What's included? 
Just the items themselves packaged in a yellow organiza bag. (Unsure if this is included with all orders or not.) 
You'll also receive this card..
I think it's great that a portion of the proceeds goes towards M.A. Center's Humanitarian Aid.

On to the review..

First I'll be reviewing the Creme Eyeshadows in White Satin, Fairy Wings, and Wisteria
Swatches
Left to right
White Satin, Fairy Wings, and Wisteria.

I like all three of the colors. They are sheer which I  personally don't mind because they're cream shadows, and most aren't super pigmented.

Described to have a vanilla scent on the website, but to me they smell like popsicle sticks. 

As for texture they're creamy, (a little oily) and quite thin.

Unfortunately, these creased on me no matter what I tried. Really disappointing as the colors are very pretty on.

Next I'll be reviewing the Powder Eye Colours
Swatches
Left to right
Moon Dust, Mystic Ice, Tanzi, and Morning Dew.

My two favorites are Moon Dust, and Mystic Ice.

Moon Dust is a beautiful light pink-y purple perfect for everyday. Mystic Ice is a phenomenal white shade with violet, blue, and green iridescence. Can you say gorgeous?

The texture does vary. Moon Dust & Tanzi go on the smoothest.

Unlike the Creme Eyeshadows these are not scented.

They have fairly good pigmentation, though as with most powder eyeshadows for more intense color just use more or use a primer.

Last I'll be reviewing the Botanical Lip Gloss
Swatch
This is the shade Love. It's a sheer light pink. It's very shimmery, possibly even a bit frosty, but I actually like the way it looks on. 

It smells AMAZING! Similar to cotton candy or candy floss for those of you in the UK, but with a hint of fruit.

I'm unsure if this is the only shade with this scent, the website states that they come in various scents & edible flavors.

They're made with 100% organic oils, natural coloring & flavors.

It feels great on the lips. It's moisturizing, light, and not at all sticky.

Overall, I'd recommend the Powder Eye Colours, and the Botanical Lip Glosses.  I plan to order some of their products  once I'm off project pan.

Products provided by PR. I wasn't paid, and would never accept payment for a review. I speak the truth. :)

  4. I also have the problem of creasing with most cream shadows and don't even have oily lids! Shame really! Powder eye colours look really good in the swatches. The lip gloss has a such a nice pretty pink shade :)

    Yes, neither do I! Actually I have quite dry eyelids. The Powder Eye Colours are great, and so is the gloss.

  10. The cream eyeshadows looks super disappointing but the powder ones look super gorgeous and pigmented! The lipgloss reminds me of those from Stila and Elf and the smell must be gorgeous!

    ...Because I sometimes accept payment for a review, you think I don't speak the truth?
