Heyruna: palette

I had this for a year now, I guess. And this is my first and only eyeshadow palette because I think I wont' be needing another palette since I’m not really an eyeshadow person. I rarely use eyeshadow except for “super” special occasions. Besides, I still have quite a number of eyeshadow quads in my makeup kit.

The palette that I have is called Avant garde. It has a mixed of matte and shimmers eyeshadows.

Dollface says,

"Go color-happy with these bold matte and shimmer eyeshadows. Perfect for avant garde or high fashion makeup. Contained in a matte 9 x 6.5 inch case with two foam tip applicators and a mirror on the inside. Each pan is approximately sized at 0.6 inches (1.5 cm) in diameter, similar to a 10 centavo coin."

Ingredients:

Talc, Mica, Mineral Oil, Kaolin, Titanium Dioxide, Magnesium Stearate, Isopropyl Palmitate, Lanolin, Methylparaben, Propylparaben, BHT.
May contain: Mica and titanium Dioxide, Iron Oxides, Ultramarine Blue, Manganese Violet, Ferric Ammonium Ferrocyanide, Chrome Oxide Greens, Chrome Hydroxide Green, FD&C Red No.40 AlLake, FD&C Yellow No.5 Al Lake, FD&C blue No.1 Al Lake.

This palette caught my eyes since it is less than a thousand (Php 900 ONLY) and has 88 shades.

I got this on Supersale Bazaar in Rockwell but you can purchase it online HERE.

The eyeshadows are pigmented and stays the whole day even without primer! Yes, I admit, I don't have eyeshadow primer (for real!) but believe it or not, it stays the whole day on me, on my friends and on my twin.

Remember my sister’s graduation, I did her makeup look. Post HERE. I use this palette on her without primer, and it stays until the end of the day .

Long wait is over! Finally, here is my review on the palette I got from Luview through Korea Cosmetics!

Not long time ago, I did post a picture of me with half done face using Luview Palette on Korea Cosmetics page. I was just experimenting during that time that’s why I did not post it here. Anyway, I decided to share it with you now. So here’s the picture.. (left face no makeup, right with makeup)

Luview Palette:

Features

Four coordinating shades of velvety, shimmery color to create the looks you want, from lovely to sexy. Creamy, intense shadows build quickly, blend easily for lasting color. Wear them alone, as duos and trios, or layered together.

Highlight and dramatize your eyes with the shimmering shades

Silky lustrous powders transparently wrap the skin, allowing a seamless layering of pure color for a silky sheen and radiant finish.

Squalene ingredients helps forming of skin protection layer without dry

The palette has 4 shades:

Packaging:

Luview is always consistent with the packaging--- expensive looking packaging. It comes in a mirror-like packaging as shown in the picture. Red is just perfect for working women, and can fit young ladies like me.

Color selection:

The palette comes only in 4 shades, all are shimmery. And basically these shades are more suitable for day time look. I wish Luview Cosmetics would release a palette with different colors and I wish they would include a matte eyeshadow on the palette.

Pigmentation:

They’re decently pigmented but not as pigmented as Urban Decay or Coastal Scents. In my case, I tried swatching it few times to get the pigmentation I like for my eyes.

What I like about the eyeshadows is the shimmers, they are very fine. Also the shimmers helps brighten up your eyes and perfect palette for people who are aiming for everyday makeup look.

Tip: It’s important to have eye primer to make your eyeshadows last longer and to make it more pigmented. But I admit, I don’t have one since I don’t wear eyeshadows for everyday. But if you like to make your eyeshadows appear brighter, here’s my tip. Mix your eye cream with a lighter concealer then apply it like a typical eyeshadow primer.
