I keep telling myself I don't need any more eyeshadow palette, but at this time of year, there are so many new releases that are just too good to miss. Prima Makeup came to being in 2016 when the CEO, Emma Southorn, created the idea of Prima Makeup from her hospital bed. Having been diagnosed with Sepsis, Emma was told she may not survive and she began thinking of all the things she wished she had the chance to do. Glitter and sparkle obsessed, Emma wanted to bring the most beautiful glitters to the market is an easy to wear and relatable format. As she began to recover, Emma decided to turn her dream into a reality and in 2016, Prima Makeup was born.
The Twinkling Twelve Collection (£27.99 here) is made up of 12 individual pressed glitters all housed in a beautiful glittering case. What makes them slightly different to other pressed glitters is that these ones have a unique formula because they have a built-in adhesive, which I think is really clever and something other brands should look at because with Prima you don't need a separate fixing gel to make the glitter stick.
That said, they are not greasy or tacky and because they contain no oil, they also won't crease! With some beautiful shades to choose from, my palette features:
- Liquid Gold - Light Gold Metallic
- Grey Skies - Light Grey Metallic
- Hot Chocolate - Brown Metallic
- The Only Way Is Barbie - Pink Holographic
- Starlight - Silver Holographic
- Drama at the Disco - Black Holographic
- Pink to make the boys wink - Light Metallic Pink
- Copper Kettle - Metallic Copper
- Mermaids Tail - Iridescent White
- Ariels Night Out - Holographic Sea Green
- Hot Shot Pink - Metallic Hot Pink
- Out of the Blue - Metallic Cobalt Blue
As well as being used on the eyes, these pressed glitters can also be used on your lips and face and again because they contain aloe vera, the formula doesn't irritate, scratch or mark the skin, In fact, as glitter makeup goes, these are some of the most comfortable that I have used and they are incredibly long lasting, full of pigment and have that wow factor for the upcoming festive season!
Prima Makeup pressed glitters are gluten free, vegan friendly, non-toxic, paraben free and formaldehyde free. All of the other products listed on Prima Makeup are also vegan friendly and contain no animal products of any kind.
Ideal for your own makeup kit or making the perfect Christmas gift, The Twinkling Twelve Collection has been beautifully packaged in a sparkling magnetic palate. Available at the high-street’s hottest retailers including River Island, Prima Makeup further ships to over 19 countries worldwide.
