I was invited to the Front Cover's Blog Launch a few weeks ago but was unable to attend. I really don't have the confidence to sit in a room full of people I don't know anyway, which sucks as it would be really cool to get to know some new people... ~billy no mates here~.
Front Cover Cosmetics is a new brand of cosmetics being stocked in Boots. They produce "sets" of items for different looks. I think their pricing is pricey, around £20 on average for a set but for the amount of stuff you get inside, I do think it's worth it! I chose to feature the 'Airkiss' set as I'm a lipstick junkie (as you probably already know) and was really excited to try out a new brand!
The Airkiss set features 20 different lipsticks with different finishes and a wide range of different shades. It also comes with a retractable lip brush which is not something I would tend to use but I guess it's always handy to have one! Finally it comes with a lip pencil in a medium-nude shade. The lipsticks themselves are quite small, about half the length & width of your average lipstick size. I think they're generous sizes though as there's some shades in there I wouldn't see myself wearing, so it would be pretty pointless having a full size product! I love the little set of instructions and 'tips' on the left side of the box. I read them when I opened it and thought they were great for a beginner who's just starting out wearing lipstick. I tend to mix lipsticks together anyway so their tips were irrelevant but my Mum learnt some tips!
I can't remember what shades I swatched but they're all from the two bottom rows. I will never use the nude shades so they were pretty pointless to swatch, plus they wouldn't come out right on the camera!
I would really recommend this set (RRP £20) if you're a lipstick junkie like myself, but maybe more so if you wear nude shades aswell as bolder ones.

Have you tried any of their sets yet? Did you go to the blog launch?
Hope everybody's having a fab Tuesday!
I first got Frontcover products a year ago from Boots. I actually love them and am coming to steal your lipsticks. (:
ReplyDeleteYes that was the top :)! I'm just glad it worked haha, I hate returning stuff there! they are so intimidating at times :) The skirt is meant to be a dress, I have no idea how because it is ridiculously short :| xoxo
ReplyDeleteI'd probably be tempted by a set like this, just so I could test all the shades and see which ones suit me and which don't. All in an attempt to save myself from buying ones that don't in the future! x
ReplyDeleteHi Elise :)
ReplyDeleteYeah it's a really great concept!
