Geek Chic Cosmetics have just released a stunning Game of Thrones collection. The colours are beautiful and you know you want The Imp on your face. Born Of Fire is actually a little less blue than in the shot above - check the swatch on the site, it's gorgeous. I helped to write the chic colour descriptions (sadly not the hilarious geek ones) which was a lot of fun.
- Across The Narrow Sea - A lush, rich turquoise as deep as the sea at the end of the world. More green than blue, with gleaming seafoam highlight and a glimmer of aqua sparkles. Goes on opaque and smooth for even coverage. Can be used wet as an eyeliner. Not lip safe.
- Born In Fire - The rich, regal violet of the Targaryens with smokey indigo depths. Silky, with a pearlescent sheen and a scattering of glittering ruby embers. Born in Fire goes on opaque makes for a smouldering smoky eye. It can also be used wet as an eyeliner. Not lip safe.
- Brotherhood of Crows - Like a sword hidden beneath the black cloak, Brotherhood of Crows is a dusky black base with a glint of metallic gunmetal. In the light, it shines with a host of subtle silver shimmers. Goes on semi-opaque but is easily built up to full coverage. Can be used wet as an eyeliner.
- The Imp - An opulent, indulgent gold as rich as a Lannister and overflowing with silver stags, golden dragons and glittering ruby sparkles. As much bling as we could possibly fit into one chest.
- Kingslayer - A pearly white cloak of the Kingsguard which shines copper and golden in the light. The Kingslayer is iridescent, as multi-faceted and complex as the man himself. Kingslayer makes for a lovely highlight color and can even be used on the cheeks to add a coppery glow.
- The Pointy End - A taupe with a real edge to it, The Pointy End is your graduation from practice neutrals. Pearlescent and smooth as summer silk, with a sharp silver glint. The Pointy end makes for a lovely twist on a neutral smoky eye and can be used wet as an eyeliner.
- Sellsword - Deceptively simple and versatile, Sellsword is a smooth matte the colour of milk chocolate. Endlessly adaptable and all manner of useful, provided it doesn't get a better offer.
- The Spider - A disarmingly delicate, effeminate pastel halfway between pink and lavender. Light and silky, The Spider glides smoothly over the skin for a semi-opaque finish. Not lip safe
Aren't they lovely? And you can buy them right here. They're $4.99 each or $3.99 each if you buy the full set, which is really reasonable.

14 August 2011 22:09Serioussllyyyyy. I cannot wait to swatch them. Born In Fire, The Pointy End and Brotherhood of Crows I think are my favourites.
14 August 2011 22:10I'm not but I really ought to be. I've just been too lazy to do it. I often want to talk about books, though. I thought about a book-day each week or something, but I'm terrible at sticking to routine.
14 August 2011 22:29I am loving those shades! I definitely need Across the Narrow Sea, The Pointy End, and The Imp in my life. XD
14 August 2011 22:44Yes! A thousand times yes! So excited for these!
14 August 2011 22:49Totally bought these, since the eyeshadow and my book set are the closest I'll even get to owning Tyrion or Jaqen. (Now I need a Lannister to pay my debts, for serious.)
15 August 2011 00:18@Niko - I knowwww. I need them all ._.
15 August 2011 01:21@Erin - Seriously! Amgadsopretty.
@Amanda - Uhm, Jaqen is *MINE*. A girl has dibs.
I am so loving the renewed popularity of A Song of Ice & Fire and all the awesome shiny things that it's inspiring! Definitely getting these for myself for my birthday, hehe.
15 August 2011 02:02Ahh, they beat me to it! I've been planning a GoT collection since before the HBO series was even announced. Those look lovely. ^_^
15 August 2011 02:50SO getting these. They look amazing! I can't wait to see swatches ^^
15 August 2011 03:27I am SO sad they sell samples in clamshells, although at that price for the full set it isn't that bad!
15 August 2011 03:43people looked at me funny today. it was cause i squealed really loudly and then went "the pointy end!"
15 August 2011 07:50yeah.. i'm lame...
I am actually attracted to kingslayer though... as well as the actual kingslayer... so WRONG
These are so gorgeous. I especially like Born in Fire and Brotherhood of Crows.
15 August 2011 08:54What a gorgeous collection! I definitely need Across The Narrow Sea and Born In Fire.
15 August 2011 18:42@Jessica - Yes! I hope we get more with the 2nd season. I want Jaqen stuff.
16 August 2011 16:22@Caitlin - Can never have too many SoIaF collections >:[
@Phoenix - Haha, I can't wait either XD
@Ciambella - My samples were always in baggies. When did they switch to clamshells?
@Tariray - Hahahaha. Idk, I think Jamie is pretty hawt. I'd go there if Jaqen didn't have my heart :o
@Frances - Born In Fire, Brotherhood of Crows and The Pointy End are my favourites I think.
@Gio - You definitely do :D
