Collection: Work The Colour Eye Shadow Trio in Naughty n' Nude Review (+Swatches)

Hello lovelies! Another day, another blog post! I don't have anything new to show you today, but I do have a little review on a product I have had for a month or two now, one which I have found myself reaching for most days when I need to go go go! Basically this is my go-to palette when I am in a rush for college and need something quick and easy, but also brightening for my eye.

This cute little trio is from Collection Work The Colour, and is one of their new products under the new name since they changed it from Collection 2000. You can find this brand in both Boots and Superdrug, and at the price of only £3.19, you really can't go wrong with these little treats!

I purchased the shade Naughty n Nude, which is the second mini-palette out of eight that you can collect. With this trio you get a dark, rich purplish-brown colour, a very pretty gold colour that would be perfect as either an all over lid colour or a highlighter, and a cream shadow which you can use as either a base or a highlighter. All shades are quite shimmery, especially the cream shadow, which I found to be a little too glittery for my own liking, but it's still very lovely.

Whilst the darker shade may not be as neutral as most would like, I find that you can ut it on uite sheer and build it up to however dark you want it to be, something which would be useful for those of you who like to intensify your look from day to night!

I use the cream shadow mostly from this palette, because it's so quick and easy to pop on if I a rushing off to college. The tone of the cream base also brightens up my eyes before I go, but when I have more time, I use all three colours and create a simple look by using the cream shadow as a base, the gold as an all over lid colour and the darkest shade in my crease and on the outer corner of my eyes. Just having all three colours there is very useful, especially if I am rushing off and need something quick to do!

The packaging is also very compact, something which caught my eye with this trio. I carry my makeup to college now, so having something small and light is always helpful. I also find it to be quite cute with how little it is!

The colours, as I said, are very shimmery, especially the cream shadow, but because I don't mind shimmery based pigments I'm fine. I also find the colours, especially the darkest shade, to be quite pigmented, which I was so pleased with because when I bought this palette you could not swatch it (even though Collection don't seal their items, which can lead to others poking their fingers in the products), so I had to take my chances with this one.

I personally really like these colours; the gold is a beautiful shade, and it really brightens and highlights my eyes. It's also that perfect go-to shade if you want to look a little bit more awake, or just need something quick to put on before you rush off. With the pink and the gold, I interchange what I wear depending on my mood, so I find that both the cream shade and the gold shade are suitable for quick mono-shadow looks if you just need something simple and easy. If I feel like I need more definition, I use a light hand with the dark purplish-brown shade because it's so pigmented!

I love this little palette, and that's because it's so easy to use and has all the colours I need to complete a look or just to create something quick and easy before I go off to learn! The colours are pigmented, and they blend beautifully together. The cream base is very glittery, something which I do find to be a bit of a downfall with this palette, but I bear with it because I like how it looks as a shadow on its own and how well it brightens my eyes!

This is a gorgeous little palette which will work beautifully with green eyes, and at just £3.19, it's a bargain waiting to be bought!

I don't think that this is the best eye trio I have ever tried, but I do like it. The colours will fade after a few hours, and they will crease throughout the day because the cream base on its own is a horrible primer, but for someone on a budget this is a lovely product, and if you are a girl-on-the-go, this might be a nice little purchase for you as well. Collection do have many other shades, including greens and purples and blue's for the more adventurous make-up lovers, but for someone who needs something easy and brightening, Naughty n' Nude (or even Chocolate Chip) is the perfect little palette for you. It's easy to use, the colours can be used sheer or you can build them up for a more powerful impact of colour.

It's a sweet, handy little trio, so try it out if you like Collection, or if you just need something to give you a quick and easy look to get you through the day!

Have you guys tried out this palette? If you have, what do you think and what colours do you have?
