Front Cover, A Billion Stars..................

Something I look forward to every year is the Christmas Special Presentation packs that Boots always have for the 3 For 2 promotion.

FrontCover always have some of the best, and this year is no exception.

I picked up one of the larger gift sets....

A Billion Stars.......

 This for me is by far the best kit, its all about Eyes and Eyes are definitely my thing, lol.

This set is one of the more expensive ( £35.00 ) but you get soooo much....

 Frontcover A Billion Stars Eye Colour Collection comes with:

4 x Shot Silk Effect Eyeshadows

4 x Domed Twinkle Baked Powder Eyeshadows

4 x Satin Pressed Eyeshadows

4 x Domed Baked Powder Eyeshadows

Pot of Silver Stars

Pot of Holographic Glitter

2 Iridescent Pigments

Shadowbase

Shadowline

Eye Effects Glue

Double-Ended Eye Applicator

Frontcover to Go Compact

 

 

 

I just loveee this set. I have reviewed Front Cover Shadows before and they are such great quality, if you just take the 8 pan shadows into account, they work out at £4.37 each, which I think is fab value. This is without the loose pigments, shadow base, shadow compact, eye effects glue or shadow line.

I hope that you will agree that this kit is fab, who wouldn't love this as a Christmas gift??

Billion Stars is available from Boots both in store and online.

Would you like to see a look of the day using this set???

Front Cover Eye look...........

I managed to try out the beautiful Front Cover Baked Eye Shadows today :))

 They are so shimmery and pretty I really enjoyed putting them on!!

Here is the final look....

I used Power Puff all over my lid, its a really pretty golden champagne colour, not sparkly at all just beautifully reflective, the shimmer on these shadows is just fab!!

Next I applied Twinkling Grape into my outer V and socket, this colour is alot darker in the pan than when you apply on the eyes, nice and soft, blended really well with Powder Puff.

I ten applied Black Sparks with a damp brush as a liner along my upper and lower lash line. This is the most beautiful dark navy with tiny ting blue glitter through, it is such a shame that you cant see just how pretty in the photos. You cant really notice the glitter unless in the light so its also wearable in the day!!

Lastly I I used Moonstone as an inner eye and brow bone highlight.

I really did enjoy using these shadows, there was little or no fallout from the shadows with is refreshing as some mineral shadows fall out terrible.

They blend well and feel soft and silky on the eye.

I'm impressed and will defiantly be getting some more of these fab well priced little shadows!!!

Front Cover Baked eyeshadows.......

Last week the lovely people over at FrontCover Cosmetics asked me if I would like to try some of their baked eye shadows. I jumped at the chance as I have looked at the sets they do, mostly at Christmas in my local Boots, and always liked what I have seen.

This is what I received....

A Front Cover Ready to fill compact and 4 baked shadows.

The concept behind these products is the luxury of only having colours that you want in your compact.

The Compact itself is £5.00 and the shadows £4.00.

At selected Boots stores you can purchase the compact and 4 shadows for £15.00, saving £6.00.

This puts them slightly above drugstore prices, but way below the likes of Mac. 

The compact has a large mirror and a handy 2 ended brush, something I never normally use in palettes, however this one is soft and good quality, ideal for quick fixes through the day.

I couldn't wait to swatch the colours!!!

Indoors, natural light.

L To R

Powder Puff, Moonstone, Twinkling Grape and Black Spark

Outdoors in sunlight

The texture of the powders is smooth and silky. The shades are what they call Twinkle Powders, and I can say they really are. The photos really don't show how pretty these colours are. Black Spark is a deep deep navy with tiny particles of blue glitter, not so sparkly that you look like you belong on the Christmas tree, just the right amount.

I'm looking forward to trying these out :))

Ill post the look tomorrow :))
