[Review] Kate eyeshadow

Actually, these eyeshadows are belong to my sister xD However, she let me to use some of her makeup. These products have become one of my favorite eyeshadow. 
Compared with another eyeshadow that I've tried, Kate has become my 2nd favorite after Coastal Scents.



The packaging is so <3 <3
You can easily see from the outer side for the color you want to pick! (no need to open the case 1 by 1, so it saves time)
Black is the simple yet elegant color to choose! nice packaging I would say :))


(actually the eyeshadow sponge are provided. However I lost them ;;w;;)


See those colors? It's so pretty right?
The colors in the eyeshadow is very wearable. Based on my experience, the left side really suits casual/smoky looks and right side for sweet/glamour looks. All colors are shimmery.

What I love more about this eyeshadow that the texture is nice. They won't fall out easily and doesn't get messy easily.


Color swatch PU-1 (pink-violet set)  >> left to right, from the light to dark.
-swap 1 time only-

after using wet tissue to clean my hand (swap 1 time).

Color swatch GN-1 (brown-grey set) >> left to right, from the light to dark
-swap 1 time only-

after using wet tissue to clean my hand (swap 1 time).

As for the pigmentation, I would say that the color of light shade doesn't shows, especially beige-white from GN-1. In contrast, the medium-dark colors are great. They're pigmented and could last long on my eyelids (about 6-8 hours).
However, I think this eyeshadow wouldn't suit ppl who have oily face. Because when I use wet tissue to clean my hand, after about swapping 5 times, the colors disappear. Moreover, 1 time swap is enough to clean the eyeshadow using makeup remover.

Lastly, I still would say that PU-1 is my favorite~ :D


PROS
+ nice Packaging
+ pigmented & pretty colors
+ Sponge is provided
+ Travel friendly
+ affordable

CONS
- light color doesn't show
- easy to disappear (with water, especially oil type remover)


Rating: 8.5/10

The Body shop - eyeshadow palette #2 smoky bronze

I just realized that I haven't post anything lately .__.
Yeah, I miss blogging now :(
Recently, so many things happen. Some were bad and some were good.
Moreover, I also learned so much things about life in this month which makes me realized that I'm truly blessed :')

As for holiday, I went to Puncak and Bali last week. I had lots of fun~ 
and yes, Bali's food is super duper DELICIOUS. I'll drool again when I remember that time XD
Luckily, eventhough I eat like craziehh I didn't gain weight *yeayyyy*

--------------------------------------------------

So, today I'm back with another review.
This review will be about THE BODY SHOP #2 smoky bronze eyeshadow palette
and here's my thought ..


• Packaging: The design is simple and elegant. Also, I love how they put mirror and 2 mini brush for wearing the eyeshadow. It's really convenient, so I don't need to bring my "long" eyeshadow brush with me in my makeup pouch :D For the brush itself, it's soft and the quality is good (For the brush fibre, it's similar like Masami shouko brush). However, the size is rather big, it will takes many spot in my makeup pouch. Therefore, I rarely bring it with me :(






(close up to the eyeshadow)

• Texture: they are easy to blend, but the palette tends to get a little bit messy everytime I use it. (eventhough I'm already careful when using it)


(swatches in my hand. From right to left, the darkest shade to the lightest)
all colors are shimmering

• Pigmentation: I will say this product is so-so for the pigmentation. Why? because I need to swap like 3 times to make the eyeshadow appear on my eyelid. I would say coastal scents eyeshadow still much more better than this. 

• Lasting power: I must say the power is not really bad. When using the eyeshadow with eye primer, it will last for around 6 hours.



Conclusion...

PROS
> Have mirror+2 mini brush
> Great for smoky looks
> Lasting power is good
> Easy to blend


CONS
> pricey, I think its around $20++ (can't remember the exact price)
> the eyeshadow rather easy to get messy


So, that's the end of my review.
See ya~


*Ps: I have a new hairstyle XD I will post about it soon~

[Coastal Scents] 78 eyeshadow blush palette

It's been so long since I've made a post to this blog, cause there're so much thing to do on my past weekends and also the weekdays T^T
But, today I'm back with full of courage and I want to write a review about a palette that I bought 5 months ago and I'm sooo lucky to get that palette with discount price <3 <3
*PS: please remember if you want to buy this product, you should look carefully at the colors in the palette and the original one ONLY have blush and eyeshadow in this palette. Because there're so many palette that says the brand is coastal scents, but it's the price so much cheaper than you purchase on the official website/supplier.

Official websitehttp://www.coastalscents.com/

And here's the pics of my palette <3

Wanna know does it worthed to buy? So, keep reading my review <3

Packaging = Since I think packaging is important, I should say this is GREAT! Why? The package is simple but nice, also from this picture below, you can see the eyeshadows are well organized. So it will be easier for anyone to choose the color that you want to use. But, a palette has a big size (same as any other palette) so I think it's not really suitable for bringing it anywhere~ Usually I only use it at home.

Pigmentation = The colors are easy to blend and shows up really well to my eyes, you'll only need a little amount to use the eyeshadow and the result will be much better if you use eye primer. But, some of the light color doesn't show up when you already apply it to your eyes, especially for the white. In my opinion, I don't like the white color in this palette, because my eyes will looks strange when using this color 0__0
(I've take a pic, so you can see the pigmentation of this eyeshadow)

As for the blush on, I love the colors they choose for this palette. Because I can use it for the blush on my cheeks and also for contouring my face <3 and when use it, the color will shows up naturally.

The colors are so GORGEOUS right? and sooo many pastel colors <3 

Stay power = For the stay power, if you use eye primer the colors could be last for almost 12 hours. But for the blush personally I think it only stays for 5 hours.
(I use my makeup on 9am and this pics below taken on 9pm)





Overall, here's the PROS:
-) Affordable, I bought it only IDR 225.000
-) Easy to blend
-) Great pigmentation
-) The eyeshadow's color are well-organized
-) Nice and pretty colors

CONS:
-) Doesn't stays long without primer
-) Not travel friendly
-) The light colors doesn't really shows up

Rating = 9.5/10

Overall Comments,
It's an awesome product, the price are affordable and it has so much colors. So, for beginners I think it will really suites you <3

Thanks for reading! :)
