Collection 2000 Natural Matt+ Foundation

Advantages: Keeps skin dry and grease-free all day ~ Cheap ~ Easy to apply
Disadvantages: No coverage

...Little information is available for Collection 2000, save for their contact details (see below). I first became aware of them as a teenager - their products were often given away with teen magazines such as Just 17 or More! Their whole range is extremely good value for money with foundations starting at around £1.99. I was looking for a cheap, everyday-wear foundation and I decided to choose Collection 2000 as I've liked their products in the past. I bought this foundation from eBay costing £1.99. I'm unsure of their full range of colours, but I chose Natural Ivory as I'm very pale. Natural Matt+ ----------------- As the name suggests, this foundation is designed to keep the complexion matte throughout the day. The ingredient used for this purpose is kaolin. Water is top of the ingredients list, but other ingredients include...

Review of Collection 2000 Foundation

Collection 2000

Advantages:
Disadvantages:

...The Collection 2000 range does not usually impress me, however the 3 in 1 foundation works wonders! It acts as a wet and dry foundation, powder and concealer. The sponge that comes with it is good to use when damp or dry, but for a perfect finish it is best to use it damp. The foundation is easy to get off your skin but lasts for as long as you want it to. The name may not be big, but at £2.99 the foundation will last a long time and is a definite bargain. I would recommend this to anyone in need of a good foundation that doesn't like to have to carry around concealers too, as this is a very quick and efficient form of make-up....

Collection 2000 Fast Stroke Liquid Eyeliner

Advantages: Good price, easy to apply because of lid, lasts all day
Disadvantages: None

...of it is the lid, which corresponds to it. This is fairly confusing as I was going to buy the waterproof version, but wasn't 100% sure that it was black. The product has a very long, thin lid which widens towards the bottom. I find this very helpful as I hold the lid at the widened part, but rest the thin end across by second finger, helping to keep it steady. One the pot, there is little information. It tells you FAST STROKE EYELINER COLLECTION 2000 on the front and "for precision and definition, Shake well before use" on the edge. So it doesn't exactly tell you how to apply it. After undoing the lid, the tip is fairly stiff to pull out, so if you aren't careful, it could be pretty easy to flick the liquid. There isn't too much liquid that is on the tip but I always just wipe off the access on the edge of the opening, but it isn...

COLLECTION 2000 COLOUR LASH MASCARA

Advantages: Good value for money and doesn't go gloopy
Disadvantages: None

...buying MaxFactor or Clinique, but at the moment I am a wee bit skint and as I had very little money with me and my overdraft is maxed out, my colleague recommended that I try Collection 2000. I wasn't convinced at first because I thought that it wouldn't be any good, but how wrong I was! I not only changed brands, but the colour too. After much deliberating, I decided on Collection 2000 Colour Lash Mascara. Boots were out of stock of my usual favourite - brown, so I opted for a clear mascara (with my colouring, black is strictly for nights out only!) and a purple for after works drinks. The packaging looked good (I believe it has recently undergone a revamp). It has a shaped lid in silver, which is great because it makes it easier to grip when applying and if you have arthritis in your hands like me, then you will find that...

Review of Collection 2000 Colour Lash Mascara

Collection 2000 the nail varnish you can trust

Advantages: Great coverage
Disadvantages: ---

...Collection 2000 has become a well known brand over the last few years and I have quite a few of their products due to their wide range and price which is normally very reasonable. One of the best products I have found from the range are the nail varnishes. I have a large selection due to the fact I am a massive nail varnish and nail art fan. Due to this fact I have used many different brands but have found collection 2000 to be one of the best. I have both the 8ml Hot looks bottles and the 12ml maxi flex. 8ml bottles include shades: • 4 Charisma • 7 Glam • 9 Catwalk • 12 Minx • 14 Boho • 23 Show off • 24 Shameless 12ml bottles include shades • 324 Hello Sailor • 246 Latin Lover Being a bit of a glitter fiend many of this have that added sparkle and even...

Collection 2000..And it 'aint outta date honey..

Advantages: Inexpensive very versatile lasts.
Disadvantages: None really.

