Ok you folks, Shiro Cosmetics is something I've been meaning to check out for a while but when I say I went in... I went IN! Again! Like... so excite to own all these beauties and play with them! This is my collection of new samples that either fit into a collection I've already reviewed or are random stranglers. I figured it would be easier to create a cohesive look with these shadows if I simply grouped them together versus tried to subdivide them into collections.
Availability: Shiro is no longer in business.
Would I buy this again? I can't say for sure yet.
Notes: Notes will accompany each shade respectively.

There Are Secrets Everywhere from A Collection of Calamitous Cosmetics - is described as a soft black base with a strong metallic bronze glow. I'd say this is as described, a black base (I would say it's quite intense) with a bronze and golden micro-shimmer. So beautiful! I think it would make a cool eyeliner if used wet.
Milk-Light of the Moon from the Into The Unknown Collection - is described as a soft wispy green-tinted grey with strong ice blue shift. I'd have to say this is a as described except that the green in the grey is much more prominent in the sample baggy versus when swatched, it just looks like an off-grey with aqua-ish blue micro-glitter. This is a beautiful shade and I think it would make a fun, rather unique, highlighter shade.
Through the Wood from the Into the Unknown Collection - is described as a bright fiery red-orange, with gold shimmer and sparkle. This has a GORGEOUS burnt orange base loaded with orange-y red and gold micro-glitter. I love this one so much.
Wizard Wheezes* from the Marauders, Mugwups, and Muggles Collection - is described as purple and green sparkles sitting pretty in a shiny blood orange base. I would personally describe this as having more of a pink grapefruit shade base wit a pink pearl and silver-green and pink micro-glitter. It's quite glittery and would look amazing over a tacky glitter base.
Mother of Dragons* from the Seven Kingdoms Collection - is described as a silvered royal purple over a blood-red base. I'd say this is a cool-toned freshly drawn blood colored base with an intense silver, almost graphite-like shimmer. Honestly I feel like the pearl in here competes, rather than enhances, the base color although when blended out thoroughly the red does stand out.
a fell voice on the air from the Just Legolas Things - I apologize for not having a description as I thought I either lost or gave the shadow away which, of course, I was confused as I couldn't see myself giving a shade like this away. It is a very beautiful cool-toned purple with a teal micro-shimmer pearl. I think it's absolutely stunning and has mermaid vibes so I was obviously all about owning it.
Please let me know if you have any questions or comments.
Disclaimer: I paid for these myself with the exception of the shades marked off with an asterisk which Shiro kindly included as a gift with purchase.
