If you’re an avid reader of beauty blogs, you have probably came across a Diptyque candle or two.

Purminerals Beautiful Creatures Palette*

Inspired by the film Beautiful Creatures this set of shadows aims to target lovers of sweet neutral looks and those who like something a little more daring, and with eight shades to chose from I’d say it caters for everyone.
