I'm back again with another makeup testing video and post for you today. Natural collection is one of those brands that really reminds me of when I first started wearing makeup so without further ado lets get on with it. If you would like to watch my first impression video on these products it will be at the bottom of the post.
Cover cream in Fair - £1.99
I actually didn't mind this, it isn't the thickest of concealers which meant I found it doesn't fall into any of my dry patches or look cakey. Coverage wise for me it is a little light however I have been enjoying using it for lighter makeup days. I can see this being a really lovely one for people who are just starting out with makeup as it adds a little coverage whilst still being natural.
Sun tint bronzing powder in Golden glow - £1.99
For me this was a little lacking, it isn't very pigmented however it is nice and finely milled and can be built up. I personally love a lot of bronzer so this probably isn't the best for me however again I think it would be brilliant for people who prefer natural makeup or are just starting out.
Blushed cheeks in Pink cloud - £1.99
I've loved these blushes pretty much since I started wearing makeup, it's a stunning medium pink shade. In contrast to the bronzer I do find this has quite a lot of pigment however it blends very easily so if I do go a little heavy handed it isn't a problem.
This is one of the newer products to the collection, I was super excited to give it a go and I have to admit I was a little disappointed. Although it leaves a really pretty rose toned glow on the skin I found it quite difficult to blend and found unless I worked very quickly with the product I found it would set wherever I first put it down.
Brow pencil in Medium brown - £1.99
Out of everything this was the product I disliked the most, for a start the colour was absolutely awful it was so orange toned. I would normally go for the dark brown shade however they didn't have any left in my local boots. If it was just the shade that was awful it would be a little better however I just found it was so waxy and smudged everywhere.
Brow gel in Dark brown - £1.99
I also picked up the new brow gel which I really liked however I did find the brush was huge. Due to the gel being very pigmented and the brush being huge it did make my brows a little messy however if I am careful I can get this to works although I do have to wipe a lot of product off the brush.
Eyeshadow duo in Mink and sable - £1.99
This was practically no existent the shades look really pretty in the pan however I just couldn't get any pigment onto my lids at all. I think if perhaps a parent wanted a subtle eyeshadow for their child this would be really lovely however for me this doesn't even work for no makeup days.

Waterproof mascara - £1.99
I really like this it's a lovely natural mascara which adds a really natural curl to the lashes whilst slightly lengthening them. I would highly recommend this if you want a natural mascara and it's definitely my favourite product I have tried.
Lipstick in Berry blush - £1.99
I really like the natural collection lipsticks they're very comfortable on the lips and are so hydrating. The shade of this is a stunning slightly metallic berry shade which isn't going to be something I'm going to reach for everyday however I think it will be a really lovely one for this time of year.
So that's it for today, I hope you enjoyed this and don't forget to check out this video.
I really like their blushers - so natural and pretty :) personally I generally like their eyeshadows - I have a couple of the matte singles
