Available in six variations, Max Factor‘s new Smoky Eye Effect Eyeshadow aims to make the trendy smoky-eye look easier to create. The cream-stick formula allows blending with fingers and without the use of brushes.
Each variation contains two shades. The lighter shade has a rounded edge and the darker shade is more tapered. The shade I am featuring here, Onyx Smoke, features a silvery white and a black. The silvery white has a pearly finish and the black has some sparse shimmer. I like the fact that the silvery white is not overly pigment-rich or too frosty. The black, when blended, is more grey than black.

Most of my favorite beauty brands (especially when it comes to makeup) are designer brands. Beauty lines from Chanel, Dior, YSL, Anna Sui, Jill Stuart and Paul & Joe are beautiful extensions of their respective fashion brands as well as credible makeup/skincare lines in their own right.
On July 12th, Burberry Beauty was launched in the UK, and it is currently available exclusively in Harrods. Even though I am not a Burberry person, the look of the products did catch my attention. A fashion brand’s beauty line can help convey the image of the brand to a wider audience, through the colors and packaging (among other things), and, after seeing the products in person, I think Burberry has done well in both aspects.
