The Body Shop’s 2011 Winter Trend LE collection has just hit stores and today I’m bringing you swatches of the range! Every year I look forward to TBS’s Christmas collection and this year might just be my favourite.
There are two palettes this year (like normal) which include three powder eye shadows, one cream eye shadow, a kohl pencil an an eyeshadow brush. TBS have never included a cream eye shadow in a palette before and so this is a fab addition as they are creamy and pigmented.
Golden Brown Palette Swatches– How beautiful is the golden, shimmering cream! It’s absolutely perfect for using as a base under the eye shadow or for using as a highlighter under the eye brow. The other shadows are lovely, really soft and easy to work with.
Silver Black Palette Swatches – Again, the cream steals the show here. The kohl eye liner is lovely and black and the other shadows work really well together to help create a sexy, smouldering, smokey eye this winter.
What I think – I absolutely love that with these palettes you have everything you need (apart from mascara) to create the most perfect smokey eye for the party season. The packaging of the palettes are a classic shiny black with a gold strip across the front, and an accompanying mirror inside the lid.
The palettes retail for £14 each which is pricey – I do generally think that TBS have really high prices for all of their products (like £8 for a single eyeshadow, really?!), I think £10 would be a better price point for this quad.
Also in the range are two shimmer mists (in the cutest spray pump packaging – pictured below), as well as four new mini hi-shine lip glosses (one pictured below)! 
The ‘Sparkler’s’ are incredible – I already had the pink one from last year but they’ve introduced a gold one as well this year and I adore them! The packaging is so cute and they give you the most dazzling shimmer – perfect for hair, legs, décolletage and clothing! They also have the nicest scent; they smell delicious and retail at £12.
Will you be wearing shimmer this Christmas? What palette do you prefer?
