This is a great easy to apply eye liner in a deep black colour, it's a neat roll out liner that's easy to use and lasts long. It's a bargain from Avon!

I've always been a fan of AVON products as the affordability for the high quality and innovation-filled catalogue made my pocket very happy.
The appearance of the palette itself is beautiful. It is classy and shiny - something to made the makeup bag feel proud to have.
At first glance, the shadows shades are inviting and vibrant, on application, however, it disappoints terribly.
It is almost impossible to achieve bright colour using brush strokes of a regular eyeshadow brush. I ended up using a dabbing motion on my lid with the little applicators that come inside the palette to achieve some semblance of colour. Once applied, DO NOT BLEND with a brush!! It will dull the colour and your eyelid will look like you applied only one shade.
I am a fan of bright shadows and vibrant colours which is why this eyeshadow disappoints. If you are the type to use muted or natural colours though, this would be perfect for you! It gives the eyelid a light wash of gentle colour without making you look clownish. I would not purchase this eyeshadow for myself but perhaps I would purchase it as a gift for an older woman.

Lol, you killed me with the older woman comment. I am gun shy when it comes to intense bright eyeshadow colours hence I was pleased with this palette and I had no blending issues either. You hit the nail on the head on it being perfect for ladies that prefer natural colours....

Being a working Mom and not really having much time for myself, I often do not use any make up unless I have to attend functions. When receiving the Avon Palette I was really excited! This product is easy to use and blends well together. This product stays on longer than previous with minimal smudging. As I like to make my eyes the main focus when applying makeup on, I was able to do so with just one sweep of Avon makeup.... The Metallic colors definitely made my eyes stand out and look amazing. I would recommend this product to many women out there! Thank you AVON fro giving me this opportunity. ?

Great product, the case is compact enough to carry even in a small clutch bag. I love the palette of colours. There's enough variety for every occasion (from work to the party scene). It is very user friendly.
Overall i am enjoying it.

When I first opened the box I have to admit that I was taken aback by the colour palette. I am not very bold with my everyday eyeshadow so I was not sure how I would incorporate it into my day-to-day activities.
Once I got to play around with the colours I realised just how much I enjoyed the colours. They compliment each other very well and I managed to accomplish some great looks!
What I loved:
* Great Colours
* Nifty little compactum with a handy mirror to see your eyes perfectly
* Colour applies very light so allows you to layer the colour to get it to as dark as you like - nice if you want to use the same colours for a day look
* Not powdery - the colours don't fall all over your eye area
What I was not so keen on:
* For me the colour didn't last all that long. Unless I blink more than the average person, I found that the colour faded quite a bit, especially in the creases
* The applicators are rather useless. They are not easy to use - I think one longer applicator may have worked better
All-in-all I quite liked this product and I will definitely use it!

I think it was a satisfactory product, personally I don't think it is an everyday palette. The colors are warm and attractive, will be suitable for evening wear. I did not enjoy the feel of the eyeshadow as it did not go on smoothly but rather patchy which made blending somewhat difficult. It is a product you will enjoy if you have plenty time to play around with but if you are a person with a busy lifestyle then it will be a product you will use occasionally.

Since becoming a mother I have limited time to apply any sort of makeup but this palette made things easy. A quick sweep of one, two or even three tones blend beautifully and doesn't look plastered and lasts all day. This is a great product for quick and easy application when you have limited time. And an even better product when you do have time to to play around. Thank beauty bulletin ;)

I just got my parcel today and i am super excited! I went to the post office in the evening and got my slip. It was a surprise when i got my envelope. When i opened it, what did i find, My Avon Eye pallete and a Glimmerstick as well as the avon make up booklet.
Its 11:49 pm now and i am beside myself with excitement and i just did a swatch of the pallete and i'm loving the feel of it.
TEXTURE AND COLOR
Let me first talk about the texture of the eyeshadow and the color. The texture is so good, and the colours are nice and deep. I just had to swipe once with my finger to apply on my wrist when doing a swatch and i didn't need to apply again because it was just enough.
I found that the gold, yellow and bronze are quite exciting for a day-look because they will blend in nicely with my skin color and tone.The blue, aqua are very good if you want a bold look. The other dark colors are great for a smokey and light ones for highlighting.
Its interesting because at the back of the box they give tips on how to apply the make up in a way that is modern and nice. I have played a bit with make up and im looking forward to giving you a review on how the make up looks and how long i wore it with/ without smudging.
Thank you so much Beauty Bulleting for this wonderful gift and im looking forward to giving my honest reviews.
So far the packaging looks amazing and the eyeshadows have a nice feel or texture and the colors have a good intensity. Will follow this up with pictures.
