PRODUCT ASSESSMENT
⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛

PACKAGING:

made of plastic / with rectangular mirror / with dual-ended sponge tip applicator

I love that they included a mirror and a dual-ended sponge tip applicator which comes handy when traveling.

The mirror has the tendency to slightly slide down (very slightly) but you can always push it up using your thumb. Nothing to worry about.

Without primer: Matte shades, 2 to 3 swipes for maximum color deposit.

Without primer: Shimmery shade, 1 to 2 swipes for maximum color deposit.

Without primer: 6 hours - non air-conditioned area

COLOR PAY-OFF:

PINK

The colors are warm and vivid but still wearable in daylight if used sparingly. It's more shimmery than Brown and the colors are perfect for a night out. Shade no.1 and no.2 can double up as a highlighter and shade no.6 as an eyeliner. The gem is shade no.4 and no.5 because it's rose gold, it goes with anything.

BROWN

The colors are cool, muted and flat so it's daylight and fluorescent friendly. It's school and office appropriate because it's composed of earth tones. For the texture, 2 out of 6 is matte. The other 4 is shimmery. Shade no.1 can be used as a highlighter and shade no.6 as an eyeliner. Shade no. 5 is perfect to create the subtle cut-crease eye makeup technique, just swipe it on your lids. Shade no.4 is my fave, it looks natural for yellow undertones and the texture is a cross between shimmery and pearlescent.
