Advantages: easy to follow lesson

Disadvantages: boi-ing to dark, brushes to small

big beautiful eyes is described as an eye contour kit, costing £17.50 is one of the middle priced Benefit products.

The kits with a number of things inside it, a well illustrated booklet giving advice on how to apply all the make up in the kit. Boi-ing in a medium shade (too dark for me unfortunately) to cover up any under eye darkness, and a concealer brush to apply it with. A lovely pink base shadow, which is applied all over the lid and has the slightes sheen to it, this comes with a (small) wide brush for application. And two darker shadows (in cocoa shimmer and the darker rich chocolate) to define to contours and line the eyes.

The make up stays on very well and doesn't crease in the eyes, the liner is a bit tricky to apply evenly but with practice it gets better, The main problem is the brushes are so small,, get that everything fits nicely in the box so it can be popped in you bag but bad for trying to hold and finely apply make up. the concealer brush is very nice (but still way too small) and they are clearly marked for the first time you use it.

Summary: great for presents
