Jewel-light Waterproof Eyeliner in 8 Pink Topaz

This is by no means a new release, the famed Jewel Light Warterpoof Eyeliner has been around for quite sometime. A lot of people raved about it, and of course, I wanna see why...

Holika Holika promises creamy pencil dazzling finishes. Of course waterproof too! And the color choices... they surely got you covered: from office friendly browns and navy, dazzling metallics to matte brights!

I got No 08 Pink Topaz this time. it looks pretty in the pictures... warm champagne pink metallic. Be aware though, this is not metallic, this shade is more fine glitter/visible shimmer than anything else. I love that it has a bit of sheer quality to it... i justlove using this type of color to line the corners of my eyes.

The eyeliner is definitely creamy and so easy to apply. I am glad to share with you too, that the color and glitter doesnt travel around my face! it was, amazingly, stays put until the end of the day!

I am thinking to get the gold and mystic blue... hmm... 

Bottomline, 

I am loving it due to the unique pink champagne color. Love the creamy texture and pigmented color!

Etude House Princess Happy Ending Fairy Glitter Shadow in #3 Evening Party

Among Etude’s 2014 Princess Happy Ending collection, I managed to purchase Belle’s blush and Cinderella’s eye shadow so far. The collection itself revolves around four famous princesses: Cinderella, Snow White, Belle and Jasmine. Each princess have her own set which consist of various make up items. 

Cinderella has 3 eyeshadows and nail polish set. I picked up #3 Evening Party, the darkest, most chocolate-y of all three. 

As usual, the box is prettily designed, as is the tub top! Baby blue + pretty prints in gold… so cute! The tub itself is made of plastic, but it doesn’t feel too light/flimsy. In the beginning, it comes with curved plastic cover to protect the eyeshadow once you opened the tub. 

The eyeshadow itself is of dry jelly to powder texture… if that makes sense… feels soft to touch, and it ‘bounces’ back to its shape after you press it. Therefore, I will recommend to keep the curved plastic cover, just to ensure it wont dry up too fast. 

I’d describe Evening Party as medium chocolate with microglitter. Even though it has glitter in it, I do think the color is still office friendly. The swatch on the left was immediately blended once I applied it. The one on the right was single swipe with fingertip. 

Pigmentation was medium... easy to use and apply with fingertips. Color comes out easily, but it still has sheer quality in it. The glitter itself is soft and not gritty. And it does pack a punch of sparkle… not discoball big huge glitter… more of tiny glitter. 

Bottomline,

Love the theme and the texture of this baby. The color is sweet and office friendly.

Peripera Tap Tap Eyes Eyeshadow Palette in Disney Frozen 1 Let It Go

Squeal! Another Elsa make up! This Summer I’m so happy that a Korean brand, Peripera has launched a Disney Frozen themed collection. I reviewed the liptint earlier, and now, it is time for the eyeshadow palette. 

(clubclio.co.kr) 

Just like the liptint, Peripera offers 2 different palette too: 1 Let It Go and 2 I’m Happy, Kristoff. Elsa’s color is naturally cooler toned than Anna’s. 

I’m loving the packaging here… not only because The Frozen Queen herself is there, but also because it has big mirror attached to the palette! I love big mirrors for easy application! Peripera also includes dual tipped sponge applicator, but I don’t care about that, since I almost always apply shadows with my fingertips. 

The palette itself contains three colors: cool toned iridescent white with shimmer finish… which reminds me of snowflakes. Warmer pink tinted purple with shimmer finish. And darker aubergine with shimmer as well. all three are sheer and easy to blend, but building up color is possible without cakey finish. 

The powder is easy to pick and soft, pleasant to work with.

Now, the shimmer might not be every one’s cup of tea, but me, I like it. It glimmers nicely, very Elsa! I can totally see a make up artist re-creating Elsa’s eye make up with this palette. 

Bottomline…

Workable texture, lovely shimmer and perfect color combination! Very Elsa, very spot on!
