Shiro Cosmetic Intertubes

Intertubes are Shiro Cosmetic's take on colored lip balm. The colors can be worn sheer, or build to opacity. They cost $6.50 for 5.5gr for the full size, and they also have mini and sample sizes. What I love with these, is how dewy the finish look. They are also quite comfortable to wear.

On the website she warned that these products stains, so be careful when you wear them.

Now on to the colors:
Note that these are all worn sheer-ly. I only have the sample size of Over9000 and Richrolled and it's hard to build up color when you're applying with finger.

Why Not Zoidberg:
It's a wearable bright coral. The formula is smooth and looks dewy. This is my favorite among these 3. It's bright, but it has a translucent quality to it, which makes it wearable. I don't usually wear brights, but I felt comfortable wearing this.

Over 9000:
Cool medium pink. I feel that this shade clash with my skintone. The formula is the same as zoidberg, it's smooth and has a dewy finish.

Rickrolled:
Red orange, close to Why not Zoidberg, but has more red in it. I have this in the sample size, and it felt dry and patchy to touch, but feels fine once it's on the lips.

Shiro Cosmetic Swatches

Shiro Cosmetic is an indie brand that does a lot of video game and anime inspired color. Some of their collection covers Pokemon, Zelda, Death Note, Portal, Hunger Games, and recently Fullmetal Alchemist.

This time I ordered 6 mini size shadow, and 1 of their intertubes. Caitlin, the owner of Shiro Cosmetics included some candy and 3 sample size shadow as bonus.

Now for the swatches:

First I had to say that these colors are hard to accurately photograph. The camera just refuses to capture the colors the way I see it.

• Rebellion (The Tributes Collection):
  Dark blurple (blue-purple) with rainbow shimmer. But the shimmer doesn't really shows up when swatched, and dissapear when blended.
• Fullmetal (The Fullmetal Collection):
  Eggplant purple with magenta and gold shimmer.
• Zora Sapphire (The Legends Collection):
  Vibrant cobalt blue, the shimmer isn't obvious on this one too.
• Victory Road (The Super Effective Collection):
  Taupey gray with aqua overlay. I can't capture the overlay in the swatch picture.
• Chimera (The Fullmetal Collection):
  Grayish purple with aqua and pink shimmer? looks like Fullmetal with pink overcast to me. The color is similar, but this is lighter than Fullmetal.
• I Like Short (The Super Effective Collection):
  a pale copper color, maybe coffee late with shimmer.
