my palette review
Hey everyone! It has been another week and it's time for me to write another post!
As some of you might have known, innisfree, the famous Korean cosmetics and skincare company has released the item called 'My Palette'!
What it does is that you can choose a case of three sizes, small, medium and large. Each case has a magnetic base that you can customize your entire palette with whatever you need.
And it also comes with a huge selection of eyeshadow (matte, shimmer and glitter), blusher (cream and powder), highlighter (cream and powder) and contour, and also concealers.
I was looking for some orange-red color of eyeshadow because I've been missing the maiko look that I had in Japan. I thought of getting the palettes from Etude House because they are honestly so so SO pretty, but there are also many colors on the palette that I don't use because I personally have quite an amount of earth-color eyeshadow shades and I don't want any of those anymore, which was why I am really loving innisfree's idea of a customized palette where you can pick your favorite shades.
Also, lucky me! When I was in one of the innisfree outlets, there was a promotion where I could get a rectangle product (highlighter/contour/blusher) with the purchase of a small case (that could put four squares/ two squares + 1 rectangle/ 2 rectangles) plus two squares! I have also been missing the cream blusher that I got from canmake (I really love canmake but there isn't a branch in Malaysia, and the items that I want from Japan aren't retailed in KL) so I was like "yes this is my chance!" and I bought them right away!
The case comes in four pattern, an ordinary pattern, and three limited edition designs. I got one of the limited edition designs (since they happen to have the same price) and I think the designs are adorable, and the original is just... plain (but not in a bad way).
And above is what I got (I used the product before taking a photo LOL) from innisfree! I got their matte eyeshadow #34, glitter eyeshadow #14 and cream blusher #2 because those are the colors I wanted to try on. I have no interest in getting highlighters or concealers because the colors aren't really suiting my skin (either too light or too dark ;;) as well.
Although #34 looks like dark red here, but when I apply it, it gives a orange-red tint that I like. As for the blusher, the color is slightly more orangey compared to my Canmake cream blusher #14. As for the glitter #14, you might think it's pinkish, but the glitters are gold in color. Their shimmers are nice too, but I wanted to use glitters for the middle of my eyelid (and also my lip!) so I checked out with the four items at RM78.
I tried wearing them and went for a shower (without a primer). The blusher went off as soon as I finished washing my hair, while the eyeshadows were actually still intact (some fell off, but the colors are still visible). I also tried the cream blusher on my lips while topping some #34 in the middle for a gradient color (don't judge me I just wanna play with the colors in the shower) and then putting some glittery #14. I tried kissing on the mirrors and the tissue papers, and the products didn't go off too much. Though I'd say that they aren't waterproof.
To rate the products, I'd rate the concept of customizing a 4.5/5 because there are still some shades that I hope to find but I couldn't find, but the ability to customize freely makes me very glad. As for the products themselves, I'll rate 3.5/5 for the blusher because it goes off so easily, and 4/5 for the eyeshadows because I could see that they wouldn't last for long hours as well. Though I think they can be improved with primers.
That's all for now! Until next time!
I got my customized palette from Innisfree!
