Mistletoe Eyecolour (light lemongrass shimmer)
GREEN!! GREEN!! That was what I thought when I saw this collection, I hate green on eyes (well on my own eyes) BUT this colour is beautiful! The shimmer brings the colour to life. The only thing I found was this was when putting it on the eye, if brushed too much the colour faded slightly, but left a beauty shimmer.

The Gift Eyecolour (bronze copper shimmer)
This is the type of colour I would only go for in the past (of cheap brands) It's a colour your can wear and match with absolutely anything. I watched a youtube video the other day and the lady said it's always best to wear similar colours on the cheeks, eyes and lips, but I think this colour is one you blend with multi colours.

Present Eyecolour (melon sorbet matte)
For my skin tone if you can see in the swatch, this colour doesn't show up very well and I personally think it will wash me out when applied to my eyes. To use this I would pair with colour similar such as the Garland Eyecolor (champagne nude sheen) to bring the pinkness out slightly. I found that this was the only colour that was matte, and was slightly disappointing. 

Tinsel Eyecolour (sapphire twilight shimmer)
I was very excited when I saw this colour. I love dark colours on my eyes as well as glitter/shimmer, so this was every all wrapped up in one. It has a blue/
sapphire under tone to it, and when applied looks darker that what it shows in the pot. Its still brill and would make the PERFECT smoky eye.

Bauble Eyecolour (bright amethyst shimmer)
I wore this colour today on my eyes, and was slightly disappointing :( It doesn't have long wear to it, I applied it around 7:15am and it is now 17.39pm. It is still shimmering but the purple has faded. It could have been be rubbing my eyes or even not applying enough this morning, but with my Zany Bare Minerals eye shadow, that could last till morning if it had it's own way.



Garland Eyecolour (champagne nude sheen)
Just like the 
Present Eyecoluor I wouldn't wear this on it's own. I think it's great for highlighting the eyebrow shape and maybe adding colour to your lower eye line. If used correctly it can go over other eye shadow to add it's own little tint of shimmer.



This is such a cute little box! Presentation is 10/10!:)
