started following some of the indie companies on FB so I can be in the know about codes, collections and swatches!

 
Hello everyone, thanks to @@BSquared and @ I am the newest thread member. What have I gotten myself into now?

To contribute to the greatness here, y'all need to check out Chaos Makeup Artist, first of all she makes a killer highlighting powder and right now if you pre-order her new lipstick line then you get 24 lipstick and a metal refillable tin palette, for $30 and the colors are bad ass! Everything from black-blue to nude.

Yes! She just posted a video on her facebook page showing some of the bold colors in the set, and you can't beat that price!

I have I Tried and Doge, and they are beautiful! I just celebrated my 5 year anniversary with the bf, and for my look I used Doge as the brow highlight, I Tried over most of my lid, and GDE Lovers Lane in the crease. It was so pretty over Glitter Fix and I'm sad there wasn't enough light for a photo, I'm going to have to do the look again.

 
Ooh that sounds so pretty! If you recreate it, and can photo it please do! And I will soon own all the colors for that look, so I am totally going to try it!  I bought doge because someone on here stated it was the perfect champagne color (and I love the memes!) and I tried, looked pretty and also loved the name/theme/reason behind it!

Congrats on 5 years!

I have an obsession with anything Doge related. It doesn't look like a shade I would use, but my only thought process right now is "BUT DOGE". Welp.

I just watched the video, I NEED that black-blue! This thread is already murdering my wallet and I just subbed this afternoon lol

If you want a little doge in your life, when I get my order I can send you a little sample baggie of it.  Then you can swatch it's prettiness on your arm, and admire the sparkles with out the commitment of spending money on something you won't wear!

Thank you for the offer! I actually want the packaging the most though LOL, I just think it would be hilarious to have him staring out from my makeup collection.

 
I came home and the custom color by @@marigoldsue was in my mailbox. IT. IS. GORGEOUS. It looks orange in the bag but in the skin it is SUCH a pretty goldy pinky sparkley color that just looks like sunshine.I am so excited, and will be so proud, to wear this. Screw fall, ALL THE PINK!
Mine, too! I love it, soooo pretty!

 
Okay, gang, I'm just barely starting the indies-do-fandom directory.  So far, it looks like this (scroll down to the Supernatural section to see what it will look like with links included.  I started with that one before I realized I needed to alphabetize):

Alice in Wonderland

Doctor Who

Firefly

Fringe

Game of Thrones

Hannibal

Lord of the Rings/The Hobbit/etc.

Orange Is the New Black

Sherlock

Supernatural

Does that structure make sense?  I'm thinking that fen would want all of, say, the Doctor Who stuff, and they won't necessarily care that a particular company also does Supernatural, comic books, Twin Peaks, etc.

I think it looks great, thank you for creating this! :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
Not that I'm aware of.  It would probably be worth compiling lists, but then there are companies that weren't doing fannish things that suddenly start, so it would not be a static list.  Like GDE with the upcoming Orange Is the New Black, Grease, The New Girl, Pretty Little Liars collections.  Until now, the only fandom represented with that company was comics with the Super Shadows line.  And then there are companies that do fannish things already that add new collections.  The list would never be complete or static.  I'm on vacation this week, though, so I could work on pulling something together, especially if people could point me in the direction of companies other than:

  • Notoriously Morbid
  • Geek Chic Cosmetics
  • Shiro Cosmetics
  • Fandom Cosmetics
  • Daily Lovelies
  • Espionage Cosmetics
  • Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab
  • Darling Girl Cosmetics
  • Victorian Disco
  • Hello Waffle
This would be SO amazing! And OITNB goodies- OMG!

 
Okay, question time!  Which makes more sense:  Anime/manga in general with the specific fandom noted, or each separate work with its own section?  So it would look like:

Anime/manga
  • Geek Chic Cosmetics - La Fillette Revolutionnaire (Revolutionary Girl Utena)
Or

Revolutionary Girl
  • Geek Chic Cosmetics - La Fillette Revolutionnaire
I'm already lumping comic book properties together since GDE and NB don't separate Marvel and DC, so it kind of seems like I should follow suit on anime/manga.  Or does anyone really even care?

I'd go with anime/manga lumped together. It's easier that way, because you don't have to try and see if you can find your specific series.
