Sadly, my photographs really didn't do these shimmer cubes justice! I used all 4 colours on that look, and if you'd seen me in real life, you'd have seen them, I think I just didn't have the lighting quite right, still getting used to this new camera :)
Shimmer cubes
I really love these - it's like a palette with individually wrapped shadows (generous sizes at that!). Each shadow comes in it's own case, and each of them fit into a bigger case (how neat!). The pigmentation is good, but I would recommend using a primer (this is something I do every day anyway), and the staying power is really decent too. They're not too sparkly, not full of glitter, but a soft pretty shimmer. I didn't really get much fall out with these either, which was very refreshing! I have to say, these blend really nicely too. If you have a bit of an 'edge' when applying, they blend out beautifully.
Plum lip gloss
This has become a bit of a favourite of mine. I don't like balms that are too tinted, it's just not a good look for me, and this offers a very subtle colour. The swatch above was me applying it quite a lot on my hand so that the camera would pick up the colour, it's certainly more than I'd apply to my lips. The scent/taste is amazing, it's like plum meets cherry cola, YUMMY! It keeps my lips hydrated really well, and I'm a little bit in love with the pop-art style packaging, love it! I'd love to try it in lychee and toffee (nom!).
On a side note, when popping onto their site to get the links for the products, I've just seen they're doing a new Blueberry body butter and blueberry body scrub gelee! ERMERGHERD! I'm obsessed with blueberries, I NEED THIS!!!!
