This weeks Boots Star Gift: 1st November

Hey everyone, this week’s Boots star offer is Ted Baker: The Great and the Gorgeous Cosmetic Gift Set. This is a fabulous gift set with everything you need to create a gorgeous look, be it soft daytime beauty or full-on night-time glamour.

The kit contains two lip crayons in pink and plumb. These crayons have small enough tips to line the lip perfectly but are long and thick enough to cover lips in seconds. I would use the pink for daytime, as it’s light and simple but also adds a splash of colour to the face. I would use the plumb for a night out the deep colour gives your lips a look of plump sumptuousness. The kit contains four makeup brushes 1 a fine brush for eye shadow contouring, 2 an eye shadow applicator this will be great for applying the eye glitter 3 a slanted brush great for shading in the crease of  the eye and 4 the blending brush to blend out the eye shadow to avoid stark lines between colours. The eyeliner pen is fab, you simply draw on your line, if you’re not too confident do it lightly and go over again and again bit by bit until you get the perfect line.

The next item is the false eye lashes, Ted Baker have got these just right. They are soft enough to be worn for work but long and thick enough to be noticed at night for an evening out. They are very lightweight so you forget you’re wearing them! The eye cream is in a cream colour! It is very pigmented and sticks to the eye even without a primer. Alone it is shimmery and neutral but combine it with the light pink eye shadow glitter and you’re ready to shine on the dance floor. Then we have the bronzing  compact, these gold brown tones give great colour to contour the fact or a warm glow to the cheeks.

We have two nail varnishes pale pink or sparkling gold. You can wear either off these separately for day or night but why not combine them for a fantastic nail art fusion. Last but not least we have the illuminating liquid in pearly pink and warm gold. These can be used to highlight the eyes or face.

  This fabulous gift set: The Great and the Gorgeous  by Ted Baker is usually £40 but from today until Thursday 7^th November you can pick this up for only £19 !!! THAT’S A SAVING OF £21!! If this is perfect for you or a great gift for a friend or relative get yourself down to a large Boots store or order at boots.com.

Take care x
