Here are a few swatches. I don't have a brilliant camera so the colours aren't brilliant so I am sorry :(
Once I buy my camera I will upload pictures and videos of how my makeup looked when using this products.
So I will start with the MAC makeup -

From right to left.
Dazzle Me eye shadow - Stubborn Brown eye liner - Mulch eye shadow
I wrote a comment on this prior to trying the product. NEVER do that! I wasn't very happy with the swatch but when you do your makeup and use these to do eye makeup with its amazing! All three colours complement them self's. I would do my makeup around 8am and it would last ALL day long right up until I would go to bed. The mascara that came in this collection is possibly the best mascara I have ever purchased! It curls my eye lashes like nothing has eve before. I don't use a eye lash curler and with this mascara I don't think you'd need it, and if you did use it, it would look like you had eye lash extensions on. |

Bare Minerals makeup
Apricot lip gloss - Prime Time brightening eyelid primer - Round the clock waterproof eyeline 10pm - Zany eye shadow - Exquisite radiance blusher.
The best makeup I have purchased! The eyelid primer add a shimmer to the eye lid which lasts all day long and just softens the eyelids. The lip gloss isn't amazing but it's impossible to stay on whilst your eating or drinking but I love the brush of it, it's so soft. The best past about more expensive/better quality eyeliners is that they LAST, they don't smudge or create sleepy dust in your eye and it looks perfect all day long. Today I used the exquisite radiance blusher and the zany eye shadow on my eyes today and it looked so lovely. The shimmer and glitter pigment just opens the eye up and adds a nice touch to the eye. Overall I love them!

This collection was purchased from the MAC Cosmetics website at £36 with free P&P.
This came with a MAC 275SE angle eye shadow brush which is so soft and very high quality. As it's an angle brush it helps to create the perfect arch when doing your eyes. I also use this to blend colours if I used two for one look. |

This collection was purchase from the Debenhams website for £36 with free P&P.
This came with a precision eye and cheek brush which is so handy to use when doing eyes and a little bit of shadow falls to the cheek and I quickly change sides to brush away the excess. The best thing I love about it is that I can feel the quality of the brush with the softness. the cheek side is angled so when applying blusher it gives great balance. Once applied I used the kabuki brush from Virgin Vie Cosmetics to blend.
