I dont have the set but I do have burgundy and it is my fave e/s!!! It lasts all day and is so perfect for smoky eyes and is so vibrant and beautiful!! I'm now trying to hunt down the set on EBAY so I can try the rest of the colors. Yeah the packaging sucks but if you just use a brush, they apply wonderfully!

At first I wasn't really sure about these chalks -- I mean I LOVE the colors, but had the hardest time getting them out of their little tubes and figuring out how to use them. Then I had a brainstorm! I took them all out of their tubes, took off the plastic wrappers and left them in their little compartmental box so I could just swipe them with brushes. Works like a charm and I don't get crumbly, chalky messes that everyone else complains about!! Still loving the colors, esp. the pink for a blush highlight!

I'm in the minority here. I LOVED these! What pretty colors and I had no problem with them crumbling. When I used then I left the plastic cover on the chalks so it wouldnt get on my fingers and just applied where I wanted. The Rose & Burgundy applied right on the lips with some clear gloss over them made for pretty lippies. I love these so much.

As noted by others, these BB shimmer chalks will crumble easily. I've found that the best way to apply them is to use a brush without taking them completely out of the container. The colors are very lovely, but they seem a little drying for the lips. I haven't used them on my cheeks at all. I would use these more often if the application wasn't such a pain. I probably should have passed on this set.

Oy. Vey. This. Product. Stinks. The chalks get all over the place except for where you want them to go! When applying these, the sticks actually crumble leaving your face a mess. I can't see using any of these colors for something other then eyeshadow. I used one color 2x and then swapped it away if thats any indication. And at $35 a box, I give it a big thumbs down :(

I'm sure this product seemed like a good idea in theory, but it was the execution that fell short. These chubby little sticks are pretty crappy. They crumble, break, streak, and are very drying. The packaging is awful and they are so messy. While the colors are nice, they are utterly useless cause you can't do anything with them! What a rip-off. Tip: If you want a good multiple stick, try NARS or WTF?
