I received the Up All night Collection shown above.  It had a gorgeous collection of brightly colored eye shadows, a body and eye crayon, a lipgloss, lipstick and a mascara.  It even included a bonus doodle stencil.  The tween of the house went mad when she saw it. Of course we get to wear some of it when we go to the concert tomorrow night! 

The lipstick in "I Should Have Kissed You" glided on both our lips smoothly.  The color was bright and felt comfy all night long too! We looked like fashionable and trendy twins totally ready for the concert at MetLife Stadium. 

The liquilights glow gloss in "Taken" was bright and colorful.  It glided on easily and stayed put forever until we washed it off.  We both loved the vivid color...perfect for a party or even a 1D concert like the one here in NJ this week.  

The nail varnish in "Na Na Na" was bright and sparkly. It was super easy to apply and dried to a sparkly sea blue finish in a flash.  It stayed on all weekend long and is still on both on nails.  We got so many compliments on the pretty color and we looked gorgeous at the concert. 

The eyeshadow set had some gorgeous colors including More Than This, Save You Tonight, Up All Night, Another World, and Gotta Be You.  The guide made it a snap to create some fun party looks that I know will look super all summer long. A great concert look is in the works too with all the colors!

The body and eye crayon was lots of fun to play around with. It works great as a liner or you can use the stencils to make designs anywhere.  A totally amazing and bright color too. A fun look for a party or celebration or just a GNO or in. We had a lot of fun getting ready for the concert we drew on our arms and on our faces. We brought it with us and while we were tailgating pre-concert we did up our friends too

The mascara went on smoothly and stayed on without smudging or smearing.  It made both our lashes look long and lush.  The perfect base for all the cute makeup.
