Review & Giveaway: Benefit big Beautiful Eyes Contour Kit

This is a complete eye contouring and concealing kit for all eye colors. It comes with Boi-ing Concealer (one shade suits most), alabaster pink eyeshadow (a soft pink shimmer shade for highlighting or applying as a base), a cocoa shimmer eyeshadow (a soft brown shimmer for contouring), and a rich chocolate matte eyeshadow (a deep brown for lining and defining), plus a concealer brush and a double-ended contour and liner brush, plus detailed, step-by-step application instructions which can be useful for beginners in makeup.

The Boi-ing Concealer can double as eye lid primer: it’ supposed to be a shade of concealer that suits most skin tones but if by chance it doesn’t match your skin tone you can still get use out of it by using it as eyeshadow primer. The two shimmery/frosty eyeshadows (alabaster pink and cocoa shimmer) are very pigmented and velvety textured. It easily glides on the skin and gives off pretty shimmery sheens. The rich chocolate brown shadow is matte finish but also velvety textured and well pigmented. This color can be used to deepen the eye lid creases and as eye liner or even as eye brow shadow. The brushes in this kit are small but very useful and good quality.

Overall this little kit can give you a complete eye look (or two depending how creative you can be); all you need is a mascara and you are set to create a day time neutral look or night time dramatic look.
