The pump version of these blushes are not the most friendly - the pump dispenses a lot of product and although it's a cream blush the product itself applies quite dry and can be very hard to blend! The shelf life is not great - after about a year I noticed some of my blushes had separated in the container and could not be shaken back together. I much prefer the new compact formula!

When MUFE relaunched their HD blushes in a compact style I was a bit hesitant but I'm glad I tried them out! The new generation of cream blushes has a slightly longer dry time than the previous pump version and the compact makes it much easier to determine what amount you need to apply the perfect flush! #510 is a plum purple and I apply it with my fingers to give a natural flush. I tend to apply before I apply foundation and then use a powder on top, because these blushes are PIGMENTED and dry down fast! Wear time was longer than 6 hours for me.

Charlotte Tilbury recently launched on Beautylish and these pencils are amazing! They have complex, duo-chrome finishes, and are very long lasting. They are, however, quite expensive for eyeshadow pencils at around 30$ each and the range is quite small - only 7 different colours. They are also traditionally sharpened which can lead to a lot of wasted product if you need the pencil to have a fine point! But the colours are complex and I do love them, so if you get a chance to splurge, they are definitely worth taking a chance on! I just hope they convert to an automatic format in the future!

I absolutely love these eyeshadows. They are very similar to the Armani Eyes to Kill but with less complex finishes at a lower price point. The quality can be inconsistent within the line, but for the most part they are metallic, long-lasting and apply well. Make sure to keep the stopper to keep the powder pressed within the pot! There can be a bit of all out on application but they apply well with both fingers and brushes. I have had mine for several years and have not had any issues with them drying out.

Pro's: No need for a spare sharpener, easy to apply straight from tube, blend with fingertips, extremely waterproof, good in humidity, wore for > 8 hrs with no creasing
Cons: Hard to get if you don't have access to a Sephora (but they ship online, so it isn't too bad), high price per pencil, limited colour range, not meant for fine lining, tip is hard to keep pointy (this doesn't impact me, but others might want to attempt finer lines with it)
Overall: Good addition to a collection. If you only wear a wash of colour across your lids, OR you are in a rush these are swipe-and-go so very ideal!
