My thoughts
The collection includes an eye shadow palette and three blushes. I love the packaging – I think it’s very elegant and feminine. Kicking off with the palette which contains an array of soft and bright colors; not so wearable but fun to use nonetheless. I am astounded by the pigmentation and texture on these. All shadows are matte, buttery soft and buildable without being chalky. You might notice some fall out though. The color pay off is excellent considering these have a matte feel which typically lacks pigmentation. Overall, this palette is definitely something to get your hands on if you like using colorful and girly shadows.

The blushes come in three shades: Cherry Apple (coral pink), Strawberry Ambrosia (cotton candy pink) and Blackberry Essence (pale purple). All of these have a matte formula and feel silky to the touch. I love how all three of them are so buildable and blend without much effort. The longevity of the blushes is about 6-7 hours after which they start losing some intensity. My favorite is Cherry Apple; I have been wearing it a lot lately. It’s such a beautiful shade and complements my complexion so nicely. I think this color will look good on a wide range of skin tones. Strawberry Ambrosia appears quite light and cool-toned on me. I believe it would suit fairer complexions the most. I am not sure if I will ever be sporting Blackberry Essence; it is just not my color but looks interesting nevertheless.

All in all, Crème De Couture is a fantastic creation by Sigma. The packaging, texture pigmentation, everything is just wonderful!

Sigma Beauty Crème De Couture Collection is priced at $55 and can be purchased online from the website. You can get individual products from the collection as well. Sigma ships worldwide!
