New York Color launches "In The Spotlight" Collection featuring a few limited editions pieces in some gorgeous fall-appropriate colors. The collection consists of
Individual Eyes Custom Compact eye shadow palettes in Fall Makeover(Blue Eyes), Designer Denim (Brown Eyes) and Hot Couture (Green Eyes)
, Smooch Proof 16H lipstain in Work It! Plum, Fashionista Mauve and Look Book Pink,
In A NY Minute Nail Colors in Scenestealer Grey, Backstage Brown and Underground Purple,
Cheek Glow Single Pan Blush in Hello Lover! Pink
and
Lippin Large Lip Plumper in Fashion Week Mauve and Berry Fashionable.
Individual Eyes Custom Compact Eye Shadow Palettes($4.99)
These palettes are designed according to eye color. Each palette has a lid color, crease shades, highlight shade and an eye base. The eye base feels a little too creamy to hold on to eye shadows so, I wouldn't rely on that. The shadows themselves are very pigmented, blend well but, there is quite a bit of fall out especially the ones with glitter. With a good eye shadow primer they last well and do not crease. Fall Makeover
especially is a beautiful neutral palette while the other two are more playful.

Smooch Proof 16H Lip Stain($4.99)
I've talked about these lipstains previously
here. These three colors are new for fall. Work It! Plum is one shade that will look good on all skintones and gives a beautiful wash of color.

In A New York Minute Nail Colors($1.99)
All three colors needed a good 3 coats for opacity and the consistency is on the thinner side. Scenestealer Grey is a perfect shade for medium skin tones. All three shades are very metallic but, very wearable at the same time!

Cheek Glow Single Pan Blush($2.99)
Hello Lover! Pink is a sheer, shimmery light pink. Darker skin tones may have a problem with the color showing up but, keep in mind that it is very buildable and blends really well. The pigmentation is a little sheer and this shade would be a great pick for light-medium skin tones. The texture is finely milled and there's very less fallout. Works great as a highlighter since it leans a tad towards the frosty side!
Overall, the collection has some beautiful shades and is well worth a pick up. The eye shadow fall outs might require a bit of work but, apart from that everything else is fabulous! If you like something, pick it up really soon since everything is Limited Edition.

I'm sad because the whole collection looks really nice, but I know that I'll be lucky if I find a single nail polish here in Australia. We suck.
