Here's another lovely addition that I received recently from Anastasia of Beverly Hills. I had the chance to use it over the weekend, and admittedly I was very impressed at the fact that I could use all of the colours! I usually avoid acquiring mixed hued palettes that are loaded simply because when I do it's typically several colours that I cannot use. However, this is not one of those!
I've stated before that one of the best elements that I enjoy viewing prior to product usage is the packaging. And with the She Wears It Well retro-glam inspired kit Anastasia does not disappoint!
Things to love: Filled with earthy and neutral highlighting shadows. Think vintage! Smokey eye smudges archived with a glamourous twist or even a frosting glow for that fresh-faced dose of sexy that you're going for daytime. Well, that and more is provided in this stylish faux-croc beauty wrapped compact.
(Above-Top) Night Owl: A Knockout Smokey Eye, (Bottom) Cut a Rug: A Classic Cut Crease
Pros: With step by step guided pictorials on the back of each beauty card included (which also has the nostalgia of fashion plates) it's quite easy to follow along for eyeshadow applications. It doesn't matter whether you are a novice or a seasoned beauty aficionada there's room to tailor each themed look for the occasion and shape of your eye. For example, I adjusted a couple of looks because my eyes are already an exaggerated almond shape. For the smokey look I did not need to use as much on my eyelid.
Cons: Although I do not have any, perhaps if you simply loathe make-up and beauty products in general that's the only way I'd see this as a problem!
*The verdict: I completely give this a 9.8 out of 10 for near perfection + the superb marketing as usual. I could use every colour in the kit and adored the whole package!
Have you acquired any autumn beauty colours yet? Which ones are your favourite?
