Avon True Colour FIRST IMPRESSIONS

OMG WHAAAAT first review of the lovely month of June! or you could call this a first impressions? pick your fancy and put it in your pocket! SO onto the actual producty stuff i brought this a couple of weeks ago from my avon rep but kinda forgot about it in the back of my bag (ooh naughty) and found it again a few days ago when i decided to clean the pit of doom. i have no idea how much this was, i imagine it was around £7-8 but im not too sure. 

I Brought the colour palette 'Healthy Glow' and when i first swatched the eyeshadows the white/cream colour came through with alot more gold flecks than i first imagined. i was not disappointed i just didn't really expect this, however it is a very pretty colour. The other colour is more of a baked brown with also flecks of gold as an undertone. 


when i first tried the shadows the white was alot more pigmented than the brown, however i feel if you used these colours together you could get a very light, natural smokey eye. the texture is soft and quite fluffy like my other avon eyeshadows, anything other than this is really not expected from avon as there quality is very good for the price you pay. 


As you can see from the swatches the colours are very beautiful but i feel you could get colours the same from many other brands and very different prices. however if your an avon junkie like me i would definitely purchase this item just as it could be a very good everyday staple. 

If you already own this or are planning on trying it make sure to tell me in the comments ;3 

Have a fantastic day! Dottie xox

BC Classic Eyeshadows Palette Review

Ah the world of eyeshadows! 
Today im going to be reviewing a palette i picked up from my local bargain shop,i had never heard of this brand but my impressions so far are GREAT :D yay cheap makeup! this palette cost me around £2.59 and has a total of 8 everyday eyeshadows ranging from matte browns to subtle blues :D

The consistency of these shadows are super creamy! i love them, there really easy to blend and im sure you could achieve a smokey eye look with some of the beautiful blues! iv been really getting my wear out of these shadows as they have made their selves home in my everyday makeup bag,woot :) 
im sorry about the crappy photo, my camera don't do these colors justice, considering the price, i think these eyeshadows are great for anyone who is looking for a range of eyeshadows they can use for starting out, as you get a mix of all the colors you could possibly want!
