| Blush, Face Powder and Single Eyeshadow |
The blush is a nice rosy pink colour, I swatched it by swirling my finger in the whole product however with a small blush brush you could concentrate the colours for a more peachy look, pink look, bronze look or rose look. The face powder is more like a highlighter, as it is very shimmery and you don't want to have a completely shiny face (unless that's the look you are going for). The matte single eyeshadow is very pigmented and easy to blend out. You could easily use this one colour for a matte gorgeous smokey eye!

| Eye Highlighter, Eye Brightener, Metallic Eyeshadow Stick and Brow Pencil |
The Eye Brightener is one of those cool multi use products, you can use the Highlighter on your brow bone and inner corner and the Brightener on the waterline, brow bone and inner corner. Both are very pigmented and do not crease. I would recommend you use it on your hand before you first use it, as it's very sharp and needs the end to be blunt so it doesn't scratch your eye. I love using the Metallic Eyeshadow stick as an all over eye base (just make sure you use a primer first to stop creasing) or as an inner corner highlight. The Eyebrow pencil is fantastic, I wasn't sure which shade to get (there are 3) so I went for the middle shade and the colour payoff is amazing, used with a light hand to fill in at the front of the brow and then a touch more pressure to create actual brow hairs, the spoolie to comb out the brows on the other end is excellent for dispersing the product through your brow.

| Foundation (top) and Concealer (bottom) |
For once a foundation that lives up to it's name, you have flawless skin that still actually looks like skin. I use a Beauty Blender (BB) to apply this and I only need 1 pump of product to give medium coverage, 1 pump usually gives me 1 layer of product and enough to add a touch more coverage where I need it. I would expect that with 2 pumps and 3 light layers of product it would give full coverage. There are plenty of shades of the foundation and they have a great colour matching system so it's pretty fool proof not to choose the right shade. I chose the Light Shade in the Concealer to use as a highlighter. It's a lovely creamy concealer that's not too thick or too thin. Blends out easily with fingers, a brush or BB.

| Rich Gems Eyeshadow Palette |
The Rich Gems Palette is very pretty with lots of lovely gem colours, all colours are shimmer or satin finish. When I purchase a palette, I usually like to have 2 or 3 matte colours and a dark brown or black. This palette has none of these, but it's still a lovely palette, you will notice from the swatches that lighter colours in the middle of the palette are not very pigmented and required a few swipes for any decent payoff. My favourite colours from the palette are the navy, copper, burgundy, purple and light cream.
As you can see I haven't opened up the Mascara yet, I'm currently using 4 different ones at the moment and as it's best to toss a mascara after 3 months, I'm waiting to use up the ones I have. I'll let you know what I think of it when I start using it.
So what products would I re-purchase? The Foundation and Eyebrow Pencil.
All products were purchased by me and all opinions are my own. Let me know if you would like to see a look using all of these products so you can see how they work together.......
