Synthetik Zero Cosmetics

I have a fetish for mineral eyeshadows, so when I heard of SynthetikZero from one of the lovely fellow YouTubers, I decided I needed to check them out. Reason being is of course, I love mineral shadows...but in particular bright/neon colors always catch my attention (and are always something I want to review as I notice neons are hard to get right in mineral form).


Thus I checked out the website, and emailed the owner Kinzi, to see what type of mini package deal I could get (in regards to samples of her shadows..as I noted at the time, not all her shadows were available on the website). After a little back and forth, Kinzi was kind enough to make me a special deal. Where I was able to purchase samples of all shadows she offered (which is total of 10 shadows) for $5.00 (which breaks down to $.50 a piece) and $3.00 shipping and handling fee. Overall paying $8.00 for the samples, which to me is a pretty good deal. I placed my order on 7/14 and received my package on 7/27. 

My package, minus a watermelon jolly rancher that I ate immediately

Cute bag that the shadow samples came in...love stars!

Let's get into some swatches of the products!!!


*denotes official description from website/store website

Also please note that the swatches are in order of applied WET and then DRY. Also the DRY swatch is applied on top of High Voltage Cosmetics Eye Base in Skin Tone. These were applied to the skin using Sigma E-55 (Eye Shader Brush), when applied WET ELF Studio Makeup Mist and Set was used.

Tropical is an aqua blue/turquoise with blue shimmer. When applied wet it is a darker aqua and the shimmer appears to be more silver than blue (which is noticeable in the flash picture).

Underwater is a royal blue with blue shimmer. When applied wet it takes on more of a neon blue color and appears to be matte. Do notice though when applied dry the color itself is a bit spotchy (and the dry swatched required 3 times of going over to get it to swatch properly).

*Underwater- Beautiful deep indigo blue mineral pigment eyeshadow with bursts of purple glitter

Iris medium purple with multi colored shimmer. However when applied wet it becomes a brighter purple with a TON of silver shimmer (think disco ball). 

*Iris Deep royal purple mineral eyeshadow pigment sparkling with tons of iridescent glitter! Also glows pink under blacklight!.

Neon Cupcake is a bright neon pink (think Barbie pink on steriods) with tons of multi-colored shimmer. When applied wet the shimmer stands out even more.
*Neon Cupcake Super bright hot pink mineral eyeshadow pigment with bursts of iridescent glitter! It doesn't get any louder than this! This color glows ultra bright in UV light

Sour Apple is a lime green with gold shimmer. When applied wet it takes on more of a frosty lime color. I would like to note this pigment was the easiest to swatch out of the neon/bright shadows.

Gunmetal is a metallic grey with shimmer. When applied wet it appears more of a gunmetal grey (think of what a shiny hand gun looks like) with a hint of duo chrome (possibly green).

Overall, I'm intrigued by Synthetik Zero Cosmetics. I'm hoping to give myself some time to play in the colors and come up with a FOTD (perhaps usable for a tutorial on the YT channel). Once, I have given these shadows a good testing..I will have an official review up.

Until then I suggest learning more about them.!!
