This gothic makeup collection from HipDot was inspired by My Chemical Romance's album Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge. Released in the early 2000s, this album quickly became a staple amongst emo kids, inspiring new makeup and fashion styles.
The makeup palette aims to be reflective of this moment in fashion, serving a nine-color eye shadow palette that boasts dark red, black and purple hues. No goth-inspired makeup collection would be complete without a bold black liquid eyeliner, and HipDots arrives with a smudge-proof formula that's perfect for achieving a variety of looks. A double-end brush is also included in this line. To top everything off, the collection arrives with My Chemical Romance-inspired branding, making for a collector's piece.
