LORAC The Private Affair Collection

The Private Affair Collection by Lorac is offered exclusively by Sephora. It includes a six eyeshadow palette, a small dual-ended brush, a .19 oz tube of Behind The Scenes Eye Primer, Cream Eyeliner in Plum and Multiplex 3D Lashes mascara. The eyeshadow palette comes in a 5 inches x 2.2 inches x 1.45 inches faux purple alligator print box that has a long drawer on the end containing a compartment for the brush and primer. Both the eyeliner and mascara come in their own separate packaging. The palette case is shiny and the small drawer has a handle that makes it easy to pull out. The six eyeshadows are: 1. creamy beige (with pearl), 2. champagne rose (with shimmer), 3. soft taupe (with pearl), 4. platinum grey (with pearl), 5. deep wine (with shimmer) and a black/purple (with sparkle). The medium purple matte eyeliner jar has a lid with a brush hidden in the end. The mascara is black and its brush is curved with short, rigid bristles.

I like all the eyeshadow colors, they are a good range of dark and light colors. I like to use them with a primer to prevent fallout. The eyeliner can be smudged after application, it does not dry solid or quickly. And, the mascara is smudge-resistant and contains Silk and Keratin to condition lashes.
