I’ve never been a fan of eyeshadows till L’Oreal came into my life.
I’ve always associated eyeshadows with the beautiful magazine cover models and never with me. With me, if I put on eyeshadow, I will always almost look like I got punched in the eye (my attempts at smokey eyes) or my eye’s swollen (if I use pink or yellow) or I use the oh-so-common blue and make myself look like a prostitute.
Man, I was stuck in that phase for a good 10 years!
But anyhow, I have grown to learn about and love eyeshadows. With them, I can better achieve a very natural look and go from office to party. Max loves!
Recently, L’Oreal launched a new range of eyeshadows. Check them out here:
From L to R, the duo colour palettes are called Flare, Riotous, Showy and Flashy. So cute max the names! It’s also available in 4 other shades.
The liquid pencils on the left are L’Oreal’s new HiP Color Chrome Eyeliner are Gold Charge and Violet Volt – intense and metallic, these provide an interesting new kind of definition to my eyes.
There’s also a new primer called Base Magique which promises to make your face a beautiful base on which to put on your makeup. Smoothing wrinkles, fine lines, hides pores and skin imperfection, this is something I never used before but something I am definitely looking forward to using. No need to use Gaussian blur on photoshop for my photos anymore hopefully! :P
Here are my two favourite colours. :D
I usually go for light, natural makeup look and gold’s my ultimate favourite.
I love it!! It brightens up my eye completely. The dark orangey gold is a really intense and lovely colour. The colour you see on the palette is really exactly what you’ll get on your eyelids. Prettyy!!
Simple and so easy to apply. The colours are really intense and a light dab would do the trick. I have not given it the FULL DAY test challenge (i.e: Will the colours stay as intense after one full working day? Note: My eyelids are max oily!) but I will and update here! :)
Here’s the complete makeup look.
HiP High Intensity Pigements Bright Shadow Duo @ $18.90
HiP Color Chrome Eyeliner @ $17.90
The HiP collection will only be available for a limited period at Watsons!
L’Oreal is also another great brand who has ventured out onto Facebook to connect with their consumers like you and me! Let’s give them some support here!
