bareMinerals: Get Started eyes cheeks and lips (review and swatches)

Hi everyone, I know it's been a while since I last blogged but I'm back now and ready to blog! Hehe anyway I recently bought this kit from bareMinerals at Debenhams for £42. Whilst being a little pricey these loose pigments last ages as you only need a tiny amount to get a great amount of colour. The kit comes with 3 brushes; a blush brush, a double ended crease and flat eye shadow brush and an eyeliner brush. The only thing I hate about this set is the double ended brush, I hate double ended brushes as I like to stand to stand my brushes up in a pot, but I can't with a double ended brush as it may ruin the bristles and bend them. 
The complete "8 piece Custom Colour Collection".
Fair to Light complexion.
This is the blush brush, they call it the tapered blush brush
but I don't think it's very tapered, however I still love it!
       This is the crease side of the double ended brush
           its a very fluffy crease brush with long bristles,
              used to contour the socket or crease of the eye.
This is a large flat shading brush, used to pat shadow
                                onto to the eyelid.
This is an eyeliner brush it looks quite thick, but it can createa thick or thin line depending on what you want to create.
 My camera does not show up the shimmer in the blush or liner.

The Colours
Dolly lip gloss, is  a plumping gloss that is dusty mauve rose like colour with tiny flecks of golden glitter.

Nurture is liner that can be used wet or dry. When used wet, it becomes a really intense dark line, however when used dry it gives a sheer smokey look. Its a plum brown with a reddish shimmer. Can also be used as a shadow.

Smoke eye shadow is a matte grey, slate colour that's perfect for blending colour out or used as a crease colour.

Winter White glimpse eye shadow is a great brightening base colour that is a light, white colour with golden shimmer.

Kiss blush is a very shimmery pretty pinkish rose with a lot of silver shimmer.
