Collection Work The Colour Eyeshadow Pencils | Review & Swatches




Collection Work The Colour Eyeshadow Pencils in Vanilla Sky & Hot Chocolate: £2.50 each (normally £3.19) from Boots and Superdrug - 

Firstly I want to apologise for the lack of posts recently! It was my birthday two weeks ago, and then last week I was on holiday! But normal service will resume. Whilst on holiday I picked up these Collection Work The Colour pencils from Boots. They were £2.50 each, an absolute bargain. I've been testing them out ever since and I've got to say I'm really pleased! 

I don't normally go for cream eyeshadows, but these fared really well! They won't stick around all day, nothing does, but their lasting time was really impressive. They apply really creamy, but once they dry they do not budge. Seriously, I had the hardest time getting those swatches off my hand and on my eyes they needed a good wipe too. The colours are gorgeous too. Vanilla Sky is quite comparable to MAC's Bare Study Paint Pot, and Hot Chocolate is very similar to the MAC eyeshadow in Satin Taupe! I think there are 4 other colours available; a baby pink, charcoal grey, navy blue and a black.

The thing I like most about these are that they're easy. Just pop them on the lid, blend them out a bit and you're good to go! Hot Chocolate is perfect on its own and Vanilla Sky is lovely with a bit of brown shadow in the crease. I really like these and recommend trying them!
