Bare Escentuals And Away We Glow... Kit - Photos and Swatches

I recently picked up the Bare Escentuals And Away We Glow... kit during the September BE preview day. I've been a little slow to swatch it but pulled it out today. This kit is gorgeous!!! It may look subdued, but these colors make a real elegant combination.




The kit retails for $54 and is part of the Bare Escentuals Holiday Lineup. You can pick the kit up at http://www.bareescentuals.com/ or look for it in your nearest department store. The kit contains the following items:

New Full Size Round the Clock Waterproof Eyeliner in Midnight
Full Size Flawless Definition Mascara in Black
Full Size Pretty Amazing Lipgloss in Flair
Full Size Prime Time Primer Shadow in Dove Grey
Wet/Dry Shadow Brush
Contour Blush Brush
Full Size Swanky Eyecolor
Full Size Luxury Blush
Full Size Turn-On Highlighter

All colors were swatched dry on bare skin. No primer. Amazing payoff.

This kit is just gorgeous. I don't know why it took me so long to crack this open. I don't think I can pick a favorite item out of this kit. The primer shadow, eyeshadow, blush, highlighter, and gloss are all amazing.
  • The highlight provides a nice peachy pink sheen.
  • Luxury blush is a pink coral shade. I had to build this one up on my arm to get it to show but it's a gorgeous color.
  • Swanky eyecolor is a slightly off-white shimmery color with white sparkles.
  • Dove Grey is a taupe grey with a hint of pink. I think this is in the same family as Urban Nature which I also love.
  • Flair is a peach nude color gloss - very wearable.
  • Midnight is your basic black liner but this new formulation is waterproof and formulated with Vitamin E to care for the eye area.
  • The brushes are both very soft. I believe this is the same brush hairs that were used in last holiday's kits.

All in all, this is a great kit and I will be wearing it tomorrow!
