BeautyUK Eye Pencils Review, Swatches, EOTD

I had mentioned about the new BeautyUK eye pencils range launch HERE


BeautyUK Simply Define Eyebrow pencil

What the Company claims: This year it’s all about the brows and these puppies are just what the doctor ordered. Perfectly weighted with a wooden body and defining brow brush, these richly pigmented pencils are the ideal artistic tools to create your defining eye look.

Available in grey, dark brown, auburn and ash brown – all at £1.99


I have the dark brown one which is perfect for our brows..it comes with a lash comb on the cap..I think its very good for travel..and when you do not have the time to carry your brow powder, wax, etc…this would ease your job..stiff enough for eyebrows..convenient to use and carry along..and cost effective too..


 Long lasting twist eyeliner


What the Company claims: Featuring an integrated sharpener to keep things perfectly precise at all times, these long lasting, intensely pigmented pencils give full control and ultimate definition that won’t fade when you need it most.

Available in black, dark brown, grey, navy blue – all at £2.49

Its a twist up pencil with a sharpener on one end..I have the one in dark brown..its a reddish deep brown..it glides well, does not tug or pull and the color is pigmented too..but staying power again is average..


Jumbo double ended pencil

What the Company claims: A revelation in style and convenience – these dual use pencils give black eye liner precision on one end with a sumptuous smoothie of creamy, metallic eye shadow on the other. Ideal companions to take anywhere and create a seductive pop of colour to the eyes. These work perfectly as a base for building eye shadow to create your desired look.

Available in black/white, black/ grey, black/ beige, black/ turquoise – all at £2.99



I have the black/beige..the eyshadow is super creamy..its a coppery pink beige..and the eyeliner is thin tipped and rich jet black..both glide on super easily and are easy to use..make a good two minute eyeshadow..the only issue is the eyeshadow hardly stays..especially in hot humid weather..it just vanishes away..and the eyeliner also does not stay long on the waterline..though longer on the upper lashline..



I have used all three for an EOTD

Overall I would say these are good for daily use..and quite economical and travel friendly..I only wish they stayed longer..I am not impressed by their staying power..

beautyuk – paint for life week

Breast cancer affects people we all know and love so in the tradition of Race for Life we’re calling for all the ladies of the world to show your support and paint your nails pink for Paint for Life Week October 1st – 7th.

Inspired from a competition we ran across our social media sites to design and name a nail polish shade, the partnership was formed when one of our followers told us her story about her mother’s fight with breast cancer. Her idea was to create a pink polish and give it a powerful name related to the fight against cancer.

Our team then worked with her to develop a unique box set consisting of three shades of pink nail polish and entitled it the ‘paint for life trio’.

Each bottle is individually named with ‘hope’, ‘strength’ and ‘love’ – some of the key emotions in the fight against cancer.

From every £5.99 set sold, £1 will be donated directly to breast cancer research.

HOW TO ENTER

For the chance to win the MASSIVE £250 BEAUTYUK HAUL simply paint your nails pink, strike a pose, upload a photo anytime before 11.59pm on the 7th October and tell your friends to vote for your photo on this page between the 8th and 12th October.

STOP THE PRESS! EVEN MORE PRIZES!! To ensure everyone is in with a chance of winning a prize, the team at beautyuk are going to choose their favourite 5 photos to win some fab additional prizes.

On top of that we will also feature our 10 favourite images on our website and Facebook page.

What the Company claims: Everything you could want in a palette! A collection of our 6 intensely pigmented shades and 2 gel-based liners – More precise than a pencil, more forgiving than a liquid, this super-smooth formula offers more control, play time, and buildable coverage than your average liner.

Price: £3.99 inc. VAT (Around Rs. 310/-)

Shades Available:

Ingredients:

I have reviewed the Eye Shadow and Eye Liner Palette in No. 2 Amazon here. You can read the whole review there. Disco has pop of bright colors, Amazon is brown based..and Smoke Screen is a blend of blues and blacks..perfect for smokey eyes..

If you love smokey eyes..you should definitely check out Smoke Screen.

This eye shadow and eye liner collection palette consists of 6 eye shadows of 1g each..about a size of our new 5 rupee coin and 2 gel or cream liners of 1.5g each. It has a small dual sided brush..one side is a angled liner for the cream liners and the other side is a small fluffy crease brush..well its actually very tiny..but the angled liner brush is quite nice ! And also a stretched mirror below the brush. I love these palettes for being so travel friendly and compact.

The shadows are decently pigmented..some are more..and some are a little less..but none are powdery or chalky..all have a metallic finish and are shimmery..but not glittery…if you are a fan of mattes..this is not for you..the staying power is a good 6-7 hours even without a base.

The gel liners are decently pigmented too..the black is darker and glossier than the one in the Amazon Palette and the blue is nicely pigmented too..these cream liners are water proof and stay around 6-7 hours on the lids.

Top Row has metallic grey with blue shimmer, metallic ash gray and shimmery white

Bottom Row has metallic denim blue, bluish gray with blue shimmer and metallic black with some silver shimmer

Cream liners are matte deep navy blue and matte glossy black

Check out the whole review here

Overall I quite love this palette..it is super handy..and you get all the smokey shades with gel liners and a brush in one palette..and at this price..definitely a steal ! Must have..

You can buy it here. Its a perfect gift too ! Surely recommended.

P.S: Product sent by brand for review but it has not affected my opinion.
