I was eager to try the Collection Little Mix All About The Eyes Palette ever since I'd seen Amelia Liana rave about so I searched for it every time I went into a Superdrug or Boots. To my annoyance, it was always sold out but I managed to eventually get my hands on it, and have been road testing it for a few weeks.
L-R Feather, Sunkissed, Golden Sand, Dazzling Brown, Cocoa Dream and Blackbird. |
The quality of the shadows really is great for the price. They are really pigmented, and blend really well. The finish of them is a bit of a mix. There are some shimmers, some less shimmery satin shades and the black is a matte. You've got Feather, your highlight there, Sunkissed, Golden Sand and Dazzling Brown as your lid shades, and Cocoa Dream and Blackbird for the crease. The black you can also use as a liner with a wet slanted brush.Whilst I found Sunkissed and Golden Sand a little to warm toned, I really enjoyed using Dazzling Brown, and it is the standout shade of the palette for me. It is a medium brown/taupey shadow, with gold-toned shimmer. It is super-pigmented, buttery and a great one-wash lid shade.
One disappointment, as always is the naffness that is the foam applicator, which did get tossed ASAP. I think they could have included a tiny brush and still kept the price point below a fiver. On the whole this is a great little drugstore nude palette, and one that I'm sure I will get a lot of use out of.
Ooooh! I love these neutral colours, they are always so flattering I find :) Also this is such a great deal! Thanks for sharing :)

Really nice palatte, I wish they'd just get rid of all applicators and make it cheaper, I'd always much rather use my own brushes, suppose a lot of yong girls will buy this one though :/

Those applicators are such a pain! Yeah that's probably why it was always sold out!!
