I was chosen to do a review of the Makeup by One Direction.  There are five palettes,one for each member of the band.  This is a limited edition collection. These new sets are available in stores November 15th at: Sears USA Kmart Target Walmart Canada You can check it out on facebook here: https://www.facebook.com/MakeupbyOneDirection   Each palette has 6 eyeshadows, one eyeliner pencil, one topcoat glitter lip gloss, 4 lip glosses, 2 nail polishes and a lip brush and eye shadow brush.  I was sent the palettes featuring Niall, Liam and Harry.  All the palettes have the same makeup inside, but feature a different member of the band on the front. On the inside cover are random doodles and the featured band members signature. The names of the makeup are: Eye Shadows: Nobody Compares- Metallic silver Tell Me A Lie- Metallic nude pink Same Mistakes- Metallic mint I Would- Smokey brown shimmer Summer Love- Smokey purple haze Everything About Yo
