I'm excited to bring you swatches of AFK Cosmetics' newest collection - Round Table! It's inspired by the film, Monty Python and the Holy Grail. I'm a huge Arthurian buff; I had to watch it in high school and really loved it! My fiance purchased this set for me as an anniversary gift and I had to get the full size for the adorable labels. The label artwork were all hand drawn by the owner and match the movie references really well. I recently rewatched the movie just to get caught up with everything.

Overall, I really love everything about the Round Table collection! From the adorable label art, to beautiful eyeshadows, to wonderful mousse-like glosses. Everything was nicely pigmented, comfortable, and followed the theme well. I've been excited for this collection ever since AFK snuck a peek of it a few months ago and it did not disappoint. I look forward to more awesome collections from them!
