Bourjois Colour Edition 24 hour Cream-to-Powder Eyeshadows Review & Swatches


BOURJOIS COLOUR EDITION 24 HOUR CREAM TO POWDER EYESHADOWS IN:
03 PETALE DE GLACE
05 PRUNE NOCTURNE

Bourjois are one of my favourite highstreet brands - they do such good quality products at extremely low prices. Although I have been disappointed with some products (Healthy Mix I'm looking at you!!) these eyeshadows certainly do not disappoint.

03 Petale de Glace is the champagney peachy colour which is a perfect colour to sweep over the lid and then you're good to go. The shimmer is so pretty too, it just adds a bit of sparkle, which is definitely a must around Christmas and New Year. 

05 Prune Nocturne is the browny burgundy colour. The photos aren't capturing how pretty this colour is. It is much more red toned in real life, so if you can swatch it in store you must! The red tones are very subtle and actually look nice rather than looking like you've been punched in the eye ;)

These two shadows blend together seamlessly, they have been my go-to eyeshadow look for ages now. I like to put 03 Petale de Glace all over my lid and then 05 Prune Nocturne in my outer corner and crease. If you wanted to darken it and smoke it out, you can just add more of the darker colour and it makes a really nice quick night time appropriate eyeshadow look!

The formula is definitely better than the Maybelline Colour Tattoos. The formula is more cream to powder- which I prefer. And these feel lighter on the eye than  the Maybelline ones.

I definitely want some more of these - do you have any recommendations?

Thanks for reading,

Olivia

  5. Just wondering because I might get it, is the Bourjois version more expensive or more cheaper than the Maybelline version? Both look great!
