Swatch Post: Notoriously Morbid December Vanishing Cabinet


Hi everyone! So today I have some swatches of Notoriously Morbid's December Vanishing Cabinet subscription box. This is my first month receiving the VC and I'm completely in love. The theme for this month's subscription is Merry Monsters. This box pays homage to classic villains from popular slasher/scary films such as Chucky, Freddy Kreuger, and Jason.

I've received my new camera but I'm still learning the ropes so I apologize that some of the later images are blurry. I figured I would include them anyway since you can see the shimmer better in some of the shades! Also, the patchiness you see on Rouge for Reagan is entirely due to user error. I wanted to heavily swatch it so you could get a good idea of the base shade but I stupidly put it over Glitter Glue. GG + Matte shades = patchiness.

Mittens for Michael is a medium purple with silver shimmer. These are the kinds of shades I immediately gravitate towards as a purple-fiend. Mittens for Michael is a very wearable purple so for those of you who struggle to wear purples without looking bruised, this one is for you. Cooler-toned gals will look especially good in this.

Jammies for Jason is a mid-tone grey with light gold and multi-colored shimmer. This would be a nice shade for a quick neutral eye. Just sweep some of it in your crease or along your lashline smudged out as an eyeliner.

Choo Choo for Chucky is a creamsickle shade with light pink shimmer. Pretty shade but probably my least favorite here as I'm not a big fan of pinks on myself. This would pair really nicely with the next shade though!


Fringe Coat for Freddy is an intense bronze with heavy gold shimmer. HNNGGG. This color is absolutely gorgeous! Hands down my favorite shade from the collection. This baby is so pigmented. Over GG, it just glows. In person, the effect is even more intense. I know I will be getting a lot of use out of this color.

Rouge for Reagan is a berry shade that blends down to a soft mauve. It looks a little scary in the heavy swatch but as you can see, it blends out to a very wearable shade. This will be a good blush to pair with colorful looks as it adds a natural flush to the cheeks without it being bam!, color.

Lipgloss for Leatherface is a dark berry with brown undertones. I haven't had a chance to try this one out on the lips but I really like the color. The name is quite hilarious too, I totally had a quick mental image of Leatherface delicately applying this! haha.
