Let’s have a closer look, shall we?

EYE SHADOWS:

The shadows are creamy and the colors can be mixed together & built up for a richer color payoff. I have swiped some of these colors 2-3 times to show the true color.

Nobody Compares– This color is described as “Metallic silver” and yes, the color is true to the claim.

Tell Me A Lie– Described as “Metallic nude pink”. I wouldn’t describe it as “pink”, it looks more Beige to me.

Same Mistakes– Described as “Metallic mint”. A beautiful color.

I Would– Described as “Smokey brown shimmer”. This color is a very dark brown with fine gold glitter. Can be built up to almost black.

I would

Summer Love– Described as “Smokey purple haze”. It looks more like a navy blue on my skin.

Everything About You– Described as “Smokey black shimmer”. This is an interesting color. It looks black on pan but on my skin it gives a green hue….and looks more like a deep dark blackish-green. I am not complaining, I like the shade but I am curious to know if anyone else has faced this too.

EYE PENCIL:

I Want– Described as “True matte black”. Truth to be told, it’s not the best black eye pencil I have tried. It’s not smudge-proof and didn’t perform well on my waterline.

LIP GLOSS:

The glosses are not overly glossy, rather feels like a rich moisturizing lipstick. The colors look kinda prominent on pans but on my lips they gave a beautiful color.

Loved You First– Described as “Bubble gum pink”
One Thing– Described as “Frosted pink ice”
Irresistible– Described as “Shimmered pearl”
Heart Attack– Described as “Creamy rose shine”
