Hey everyone! We're on the third and final part of the spotlight on Shiro's Legends Collection! You can read part one here and part two here. Let's wrap this up!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


From the website: This mask was magically sealed away because the power contained within it was enough to destroy the world. Given the opportunity, I would probably make some bad decisions here.

Vivid blurple with orange shimmer and tons of red, green, and yellow sparks. Not lip-safe.

Ingredients: mica, carnauba wax, titanium dioxide, iron oxide, tin oxide, ultramarine blue, silicon dioxide, calcium aluminum borosilicate.

Personal Comments: This is one of my favorite Shiro shades! As the shop's description says, it's a beautiful blurple (that is, midway between blue and purple) with pink sparkles that shine best over a sticky base. Swatch done over Urban Decay Primer Potion and Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy. Swatch photos taken outside in natural light.

From the website: All your hearts are required to unlock the full potential of the Master Sword. This is the primary proof for the theorem “Less QQ more PewPew.”

Sheer, extra-sparkly pale taupe. Lip safe!

Ingredients: mica, carnauba wax, titanium dioxide, iron oxide, tin oxide, silicon dioxide, calcium aluminum borosilicate.

Personal Comments: This is another of my favorite shades! It's kind of a taupe leaning toward muted gold, if that makes any sense. It's light and sheer enough that it could make a good single-color wash over the lid for a minimal makeup look, though keep in mind it's very sparkly. Over a sticky base, the shade darkens and takes on more of a metallic finish. Swatch done over Urban Decay Primer Potion and Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy. Swatch photos taken outside in natural light.


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


From the website: Although described as a “powerful protective barrier,” this eye shadow will not protect you against pokes to the eye and I do not recommend attempting to use it as such. This has been a public service announcement.

Pale, satiny blue-periwinkle. Lip-safe!

Ingredients: mica, carnauba wax, titanium dioxide, iron oxide, tin oxide.

Personal Comments: This is a cute baby blue with white sparkles. I'm thinking it could make an interesting inner corner shade! It's satiny over silicone primer, but becomes shinier over a sticky base. Swatch done over Urban Decay Primer Potion and Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy. Swatch photos taken outside in natural light.


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


From the website: A puppet that can no longer be used is mere garbage. This puppet’s role has just ended.

Medium brown with strong green shimmer and orange and purple sparks. Not lip-safe.

Ingredients: mica, carnauba wax, titanium dioxide, iron oxide, tin oxide, silicon dioxide, calcium aluminum borosilicate, chromium oxide, ferric ferrocyanide.

Personal Comments: This is a rich brown with a bit of a green overlay and a ton of rainbow sparkles. This could be a great shade to darken the outer corner of your eye look. Swatch done over Urban Decay Primer Potion and Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy. Swatch photos taken outside in natural light.


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


From the website: The possibility of finding a few cents inside of a pot completely justifies tresspassing and destruction of property. This has been Life Lessons with Link – tune in next time to learn what Nayru’s Love can’t protect you from!

Rich coppery-brown filled with green, blue, and red rupees sparks. Lip-safe!

Ingredients: mica, carnauba wax, titanium dioxide, iron oxide, tin oxide, silicon dioxide, calcium aluminum borosilicate.

Personal Comments: This is a rich red-toned brown with a ton of sparkles. It definitely does best over a sticky base to hold onto all the glitter! Swatch done over Urban Decay Primer Potion and Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy. Swatch photos taken outside in natural light.

From the website: Hey! Listen! Do you ever feel like a cowardly weakling? Do you have trouble walking and chewing gum at the same time? Are you a dark lord with world-shattering ambitions? Get our new Triforce of Power, Wisdom, and Courage today – all three traits in one iconic symbol for your convenience!

Pure shimmering yellow gold with bright golden flecks. Lip-safe!

Ingredients: mica, carnauba wax, titanium dioxide, iron oxide, tin oxide, bronze powder, silicon dioxide, calcium aluminum borosilicate.

Personal Comments: This is another of my favorite shades - a gorgeous molten yellow gold. Whenever I say I love Shiro's metallic shades, this is one of the colors I think of. Swatch done over Urban Decay Primer Potion and Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy. Swatch photos taken outside in natural light.


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


From the website: The Spiritual Stone of Water, and it comes with a delightful little engagement! I hope it was worth it.

Deep teal with very strong green shimmer. Not lip-safe.

Ingredients: mica, carnauba wax, titanium dioxide, iron oxide, tin oxide, blue #1 lake, yellow #5 lake, ultramarine blue, ferric ferrocyanide.

Personal Comments: This is yet another of my favorite Shiro shades (I told you there were a lot in this section!), partially because it's one of the first samples I ever purchased from the shop. It's teal with a mild to moderate green overlay, somewhat reminiscent of light reflecting off the water. Swatch done over Urban Decay Primer Potion and Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy. Swatch photos taken outside in natural light.

And that's a wrap! What do you think of these shades? Will you be picking any up to try out? Will anyone else be busting out their N64 to go smash some pots now?
