LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!
First off, I absolutely love the holiday packaging for this collection so anything inside is just a bonus. But then I opened it and angels sang! The color is stunning! I bought it on a whim and fell in love with it the first time I put it on. It looks good by itself, in the center of other lip colors or used as part of an ombré look with Jeffree's nude mini's. I hope this becomes part of the permanent collection.
One of my favorite quads!
I use this quad for a quick daytime look. Any of the top 2 shades or bottom right shade look fantastic on their own from lid to crease with black liner and mascara for a quick eye look that lasts all day. Any of the 3 shades make blue eyes pop and the shadows do not crease and their is no fallout. For evening, I put a dark brown or black in my crease and I am ready to go.
Love This, Very Versatile!
I got this palette right after it came out and it became my go to palette over the holiday season. I have the original "all in one" palette from Charlotte Tilbury but never got much use from it because it was too natural looking. This palette completely changed everything! The beauty of this particular palette is it's versatility. The black color can be used for an eye liner wet or dry or used for a smokey eye look. It can also be used to deepen your crease. The bronzer can be used as shadow, etc... and the bar of gold is a beautiful sheer highlighter or eyeshadow. Play and have fun! You will love it!
Worth Every Penny!
I ordered this palette the day it was available on Beautylish and wanted to use all the shades before I posted a review. In a word this palette is, endless. I have been able to create endless looks with the shadows from the palette and even more by adding colors from one of the small 6 pan Viseart theory palettes when I wanted a bit of shimmer (desired but not necessary). The design of the palette is also genius. I am easily able to pop out a few colors and put them in a magnetic palette if I am going away for the weekend in
Must Have
This spoon is a must have for scooping liquid and/or cream products out of jars and measuring liquids from droppers. It is more sanitary than fingers and more importantly it can be used to measure how much product you need. I use it to measure my Buffet by The Ordinary since a dropper full varies in size considerably. But 2 spoonfuls of Buffet are the perfect amount and I don't waste any product.
Neck Lift In A Bottle
I bought this a few months ago and forgot I had it because it was stuffed in the back of my drawer. I came across it while reorganizing my skin care products and started using it last Thursday. By Saturday morning my neck looked noticeably tighter and on Monday morning a friend asked me what was different about my face. I just smiled. I was hesitant to use it on my lower face because I tend to break out in that area but I gave it a try last night. No difference in that area yet but it has only been one day but more importantly no breakouts! I lost a lot of weight due to illness in my late 40's and the skin in my neck and jowl area looked really bad and I was very self conscious about it. I don't feel self conscious about my neck anymore. I honestly didn't think a product could do that. The jury is still out on my "lower face" due to the length of time I have been using the product. One last word, please get the silver spoon if it's available. One heaping spoonful is the perfect amount for your neck (and massage in really well in an upward motion) and another spoonful for your jowls (let's call them what they are people).
The Ultimate Pampering Set!
This set is wonderful! The products smell amazing and your skin emerges from the mask concoction of your choice baby soft and radiant. Blue Cocoon is the perfect silky hydrating moisturizer that smells faintly like chocolate and melts into the skin following the mask. I am taking one star off because the brush is not good and impossible to clean. I got 2 uses out of the darn thing.
Not a good buy
I got this brush as part of The Awake Collection which includes the brush, The Honey Mud, Blue Cocoon, and Problem Solver. Thankfully I did not purchase separately because this brush is poor quality. I got 2 uses out of it and it is now hard as a rock and cannot be cleaned and loosened up no matter what I use to wash it. Thankfully the products are fantastic!
Worth Every Penny
I wanted to buy the Problem Solver because I had heard great things about it from a friend and my skin needed a bit of focused attention. Luckily, the Problem Solver was only available as part of this collection at the time I "needed" it. I have no patience and did not want to wait so I splurged on this set and I am so happy I did! While the Problem Solver is amazing on it's own, I mix it with the Honey mud and a bit of water a few times a week for a decadent treat that leaves my face bright and poreless looking. And I follow it with the magical Blue Cocoon which not only smells like heaven but glides onto my skin and hydrates better then any other moisturizer I have ever used. It is heaven in a black jar.
Magic in a bottle!!!
This was recommended to me by the Beautylish beauty advisor, Katja and I am so glad I took her advice! It is the perfect all over face brightener and four drops are all I need to cover my entire face before applying my moisturizer and sunscreen. After using for only a few days a friend asked me today if I was wearing new foundation (no), had new blush (no) or what was different about my face because it looked smoother. Thank you Buffet! For anyone that is having problems with products pilling when you put them on top of Buffet, you really do need only a few drops (less is more) on a clean dry face and let it soak it in for up to 20 minutes if possible before applying other products. That is not in the literature but Beautylish mentioned it so I switched my routine around so I have more time for it to penetrate.
