BareMinerals’ Vintage Pearls kit

I was definitely not thrilled when I heard the lineup for this collection: two previously-released colors? Even if they are infused with crushed Honora pearls?? Are you kidding me?!?? Turns out that this version of Antique Pearl is a bit different from the version that I fell in love with (there’s a pink iridescence rather than a blue pearlescence) and the Twilight is a little more blackened. But I’m still glad that I didn’t buy this kit full size. The blush is really not suitable for my skintone, and I’ve never been the biggest fan of the mineral veil nor the lip glosses. I was happier with both the Modern Pearls kit and with the Beautiful In Pearls kit - even if the latter was a pair of brown eyeshadows.
