Well, I am shocked to say that though I am glad I bought the products men did not swoon at my feet though a neighbor's dog gave me a sideways glance.

The eyeshadow is highly pigmented and creamy in a good way. I really like the gold color as its that hello-I'm-gold-but-I-got-some-olive-green-and-taupe-thrown-in and is a great smokey eye for me. Both eyeshadows are metallic.

The blush is wonderful. Though i still have to experiment a little cause alone it's too dark for me. I've found that putting a pale shimmery blush on top makes it perfect.

So there you have it.  No movie role. Again.

Hmmm....sounds as if you love the products but will have to try more shades in them.  Of course, that will require another order, unless you return something.  Are you going to keep it all?

Good for you!  And will you try more of this line in the future?

I may try another blush. Maybe.

If anyone needs another Sunday Riley lemming (ha ha) check out this review for the Soft Focus Finishing Powder on Fab Over Forty:

http://www.faboverforty.com/makeup-over-forty/sunday-riley-soft-focus-finishing-powder/

It sounds fabulous, and comes in both warm and cool shades, three of each.

I got my order today and everything seems just gorgeous. I now have a total of 6 eyeshadows and 2 blushes. I'm hoping to get a few more. The lipgloss I have is so sheer that it was my one mistake. It's gorgeous in the tube but barely shows up on lips.
