L'Oreal Paris Prize Pack

Hey Ghouls;
Today my prize pack from the L'Oreal Paris 'Primped Lash 4D Architect Competition.' There were ten winners and the Competition was to re-create the look from the 4D lash mascara advertising.
So the above image is what we needed to re-create and the prize was everything you needed to create this look. 

Now that you've heard a little about the competition. onto the actual Prize pack.
It arrived Via TNT delivery which i did find a little annoying as they tried to deliver it on Friday and i wasn't home and the nearest depot was about an hour away so i had to get it re-delivered today. 


The pack was delivered in a standard plastic bubble wrap lined bag, inside was a simple white L'Oreal Paris bag. Inside was a personalized note, however i believe that the people at L'Oreal made a mistake by sending me another winner Emily's pack (slightly disappointing). JUST FOUND OUT THAT ONE OF MY AWESOME FRIENDS GOT A PACK WITH MY NAME ON THE LETTER! and on a completely separate note the generic note writer cannot spell Competition (See note below to the left.) The products that were used to create the original 4D look and the products i won in my prize pack include: The L'Oreal 16 hour infallible duo eyeliner, smudge stick in shimmering black. L'Oreal Super liner in Noir/black. L'Oreal color infallible powders, in 014 Eternal Black and 015 in Flashback Silver and the final touch the Lash Architect 4D in Noir/Black. (photos of the products will be featured below)
I haven't had a chance to use them just yet so i'll do a review of the products when i have tried them out. I will also put up some images of me wearing them as the 4D Lash advert is.

I can discuss the products at a first glance, firstly the Super Liner applicator instead of being a brush is some type of rubber, foam material. The tip is rather thick but soft, the tester line i drew on my wrist was a thicker line of eyeliner than I'm used to on a first application however i enjoy thicker eyeliner and the color was very close to true black. The brush on the 4D mascara is short bristled with a slight twist. At a glance i found the Color Infallible powders disappointing, they come in a nice decent sized container which when opened turns out to be filled by a black plastic pad that is pressing the powders into place. The powder in the container itself is only about half a centimeter thick. I can't complain since it was a prize in a competition however although i don't know how much they're selling them for i don't think i'd personally buy them.





As i said previously i will do a review of the products in another post with photos of my makeup.
Thanks for reading :) xx
Lots of love
