Divergent Make Up Set

Hey Gals!

So I know this blog is usually all about nails, but I just got the large set from the Divergent Make Up Collection and I just had to share. I love it!


First off, they totally hit it out of the park with the packaging. I just love how the Ferris Wheel looks and everything it symbolizes from the book.  BUT, what comes inside of it is even better!



This kit came with so many things it was totally worth the $59.50 at Sephora. The blush, bronzer, and highlighter are what really caught my eye when I first saw this beauty online.


So far in using these products I found all of them to be pretty pigmented and long wearing. The highlighter reminds me of Albatross by Nars and the bronzer reminds me of Casino by Nars.




It also came with 15 different eye shadows. These also wore very nicely and were pigmented well. The three very sparkly "transformer" shades on the left hand side look the best when applied wet I found. I also loved how they each detached and could be attached to a different quad for a multitude of different looks.

 
This brush worked well with both the face applications and the eye shadows. Both ends were very soft, held the color well, and blended well. It was my first time using a dual ended brush and I thought it was really quick and space saving.



Last but not least we have the glosses! These were amazing too. I found them very similar to Hourglass glosses. They were very sheer and shiny, but not sticky on the lip at all. They paired very nicely with any of the eye shadow looks as well. The kit also came with some demonstration cards showing different looks you could create inspired by the movie. Unfortunately, in my excitement for this post I totally forgot to take a picture of those LOL Whoops! All in all I felt like this kit was a great buy at $59.50 for everything that you receive. Even if you aren't a huge fan of the books or movie like I was, I think you would still like the kit. I bought mine at my local Sephora inside JC Penney, but it was one of the last ones available there. If you're thinking about buy this, you should probably act pretty quickly before their sold out because of course they are limited edition. Hope everyone has a fabulous day!

XOXO,
