I’ve been a fan of Collection Cosmetics for a long time. I love brands that produce great quality products without needing to break the bank. And Collection does this perfectly. They produce trend led, fashion-forward makeup at affordable prices and every Collection product I’ve tried so far, I’ve loved. Which is why I wanted to share you all what’s new from Collection.

With spring literally just around the corner, I wanted to try some products that could promise an illuminating glow and a fresh look. So here’s what I picked up:

Collection Eyes Uncovered palette nude rose (£2.99)

I’ve already got a few of the nude eyeshadow palettes from Collection and loved them. For £2.99 you really can’t get any better value for money and unlike other low-end makeup brands, Collection makeup does perform as well as higher end makeup brands. Their eyeshadows are incredibly pigmented with a super smooth texture that allows for easy blending. Unlike the other Eyes Uncovered palettes I own, this palette focuses heavily on gorgeous rose toned eyeshadows, which I love at the moment.

Collection Illuminating & Reviving Eye Primer (£4.99)

As someone who is unfortunately blessed with rather oily lids, I have to rely heavily on eye primers otherwise my eye makeup is not staying in place for longer than a few hours. Like most good eye primers out there, this provides the perfect base to prolong the wear of cream and powder eyeshadows, as well as preventing creasing and intensifying the colour pigment of your eyeshadow. But what makes this primer different to most of the other primers I’ve tried is that this can be used under the eye to refresh and revive the eye area for a more ‘awake’ look. How amazing is that?

Collection Reviving & Anti-Fatigue Illuminating Primer – Warm Apricot (£4.99)

As already mentioned, my skin can be rather oily, which means I also have to rely on a primer before applying my base makeup. And while I’ve tried a lot over the years, I’m yet to find one that gives me an illuminating glow as well as holding my makeup in place from day to night. Until now that is. This sheer, crème-liquid primes your skin before makeup with ultra-fine light-reflecting pearls for a soft, natural glow. And the warm apricot colour helps to balance my skin tone for a more even tone, while also minimising the amount of touch ups I need to do throughout the day.

Have you tried any of these products before? What’s your favourite Collection product?

    Great reviews 🙂 I have all the other Eyes Uncovered palettes and love them for everyday use, so I’m excited there’s another one to add to my collection (no pun intended)! I’ve got quite dry skin and I’m always reaching for radiance-boosting products, so I can’t wait to try that primer, too!

    I’ve been expecting Urban Decay to come out with a Naked Basics 3 in rose shades, so I’m really excited that a ‘dupe’ has come out before the ‘real thing’! I’ll definitely be swatching this when I’m next at a store. Xx

    I’ve yet to try any Collection product, but the eyeshadow palette looks amazing and I can’t believe it is only £2.99! Will definitely check it out when I’m at the drugstore next <3 Thank you for sharing these products! 🙂 xx
