Collection 2000, collection

 



As you can see, i kind of adore this brand haha! They recently changed their name to 'Collection' but i will keep saying 'Collection 2000' to avoid confusion. Most of the products i have still say 'Collection 2000' soooo ya know haha. Anyhoo i have a wide range of different products from this brand and i've tried all sorts over the time. They retail from about £1.99 to no more than £10.00 infact i don't even think any product goes that high, but i'll play it safe at stick with a tenner. They have a lovely set of products which vary from lipsticks, eyeshadows to foundations, they even recently brought out some fake eyelashes which i'm keen to try out. So as my Collection 2000 collection grows i thought i'd share with you the things i have upto yet. Read below to find out what i like and what i don't like so much, and if they have anything for you :)

Eyeshadow-



From left to right- Spellbound, heavenly, fairy dust, magical, tinkerbell, sugarplum, jaffa, (i've forgotten this one), illusion and inky.
These pigments are great! I first bought one probably about 5 years ago, and i've loved them ever since. I don't have them all & i'm not actually sure how many others there are. There are only a couple what i wear and the others are for fancy dress or make-up artistry :) They are soft, VERY pigmented, shimmery although one or two are matte, the blue and pink i think, have great stain power and are super cheap round about £1.99. I just looked on the website and they aren't on there but they are still in the shops, so i'm guessing they may becoming discontinued :( but we'll see. Poundland sell them so they will have tons in there if they do discontinue them. A great tip on using these aswel is to use them wet! Or use a some fix fluid i.e Mac. It makes the colour alot stronger. But they work really well with a base underneath, they're easier to blend this way aswel. I really reccomend these for fancy dress aswel, so hurry up and get them before they go!

Nail Varnishes-




 

From left to right (or up to down haha)- Hip Hop, Dynasty, Sherbert Lemons, Spangles and i don't actually know the name of the old one, it's sort of rubbed off, and it's probablt discontinued unless they kept it but in the newer packaging.
 
I do appologise, but i have no idea why the picture is on the side haha, its right way round until i upload it, any ideas anyone?
The nail varnishes are really nice, they're vibrant pigmented colours that look really shiny and gel like. You only really need one coat if i'm honest, however they don't last very long. They chip after a short period of time, but heyyy they're only cheap and they are gorgoeus colours. The last one is really old telling by the old style packaging and i got given it by my next door neighbour in a huge bundle of nail varnishes she gave me haha. I haven't tried it so im unsure to what it's like! I would reccomend these becausae they have some really nice vibrant colours to try out.
Blush-





This is the only blusher i have from this brand. I've had another one what was very similar but was aaaaages ago. Again the name has rubbed off this and in actual fact i forgot i had it. It was stashed away in my drawer. i remember wearing it odd times with my old maybelline foundation. It's showing up alot darker on camera, but its a nice pinky colour. It's kind of old now so it's gone kinda chalky, i may try it out again at some point.
 
Mascara-
 
I have had the huge thickening mascara and i wasn't a big fan, however this one is awesomeee! I wear it like everyday, its got a perfect sized wand and the formula is just great. It seperates my lashes and doesn't make them go clumpy at all! It's just great for everyday wear and its under £5's wooooo! A deffo must buy :)
