Left: Color Design (2) Palette & Right: Smoky Nude (1) Palette.
By Terry have just released their Wet & Dry Eye Designer Palettes and there currently two to choose from: Smoky Nude (1) and Color Design (2). I am unsure if these are permanent or limited edition, but I will let you know if I find out (or if you know - do share in a comment below :) ). Each palette contains ten eye shadows, has a mix of finishes and can be applied dry for softer, every day wear or using a damp brush for added colour intensity. This luxury brand is one of my favourites in beauty, so I was extremely excited! Though I must say that even though I've tried several of their other products, I have never purchased or tried any of their powder eye shadows. These are quite an investment and after much consideration, I decided to bite the bullet and purchased these sight unseen! :-o I don't usually do that, especially for such expensive items (and to buy TWO!), but I gave it a shot and I couldn't resist given how beautiful the colours appeared on the images. So far [knocks on wood], I haven't yet come across a By Terry product I have tried and didn't like (despite the price range), so I had high hopes. Anyway, I will post all of my thoughts and swatches on these palettes on the blog very soon! ;-)
I purchased the palettes a little over a couple of weeks ago when Space NK (UK) were having their Spring Colour Beauty Bag with purchase, so I quickly jumped at the chance. Unfortunately, these are now out of stock, but I thought I'd still share what the gift included anyway as they often do similar gift with purchases throughout the year and will give you an idea of how awesome and great value they are. So, if you were interested, you might want to keep your eyes peeled for future ones (or sign up for email notifications) so you don't miss out!
I wasn't as keen on the makeup bag itself (I'm not a fan of snake-skin print), but was impressed with the goodies inside and most of them I've not tried before:
// FULL SIZE Nude Cleansing Oil
// Deluxe sample of Sunday Riley’s Good Genes
// Aromatherapy Associate 'Perfect Partners' Bath & Shower Oil Set, which includes the Revive Morning and (my absolute fave) Deep Relax bath and shower oils.
// Eyeko Eye Patch
// Mini Becca Ever-Matte Poreless Priming Perfector
// Deluxe sample of Algenist Eye Balm.
// RéVive Even Skin Tone Cream
// Radical Skincare Age-Defying Exfoliating Pads
// Sample of Payot Special 5 Drying and Purifying Gel
Hope this was useful. :)
Are you a By Terry fan? Do these palettes take your fancy?
