I adore its cute cube packaging
Razzle dazzle glittery eyes...here i come!
Eye candy colors!
Palette#18
Pastel shimmery shades
The cute cube packaging is the first thing that caught my eye. I am sometimes guilty of purchasing makeups just because of how it looks like. It's like falling in love with a goodlooking person without bothering to get to know them first...hehe!
So off I left The Body shop carrying an item I'm not sure of yet I'm infatuated with. All i know is that I have a clear plastic cube with 4 tiny cubes of eyeshadows inside...its like having cubes within a cube. And I have 4 shades of shimmering colors that looks so pretty to the naked eye. With that i'm already sold!
When I got home, I immediately put to test my latest acquisition.
Pros:
-cute packaging
-pretty metallic colors
-can be used wet( for more intense color), dry( for lighter, sheerer effect)
-each cube could last for almost like forever
-colors are versatile, so can be blended together
-lasts all day
-doesn't crease
Cons:
-after awhile it can get a bit messy
-if your the "too lazy" type it can be quite a hassle to open one lid after another
-quite pricey
-not all the colors in the palette are to my liking
Overall:
It's a great eyeshadow! The color combination complements each other well. For daytime, I use it dry for that shimmery, light and sparkly glow. For nightime, in order to achieve a more dramatic look I apply it wet so that the color pops out even more. It also helps to make it last longer.
This is a great buy. When I tried it I realized I loved it even more. Now it's like falling in love beyond looks alone but with a deeper understanding and appreciation to it.:-)

What can I say? I am deeply disappointed in you!! :-( No pic to illustrate what the make up looks like on your face. hehe... So when will we see it? I love the turquoise color, I think that will look stunning.
Thanks for sharing and thanks for leaving a thought on my last post, love hearing from you!

i so get what you mean about packagings. :) i am quite guilty of that myself before.. not so often now that I've kinda wasted money too much. i prefer to get to know them better. :) hehehe!

Amiable brief and this fill someone in on helped me alot in my college assignement. Gratefulness you on your information.
I have one of those too. I often wear them wet, as you do get a much better colour pay off. It makes your eyes pop!

Also, I simply throw away the small lids. It makes so much easier!
