Ah, the collection many of you have been waiting for!
Aromaleigh's description of this collection:
"
Aromaleigh Halloween 2014 presents the “DIAVOLI” collection. Diavoli
translates to devil in Italian, and this collection is inspired by the
devilish demons of Dante Alighieri’s Inferno. There’s 13 colors inspired
by the Malebranche of the 8th circle of Hell, which in italian is
called “Malebolge”, which translates to “evil ditches”.
The Malebranche (which means “evil claws”) were 13 devilish demons who patrolled the 5th Bolgia. (only
12 are named in the Inferno). Bolgia 5 was where extortionists,
blackmailers, politicians and unscrupulous businessmen: sinners who used
their positions in life to gain personal wealth or other advantages for
themselves) are punished by being thrown into a river of boiling tar.
Should they try to escape, the Malebranche, armed with grappling hooks
and barbs, stand guard over them. Visual inspiration comes from my own
reader’s eye, as well as illustrations and paintings by Gustav Doré,
Sandro Botticelli, Giovanni di Paolo and Giovanni Stradano.
The shades in this collection all feature a plush matte base with strong color-traveling duochrome/multichrome pigments. You
can experience this color traveling effect by altering the angle of
light as it reflects off your eyeshadow. The easiest way to do this is
to move your jar/swatched skin underneath a direct light source, such as
a desk lamp. As you move it, you’ll see the color switch from one to
another. The effect is very dramatic in some shades."
