I have been waiting for this order a looong time, but it was truly worth waiting for! :) This webbstore was new to me and I first read about it on the mmu forum on Specktra.net.
I placed the order February 29 and it arrived March 25. Holly (the owner) did send some emails to keep me updated about my order and she did throw in two full size eyeshadows to make up for the delay. This store is a one person operation, but she has hired some help now so hopefully she will get the ordering time down a bit in the future.
Archetype cosmetics looks and seems like the lovechild of Fyrinnae and The She Space, for better or for worse... :) The site has a cute gothic design and a romantic underground atmosphere with unusual graphic color descriptions.
The Archetype eyeshadow samples are only $0.25 and samples of the lipglosses are $1. I got no less than 33 eyeshadows and 3 lipglosses and I payed $18.25 with shipping to Sweden. Not bad!
I wore one of the eyeshadows today and my first impression was that the staying power was good. I think I will order some fullsizes, but I'll wait for the tat time to improve first.
Updated with swatches!
The swatches was made with a dry brush an taken in bathroom lightning.
The Ornaments Of Gold sample deserved a photo of its own. It is a truly unique sparkling black gold. The second photo shows both a dry and a wet swatch.
