Advantages: Wicked range of colours; The eyeshadow lasts good; Cheap

Disadvantages: none

I love these eyeshadows from Avon and am lucky because my cousin gave me the whole set of them when she gave Avon up and was left with a load of stock.

They're so brill because every eyeshadow has got 2 colours in it so I have got 14 different colours in 7 compacts. I don't need to own any more eyeshadows but they are my downfall so I don't think I'll ever stop buying them!

All of the different shades go on brill and they are quite sheer so you can build the colour up to the strength you want. All of the colours are trendy and up to date and out of the 14 colours there is only one that I don't wear and that is because it's a very funny green and it doesn't suit me well.

The powder goes on smooth with an eyeshadow brush but it doesn't apply as good when you use them little sponge applicators. It lasts quite good for a cheap eyeshadow and doesn't clog in the creases round my eyes and that's good because the eyeshadows only cost £2.00 and I've used some that were loads more expensive than that and have faded quicker.

The colours you can buy are:-

BLUE WAVE

This is a navy blue and a shade thats a bit darker than baby blue. The colours go wicked together and looks good with blue mascara for a bit of a retro look that looks good at the minute.

HOT CHOCOLATE

Beige and dark brown shades that suit loads of different skin tones. I use the beige as a highlighter and shade the dark brown above my top eye lashes and you can get a trendy smudged look real easy with this eyeshadow.

SWEET TEMPTATION

This is a plum and a lilac eyeshadow compact. They are going out colours I think because the plum is very dark for daytime make up. These 2 colours don't go right good together but do blend good with some of the other eyeshadows from this range.

POWDER ROOM PINK

This is 2 different pinks, one dark and a light one. They go brill together and look wicked in the summer when you want to keep your make up looking more natural. These pinks also go nice with the Hot Chocolate compact because brown and pink goes so well together.

SNOW STORM

I don't use these 2 as actual eyeshadows because the black one is too dark and the off white shade that comes with it is more of a highlighter than an eyeshadow. The black one is a good shader and sometimes I use it as an extra thick eyeliner and smudge it round my eyes.

RAIN FOREST

This one is a weird bottle green colour and that is the one I said earlier that I don't like because there is no depth to the colour and it looks strange on me. The other green is another dark one but it looks a bit nicer than the other one but I would say this compact is my least favourite out of all of them.

These eyeshadows are usually on special offer for £2.00 but the normal price is £4.25 and that is still good but I'd wait until they are on special offer because for £2.00 they are a proper bargain.

Summary: 7 Compacts = 14 Different Looks!
