Hello beauty babes. This post is a little overdue as I was wanting to get it posted around the time that I bought it, but better late than never they say. I can imagine that any of you beauty lovers who have been into any Boots stores around the last two months will have noticed in store cosmetic box sets from a company called 'Front Cover' as part of the Christmas present offer.
Well when the sales hit all the stores, all the Christmas stuff in Boots was an half price (amazing), so I treated myself to the Front Cover Moon Dust Box for a bargain £8.00. The kit contains six iridescent pigments, two holographic glitters, a shadow base and blending brush.When doing my Christmas shopping I was constantly eyeing this product up, but couldn't quite justify to buy it as I had so much to get for everyone else. I was super pleased to be able to pick this up in the sales and it works out to be a £1 for each pot of shadow you get.
I've tried and tested a few of the pigments from this kit, and I can honestly say it has not disappointed me so far. Applying the shadow stick as a base had ensured that the pigments are long lasting with a lot of impact. The box contains mini tutorials for you to do and can give anyone a little inspiration on how to create different looks, making it ideal for anyone who is getting into makeup or those like me who want to play around with different looks.
These are a great little beauty's to have in your makeup collection and they build up or blend lovely. I could go into detail about each pigment in the box but instead have taken some pictures for you all as you will be able to see the punch these little pots pack.

I have to say that the holographic glitters get me a tad excited especially Periwinkle as they look so pretty and everyone needs a touch of sparkle when they are going on a night out or party. The only shade that I was unsure about and to be honest find quite daunting is the Lime Lime. As its name states is a bright lime green colour, I really don't know when I would use this. There maybe a day in the future where I will need this colour in my life, who knows.
Sadly I think that Boots have all sold out of this product on there site for those of you wanting to get your hands on this, but Front Cover do have a web page where you can purchase it at full price still if you click here. Its at £16 but I still think that this is a steal for what you are getting and worth every pound.
If any of you have this, have you tried the Lime Lime colour yet? Or have any of you tried anything else from Front Cover?. Would love to know your thoughts girlies
What a good thing to buy yourself! I love the Periwinkle..it's so glittery!
ReplyDeleteI have one Frontcover set that I got for Christmas two years ago, which contained two eye shadow palettes and some brushes. The brushes are absolutely amazing, they're almost MAC quality for a fraction of the price (and the shadows aren't too shabby either!) I now get excited every time Frontcover bring out a new product, such a shame it's all limited edition!

Fantastic buy hun.
ReplyDeleteThey are really pretty colours.
You could possibly use lime lime as a fun summer colour? Even as a liner along the top and bottom of the eyes. It would give a fantastic pop of colour for the warmer months
:o)

@beautysmarties: Thanks hun, Periwinkle is one of my faves to x
ReplyDelete@chrissy: Thats good, this is the first from Front Cover that i've tried and its lovely. It is a shame they should bring out there own permanent range x
@Kristin: thanks hun, great idea for the lime lime will have to experiment with it. It just looks a bit daunting haha x
