Oxford Street Eye Powders


There's just something magical about a powder in a glass bottle. I would imagine seeing something similar in Alice in Wonderland with the words "wear me", and when you see the beautiful shades, you'll believe me. With the Lush Oxford Street release, with over 200 new exclusive products, makeup was a fair percent of it. Along with the never before seen Eye Powders, there's: eye jewels, face powders, lipsticks, and re-designed items like the Eyes Right Mascara and the Emotional Brilliance Face Powder.

The Eye Powders caught my attention first. With over 18 different shades, all £10 each. A heavy price tag for a single shade but when compared to Mac products, doesn't seem as bad. There are two types of eye powders, with the second labelled as 'Earth' which feature about 5 or 6 colours. Along with colour, every bottle has a unique message to live up to the name of the  'Emotional Brilliance' makeup collection.

To use, dab a brush and tap any excess off before applying to the eyelid. For a creamier/bolder effect, wet the brush beforehand and apply. All of the shades are heavily pigmented, creating an already flawless colour which is easy to blend. In my experience, the colours last all day, even after being washed off the lustre remains. Each shade is versatile in their own way, with multiple uses. So since I can't review them all in a single page, I'll feature mini reviews of each shade I own.

They don't have a scent to them and they're very generous in size. So I estimate they would last longer than the compressed shadows. Plus they fit perfectly in the lipstick part of a makeup organiser.

Overall I can see my bank account crying as I attempt at collecting all the stunning shades. And since I switched to Lush makeup, it's encouraged me to me to use it more as my confidence increases.
