Until the 18th of May Revlon have a Gift With Purchase with any spend over $39.95.
Although I don't need any more foundations, I have been super interested in trying out the new formula and packaging for my HG Colorstay, and I never really can say no to a good GWP ;)
I chose the 'Pop' look, that looks a little something like this.
To qualify I picked up the new foundation in a more winter friendly shade (my foundations are a tad too dark for me at the moment) and the Nail Art pen Moon Candy in Orbit. These polish and glitter duos have been sold around the world for a while now, but were only brand spankin' new to my Revlon counter. A super deep dark purple, that applies darker than it looks in the tube. Goes on smoothly with great coverage in one coat. (although I opted for two) The glitter on the other hand did disappoint me at me first. it took maybe three or four coats to get the amount of glitter you can see in the picture below. The glitter is big jagged holographic 'chunks', that sometimes don't sit flush with the nail. I put a super thick gel top coat on, and still found myself with bumpy nails. Some of the glitter would get stuck on clothes and what not and rip out. It IS a beautiful polish, and after all the fiddling I adore the finish and will get a lot of use out of this. The flecks of deep blue, turquoise and green are amazing and the photo just doesn't do it justice.
This was after three days wear, so you can see a bit of wear around the tips.
I haven't had much of a chance to play with the goodies in the pack, but it came in a super cute little make up bag. These things are always too small for me, but I do like putting my make-up for touch ups in them and then in my handbag so I don't have things getting lost in my bag.
Colorburst Lip Butter in #025 Peach Parfait, Photoready Sculpting Blush Palette in #001 Pink Rose, Nail Enamel in #141 Angelic, Photoready Primer + Shadow in #501 Metropolitan and Colorstay creme gel eyeliner in #001 Black Nior.
The shadows seem super pigmented and I really can't wait to play around with these
The blush palette on the other hand isn't as strong, but does have a really nice sheen to it that should look lovely. The highlight looks great. The sales assistant who helped me out was phenomenal and said that she prefers to swirl her brush over the whole palette and apply it that way.
As a part of the Promo, I also received an appointment card to come back and have a 'lesson' of sorts to tech me how to use the products, or try out a new look. I think I'll pass it on to my mum (The SA was more than happy to note it down) and give her a little make-over.
Really impressed with the goodie bag, if you can you should totally go check it out!
