Hey guys! Just a quick review on a new product I've been trying out recently that's been requested :-)
I'm actually in the middle about this product. It can be purchased from
Boots for £3.99, which I think is
reasonable for what the product is. The colour is really
beautiful though. I haven't tried any of the other shades out, but they come in silver, purple, blue, green, bronze, and obviously the nude shade I have. I really do love the colour of this particular one though. It's the
right balance between a light/nude brown and a greyish colour, and looks
very flattering with my blue eyes and pale complexion. You can blend the product well, for a
sheer look, or pack more product on for a more "
intense" look. It has a very
subtle shimmer, which surprisingly I really like, and I find it
brightens my eyes instantly.

I don't know if you can tell by the photo's above, but they texture of the product is very
"mousse-like", which makes the product easy to blend and gives off a very "
smooth" finish.

I love wearing this cream eye-shadow with a
brown pencil eye-liner smudged into my top and bottom lashes. It gives a very
messy/grungy, "
effortless" make-up look, which I find great for school or if I'm going somewhere and I need to get ready in a rush. It also reminds me of the
Olsen twin's make-up, which I'm a big fan of! I also like blending it into my crease with a fluffy blending brush, I usually use one by
No.7, which creates a
subtle contour to my eyes, and
brightens them. Although, I do find that when applied all over the lid, the product does
crease, a lot. Which I guess I don't mind too much, but if you're not a fan, then I definitely do not recommend this product. I've tried setting it with eye-shadow and priming my lids with my favourite primer (urban decay's primer potion) but it still creases very badly. I wouldn't recommend wearing this if you know you're planning on having it on for a long period of time!
All in all, I guess I do like this product and I'm glad I bought it as I find it's quick and easy to use, and I'm glad it's part of my collection :-)
I hope you found this helpful! And if you have any requests leave them below in a comment :-)
'Til next time,
