Brushes -

The brushes are numbered to show you how to use them step by step, there are 8 brushes altogether.

The face brushes:

⦁  Deluxe Powder Brush #1 

⦁ Dual Fiber Blending Brush #2

⦁ Blush Brush #3

⦁ Angled Contour Brush #4

The eye brushes 

⦁ Blending Brush #5

⦁ Large Eyeshadow Brush #6

⦁ Smudge Brush #7

⦁ Angled Liner Brush #8

The brushes are so soft and well made, personal favourites are the angled contour brush and powder brush. The angled contour brush is the perfect size to get in between the cheek bones and so soft to blend with, the same as the powder brush. The eyes shadow brushes are really soft but dense and can blend eyeshadows well.

They retail at $19.00

Illuminating Shimmer -

The illuminating baked powder gives off a nice natural highlight when applied to the high points on your face or body. They have a nice blendable texture that is silky and smooth that will add a very subtle colour as well as a lot of shimmer. 

Is available in 2 colours :

⦁ Shimmering Sand - pale nude with gold shimmer (swatched below)

⦁ Beach Bum - light brown with gold shimmer

I purchased shimmering sand because of the nice subtle shimmer to it. 

They retail at $7.50

Cream Cheek & Lip Tint

The cream cheek and lip tint are a versatile product because it has 2 uses, you can use it to add colour to your cheek's like a blusher or to your lips like a lip tint. It give's you a nice natural looking glow on your cheeks and applies nicely and evenly. the shade I purchased was coco.

⦁ Rose 

⦁ Peaches 'n' Cream

⦁ Espresso 

⦁ Cabana

⦁ Red Velvet

Enhancing lip gloss

The lip gloss is very thick in texture and glossy with the extra benefit of it being highly pigmented.There are 6 shades that are available with a pearl or satin finish.

From the 6 shades that are available, I purchased "Skinny Dipping"

The 6 shades to chose from are:

⦁ Skinny Dipping - nude browny pink  with a  pearl finish (swatched below)

⦁ Bonfire

⦁ Aloha

⦁ Hibiscus 

⦁ Coral Reef

Packaging

Outer Packaging for all

The collection is made complete by the pretty packaging, a white box with rose gold lines going across it and the brand name "ILLUMINATE" is in the middle also done in rose gold with her name under it. The inside of the box is turquoise which when you open the box gives you a nice pop of colour.  
Product Packaging 
The packaging for the eye and cheek palette is made out of cardboard which makes me feel like it would be quite fragile but it is sturdy, Most of the makeup comes in a white packaging with a see through lid so you can see the products, such as, the cream cheek & lip tint, and the highlighter.
The lid of these two products are plastic and can break or snap, it's not the type of makeup that you can chuck into your bag, you have to be careful with it.
On the other hand, the lip gloss bottles are clear like the other products but the bottle is much harder. 

Where to buy?
You can buy the "ILLUMINATE" line from BHcosmetics directly (they ship to the UK and most places) or you can buy them from ILLUMINATE
