Advantages: Nice colours

Disadvantages: Rubbish brushes, price

This is potentially a great little kit. Firstly the packaging is great - it's a very sturdy little box which is great for carrying around in your bag and it has a nice big mirror in the lid. Contained within is the boi-ing concealer in the medium shade (number 2). I'm not a big fan of the boi-ing concealer and I much prefer Benefit's erase paste but it's handy to have in case I don't have that with me.

There are 3 eyeshadows inside; a light shimmery pink, a light golden brown and a deep cocoa brown. The leaflet included with the kit shows how to apply the shadows.

The major problem with this kit (aside from the over-inflated price) is the brushes that are included. They are awful. They are really hard to use and they cake on the eyeshadow making it look harsh and unblended.The concealer brush just left streaks of concealer under my eye which I had to then blend with my finger anyway. But if you use a good brush the colours are really nice and look great, particularly on brunettes or those with brown eyes.

Summary: Too pricey for what it is
