'My Sign' Makeup Revolution London Eyewheel + Lipgloss Review

So for Christmas my sister had gotten me a makeup product that  hadn’t seen before! It was the ‘My Sign’ Eye Wheel  by Makeup Revolution London in the shade Gemini. I was surprised she even remembered my star sign! After looking them up online I found out that there is an Eye Wheel and Lipgloss for each of the 12 star signs. The Eye Wheels are £5 and the Lip Glosses are £3.

This is the Gemini Eye Wheel:



When I looked at the colours I realised that they aren’t really colours that I usually wear, green especially. After swatching them and playing around with them (this was for a YouTube video that I will link at the end) I decided that they weren’t so bad and that I would at least give them another shot! (I know the second swatch looks gold but its actually a metallic green shade)

Each wheel has:
·         An eye primer
·         3 Eyeshadows
·         2 Brow Shades
·         A Highlighter

So on boxing day I went into town to get some bargains in the sale and had to stop by Superdrug to at least check out the other shades. When I got there a lot of the shades were still there which was surprising since every new Makeup Revolution product usually sells out in store pretty fast. After looking at all of the shades I decided to pick up the Taurus Eye Wheel  (it had a lovely gold eyeshadow that I was 
REALLY drawn too) and the Gemini Lipgloss.



This Taurus Eye Wheel I picked because the gold eyeshadow is stunning  (I always tend to wear warm browns, oranges and GOLDS) so this selection of colours was sort of perfect for me really. I actually used some of the brown brow powder to blend in my crease as the darker black colour is a little too overpowering for me.

So all of the swatch pictures were taken in a hurry and I completely forgot to include a swatch of the highlighter and the Gemini Lipgloss so here they are:



The highlighter and the brow powders are the same in each Eye wheel meaning once you have one you’re only really paying for another three eyeshadows! All of the shadows are fairly pigmented and easy to blend in. I haven’t used the primer at all as I tend to use my liquid primer from the same brand. The gloss isn’t tacky or sticky (which is what is despise from a gloss) and is a beautiful colour, only problem is that it transfers quite easily as it doesn’t really dry on your lips.

Overall I really like these products, I would recommend the Taurus Eye Wheel if you want a really nice golden eyeshadow! The Gemini Lipgloss is such a nice colour and not sticky or heavy on the lips at all but does transfer far too easily! If you have any of the My Sign collection then let me know which products you pick!!

I also did a Youtube video on these products, swatching them and doing a full face look with the Gemini products which is linked below!


Thanks for stopping by today to read my review, I hope this helps you decide which products to pick!

  1. For something that is very low in price, it still look pretty pigmented!
