I don’t really have anything in the colored eye pencils department so I though it’s wise to invest in this collection. I like how it doesn’t tug at my skin and it’s easy to smudge it out. The color selection for this collection is just my kind of color spectrum. Let’s check it out shall we?

Previously I blogged about the other Petite Baked Eye Colour Trio in Golden Metallics (read about it HERE). Both are part of Laura Mercier’s Holiday Colour Collection for 2012 (read about my initial picks HERE). If you are not a fan of green, or your outfit clashes with the shades in Golden Metallics, or for whatever reason, Smoky Metallics is on the rescue. It matches anything and everything (in my opinion).
