8 Bit Cosmetics - Everyone's A Hero




 

The lovely Nicole from 8 Bit Cosmetics recently sent some samples of her newest collection, Everyone's A Hero, for the gift bags and a few for me to test out. I chose four that stood out to me. Truthfully I wanted to keep the whole collection. I am going to order the ones I am missing soon. I am in LOVE with this collection. I have not been this excited about a loose pigment collection in some time!!



 I chose The Cat, which is a dark matte purple, Apocalyptic, which is described as teal which shimmer, All American Hero which is described as a true royal blue and Protege, which is described as red with a berry tint. I really like the formula of the matte shades. Above are sample baggies which I potted into my own 3 gram jars. Samples are only $1 and as you can see, you get a lot of product!!

Here is a look I did using The Cat and Protege
Here is a look I did last week using Will, Apocalyptic, All American Hero and The Cat

I have tried quite a few different colors from 8 Bit Cosmetics and so far I have been HIGHLY impressed. The colors are gorgeous and the textures have been very easy to work with. All the pigments I have tried have been opaque and very vivid. If you are looking to add some bold color to your collection than check 8 Bit Cosmetics out! Pricing range from $1 samples to $4 jars.  You can see some of my other 8 Bit swatches here and here

Have you tried 8 Bit Cosmetics? If so, what pigments do you have and what are your favorites?

  1. I've never heard of this company before, I think. The Cat, Apocalyptic and All American Hero sort of look like the colors in the newer Sugarpill palette, or am I imagining that?

    1. They are in the same color family for sure. If you were to compare I would say The Cat was closer to Poison Plum, Apocalyptic is much more teal than Mochi and All American Hero is fairly close to Velocity.
