It’s not the best set ever, but it will make the 1D fan in your life super happy. Again, add a clear lip gloss, lip balm, or more of the Taken shade.Īll in all, the One Direction Makeup Collection is pretty decent. That was okay, as it is actually a really pretty shade. The Taken Lip Gloss also seemed to stain, and leave the glitter behind, once it wore away. Top with a clear gloss or lip balm if you want some slip. It also stained after wearing away, so you’ll still have color. The ‘I should Have Kissed You’ lipstick seemed to get a little brighter and more vivid. It’s chalky, has no lasting power, and just about wipes off as soon as it’s applied. Another World (Navy shimmer) is terrible. Up All Night (Navy Glitter Gloss eye shadow) isn’t bad. More Than This (pinky-ivory) is good for a highlighter, but is slightly chalky. They’re pigmented, creamy, and have some staying power.
Save You Tonight (shimmery aqua) & Gotta Be You (neutral taupe) are good quality. The 5 Color eye shadow palette is hit and miss. It’s a fab navy blue shade with a lot of creamy texture. I am a big fan of the chubby crayon trend in makeup, and the one included in this kit is no different.

I recently had the opportunity to take the Up All Night One Direction makeup collection for a test drive. There are three One Direction Makeup collections – Take Me Home, Up All Night, and Midnight Memories. It seems as though One Direction has set their sights on their next takeover target – the beauty industry! The boy band already had their own fragrances, and now they’re releasing One Direction makeup collections. And if you have a tween or teen – fuhgeddaboutit. You can’t turn on the radio without hearing one of their songs. These sounds are ours to use now, the music seems to say.One Direction. What makes songs like “Diana” and “Little White Lies” so much fun is that you can hear a bit of the laughing contempt the band holds for those unwilling to take it seriously - the same contempt, it should be noted, that the Who and Van Halen once oozed before they became Hall of Famers. It could be, rather tragically, by the Lumineers.īut One Direction in pure thirsting-for-respect mode is nobody’s idea of a good time. The band and its enablers are no less expert at reproducing this more genteel style “Through the Dark,” for instance, is a shuffling acoustic ditty complete with overblown words about fighting through fire and water for someone’s love.

Even if they’re hitting all kinds of dad-rock pleasure centers on “Midnight Memories,” though, the lyrics are sure to alarm parents on the lookout for teenage dirtbags, to borrow the title of the Wheatus song One Direction covered on its most recent tour. So having fully conquered the moms-and-daughters set that propelled them to stardom, are Styles and his bandmates now gunning for the dads who’ve begrudgingly chaperoned their girls at One Direction gigs across the land? PHOTOS: Supremes to Dolls - Girl group evolution By established One Direction standards, this was basically Eddie Vedder doing Pearl Jam’s “Jeremy.” Styles went further on Sunday’s American Music Awards, pushing his voice during the new album’s “Story of My Life” beyond the usual boy-band precision into a kind of tortured man-bellow. The group has been affecting a studied looseness onstage, as well: Roaming around in front of a capacity crowd at Staples Center, where One Direction played four sold-out concerts in August, the choreography-averse quintet came across more like the Rolling Stones in 1965 than the Backstreet Boys in 1997 - especially Harry Styles, the band’s de facto frontman, who’d even adopted Keith Richards’ debauched-pirate head-scarf look.