...I see there has only been 1 op written on this makeup and I am here to redress the balance a bit. Ok ok,this isn't Este lauder,clinique or even boots' own.but I'll tell you what,I have no complaints. They offer quite an attractive and excellent range in a no nonsence versatile kinda way. you're bound to find products that not only look and feel pretty darn good but treat your purse good aswell. So,-I'm a knackered 40 plus housewife on a budget? so what! People compliment my skin and say I have lovely eyes when I'm dressed up,and who cares about the frog neck and the flat comfy shoes! at the end of the day,-as the ad bangs on about: "I'm special! And I'm worth it!" and that's why my collection 2000 makeup is growing steadily by the day. It may not be the best there is but there's no way I need to fritter a fortune out...

Review of Collection 2000 Cleansing Cloths

Collection 2000 Glam Crystal

Advantages: Very easy application and a wonderful long lasting finish every time
Disadvantages: None

...This review is on the Collection 2000 Glam Crystals in the green shade (La Freake is the name, but i am not 100% on that). I had this eyeliner as part of a Christmas Present. I love different shades of green, so i couldn't wait to try this one out. The colour is a very vibrant shade of green with those glamorous pigments in that make it shiny and crystal like. It is a gel liner in a tube, with a petite liner brush on the end. The application of this gel liner is amazingly easy. It goes on like a dream and even if you are like me (not a steady hand), it goes on professionally. The colour is so vibrant, it lasts all night or day if you wear it as a daytime look. It isn't a clumpy liner which is good because it gives you that even finish every time and the tube is small so you can simply pop it in your bag. I highly...

Review of Collection 2000 Glam Crystals Dazzling Gel Liner

Collection 2000 Eye Duo

Advantages: Cheap and cheerful
Disadvantages: Short lasting, not all that intesely pigmented

...Note: I am aware I purchased purple, not blue, but this is technically the right category since they are all the same product. Im not sure why this catagory (eyeshadow/collection 2000) is divided by colours in the first place. I wanted a purple eyeshadow to play with in an attempt to broaden my colour range. I have blue eyes and I thought purple would make them look more indigo. However, because purple is not a colour I will wear often (its not exactly a daytime look!), I wasnt prepared to spend a lot of money. I had a quick look in Superdrug in my lunch our at the cheaper options. Originally, I thought I would get the Rimmel, but the colour options were a bit lacking. The display was very empty. Plus, the purple they did have was leaning towards the red side, which I didnt think would look anygood. I found on a lower shelf...

Review of Collection 2000 Blue Eye Shadow

Dazzle your eyes with Glam Crystal Gel Liner (Collection 2000 Gla

Advantages: Can build up colour, lasts all night
Disadvantages: Can go watery

...I received two of the Glam Crystals dazzling eye liners as a present off two seperate people both in Pizzazz which is a really lovely shade of green. I'd never used collection 2000 products since high school 15 years ago and could not believe the transformation of the brand. The eye liner is so easy to apply just unscrew and apply, the thin brush means that you can build up the colour so if you want a day time look just use one stroke or for a night time look build it up for the desired look. I usually only use it at night and I wear it over eyeshadow and black eyeliner, only putting it on the top eye line as I think using it on the bottom would be overkill. The glitter is not trashy at all it gives just the right amount of sparkle. I can't wait to try the other colours available I have found that after a while they can go a little...

Review of Collection 2000 Glam Crystals Dazzling Gel Liner

A collection of 2000 chips

Advantages: Good selection of colours
Disadvantages: Doesn't stay on for long!

...I have never found a nail varnish that chips so quickly! While I was impressed by the price of this product, and also the variety of colours, I have never succeeded in keeping the varnish on my nails for the amount of time it took me to arrive at the party, ball etc. which I had painted my nails for in the first place! I'll admit that I don't often wear nail polish, but whenever there is a special occasion I do tend to put some on. I also admit that I am probably the worst person ever at keeping any sort of nail varnish on, I do have a tendancy to walk into things etc, which is possibly why it chips in the first place. The worst thing about collection 2000 though is that once you have slightly chipped it, it peels off in great big chunks! I once wore it to a posh ball and painted my nails the same coulour as my dress, which looked great...
