Makeup Geek Voodoo is the most bad ass pigment of them all. It’s stunning.

Makeup Geek Foiled Lip Glosses Swatched

I did these lip swatches with no pencil, rather quickly, so they’re not perfect. If I were going to wear these lip glosses, I would apply a lip pencil first.

VIP – Light peachy pink.
VIP is more of a light peach with a hint of pink on me.

Set List – Medium rose with light pink reflects.
Set List looks almost like a rose gold on me. It’s very warm toned.

Headliner – Rich copper.
Headliner is a deep aged copper with brown undertones.

Vinyl –Medium taupe with silver reflects and subtle purple undertones.
Vinyl is a deep taupe with silver sheen. The purple undertone is very subtle but more noticeable in person.

Backstage – Deep purple with royal blue reflects.
Backstage is a deep warm purple. It actually makes me think of blueberry jelly.

Drumroll – Mid-toned purple with pink reflects.
Drumroll is a magenta purple with pink reflects.

Groupie –Brightened fuchsia with purple reflects.
Groupie is a blindingly bright fuchsia with purple shift. I love this color.

Replay –Bright pinky coral.

Acoustic – Oxblood red.
Acoustic is a deep oxblood red on me.

Makeup Geek Foiled Lip Glosses & Pigments Review

Makeup Geek says that the Foiled lip glosses are the perfect hybrid of metallic shine, highly reflective, and long wearing, up to 6 hours. Every shade is vegan except for Acoustic and Headliner.

The lip gloss packaging is gorgeous. I love the glitter ombre effect on the lids. They look luxe.

I felt like the price tag of $15 put the glosses at department store pricing, so less on the affordable side. One thing I didn’t like is that I couldn’t find the size of the gloss listed on the website.

All Makeup Geek Foiled Lip Glosses & Pigments are made in the USA with high quality ingredients and they’re cruelty free.

I personally don’t like to wear gloss, so I can’t speak to the long wearing part. The formula feels like it hugs my lips. It isn’t sticky like what I remember a MAC lipglass feeling like. However, it still manages to come off on my front teeth because I must do something weird with my lips. So while I think the colors are beautiful, gloss just isn’t for me. If you are a fan of gloss, I think you will love the formula. It’s comfortable to wear, very pigmented and pretty. If you’re not a fan of gloss, skip these.

Makeup Geek says that the Foiled pigments are a mesmerizing mix of mineral pigments and pearl that come together to create a truly versatile metallic loose powder that can be used anywhere on the face or body.  Some of the shades are vegan. The following shades are not vegan – Telepathic, Illusion, Firefly, Hocus Pocus, and Enchanted.

The Foiled pigments are comparable in price to the Duochrome pigments. I’m a fan of both.

I’m not really sure how these differ from other loose pigments that Makeup Geek makes or that I own. I love pigments. These are easy to work with.  I think the packaging is nice and the sifters keep too much product from coming out at once. If you like loose pigments, I think you’ll love these.
