I'm actually quite surprised that there isn't more being made of this set out in the 'bloggosphere', when I looked there actually weren't any reviews, but it's a really amazing set with some great shades and at a bit of a bargain price, I've worked out the savings below if you want to check them out. The sticks themselves are soft and creamy and sweep onto the eye lid with ease, are highly pigmented and really blendable, every makeup wearers dream. The set has 6 shades, all of which are very wearable and very long lasting.
There was only one colour in the set that I didn't think I would wear very often and I thought I could give this away as a gift to someone, as it happens, that shade was Amethyst and has turned out to be my favourite shade of all of them, a really lovely taupe/bronze/purple hybrid of a colour. I tend to have quite oily eyelids and find that most eye shadows tend to crease or shift after around 4 or 5 hours, I put these on at 8am and it hasn't moved by 7pm when I come to take my make up off, they really are great and so easy to use, I sweep across my eye lid and then blend with a blending brush or a big fluffy eye brush and that's it, done, great if you're in a rush or are a no fuss make up kinda gal!
This was a real impulse purchase one night after one too many glasses of wine, I actually had a Bobbi Brown eye shadow stick on my wish list but saw this little set and thought for the money that it was too good to turn down, 6 eye shadow sticks for £55, when they normally retail individually at £20.50 means that the set if bought individually would have cost £123 pounds so I saved £68 and makes each stick £9.15.
You can get the set here for £55.
What do you think?

P.S Sorry for the rubbish pictures, I had lots of pictures of the box and packaging but I don't have my memory card on me to add them in.
