This is a great collection that is packed with some amazing waterproof essential products that you will enjoy using this summer. I was most excited to see the Amazonian clay waterproof eyeliner in Fig. It has a smudger on the end of the pencil and also comes with a sharpener. It reminds me of the Sue Devitt Eye Intensifier Pencils, which I also happen to love. FIG is a brownie-plum shade and as you can see in the photo it is really a gorgeous color.
The Lipsurgence pencil in Sweet is a golden pinky-peach that has a minty flavor to it. How sweet!
Also in this collection is the Park Ave Princess bronzer. I've reviewed tarte's bronzers before so check out my reviews HERE.
Shimmering Taupe is a waterproof cream eyeshadow that looks great on it's own or paired with other shadows.
Peaceful is a beautiful shade of soft pinky-peach that shows up quite well on my skin. This is an exclusive shade to QVC.
Blush and Eyeshadow Bamboo Brushes are exclusive to QVC. I used the blush brush to apply the blush in Sweet. The synthetic hairs are soft and I love the bamboo handles. I used the eyeshadow brush to apply the Shimmering Taupe cream shadow and was surprised at how evenly it applied.
Lights, Camera, Lashes mascara was okay. I think mine was a bit dried out because I have used this particular one before and really liked it. It made my lashes look long and full without any clumps.
The concealers, I tried both the light and medium. The light was way to light and the medium was not bad but still not a perfect match for my skin tone. I probably would need to try the tan shade. It is a thick creamy concealer that does give great coverage.
You can purchase this collection at QVC for $49.92. (Please note you do not get the Park Ave Princess bronzer or the Maracuja Oil in the set being sold on QVC)
If you want to get it at this special value price you must hurry. This is QVC's one day only value-price and it will be good until July 1st @11:59 PM EST. The price after that will be $59.93, so hurry if you are interested. They also offer Easy Pay 3 installments $16.64 + tax and shipping/handling.
