Hey everyone so I'm sorry I haven't written a blog post in soooo long I just haven't had the time to fit in filming editing working socialising and writing blogs into my week at all so I have a little bit of free time today so I thought I would pen a blog post for you all about the Front cover Top drawer eye pencil collection, which I purchased just after christmas it was on half price at Boots from £16.00 to £8.00 I have never tried any of their products before but I had been after a set of coloured eye pencils for a while and hadn't found anything that I liked that much so when I saw them I thought they were great colours and so I purchased it.
So here is what the set looks like
So as you can see it comes with 6 coloured pencils a black kohl liner and a dual sharpener the pencils vary in terms of cream mettalic shimmer and glitter. I also photographed some swatches on my arm so I will insert those down below aswell and then run through the colours and my impressions of them all.
From left to right colours Moccasin Pine needle Drifter Purple durple Chalk and Lemon
Moccasin is a very creamy bronze brown shimmery shade this is perfect for wearing during the day on the waterline or all over the lid it's a very neutral colour and super blendable.
Pine needle is a gorgeous turquoise blue colour I can see myself wearing this in spring summer to add a pop of colour to my eyes however it is not as creamy as the other colours so a little harder to blend.
Drifter is a lovely duck egg blue colour it's really blendable and creamy with a metallic finish another spring summer colour here.
Purple durple is a lovely deep matte purple colour perfect for wearing on a night out, again it's not as blendable and creamy as the other colours but looks great with a smokey eye.
Ice is a gorgeous creamy and super blendable pale silvery metallic colour this is by far my favourite pencil in the colection it's got a futuristic kind of feel to it and sure to get attention when worn I haven't seen a colour like this before as it's more than your standard silver I think this would look great worn all over the lid with a flick of liquid liner for a simple for attention grabbing look.
The last colour Lemon is a pale goldish lemon colour and has a lot of sparkle and glitter to it the payoff doesn't give you much colour but does add a lot of glitter to your eyes again really blendable and creamy a definate for anyone who loves having sparkly eyes.
The black kohl pencil however is not as great as the other pencils in the set when applied to the waterline it doesn't give you and intense black line to the eyes it's pretty pale and also a bit scratchy to apply I prefer my pencils to be soft and super black if I'm going for an eyeliner but that is jut personal preference if you prefer a more subtle black line when lining your eyes this would be a good pencil for you. Overall I give this set 4 out of 5 stars just because of the black pencil not being as good as I had hopes oh but on the plus side it does have a smudger on the other end which works really well.
So I hope you guys enjoyed the blog post It's really long I hope not to ramblly ttyl xoxo
