Kiss Me Heroine Make Jewelry Eyecolor in Yellow Sapphire and Beige Gold

Hi dearies!

A month ago, I attended a product launch by Kiss Me Heroine Make. I blogged about it two weeks ago (you can check out the details here). Anyway, the launch was all about the new Jewelry Eyecolor, which are shimmery eyeshadow palettes and I was able to take home two of the four shades available! Yippee!!!

Kiss Me Heroine Make Jewelry Eyecolor in Yellow Sapphire and Beige Gold

Each palette costs Php 595.00 and is available in Watsons and SM Beauty Makati, SM Beauty Manila, SM Beauty Dasmarinas, and SM Beauty Mall of Asia.

I've shared a little info about the palettes in my launch even post but now, I can be more detailed and I'll post some swatches for you to see the quality of the palettes! :)

The palettes are in pinks and neutrals. I learned from the launch event that these tones are quite popular in Japan right now. They currently go for the natural, bright look.

For additional info, there's an English translation of the labels on the packaging at the back of the palette.

According to Ms. Sayuri Igarashi, the beauty consultant and makeup artist from Heroine Make, Japan, “The Jewelry Eye Color make-up that comes in four special variants: Yellow Sapphire, Beige Gold, Pink Amethyst, and Rose Garnet; is super long lasting, water proof, tear proof, sweat proof and smudge proof, perfect for the busy and active Filipina,”

It comes in these plastic containers that are non-bulky and very simple. It's easy to carry around so it's travel friendly! The transparent part can let you see the shades of the palette so you're sure you get the color you want.


It comes with a two-end applicator. The thicker one for the base or light colors while the thin one can be used to line the eyes or add dark contours at the corners.


Now, for the fun part! I'll show you the closeup photos and the swatches of the palettes I currently have.

First is the Yellow Sapphire.


The colors are a mixture of warm sand and gold shades. Each color blends well with the next one. I think the palettes are combined that way for easier blending of the eyeshadows! I think that's great, especially for beginners! The lightest shade is for highlighting, the middle shade is for base, while the darkest is for contour and can even act as your eyeliner.

The shadows are also soft and not powdery so it won't make a mess when you're applying your eyeshadows. 

The creamy white shade is actually cream-based while the other three shades are powder eyeshadows. The cream one acts as an eyeshadow base to make the colors pop!

Here are the swatches!

The shades are very pigmented, even the cream shadow! The fine glitters make the colors fun and bright.

In this swatch below, I did two swatches of the powder eyeshadows. The left side is on its own while the right one has the cream shadow base underneath.
As you can see, with the cream shadow, the colors look fuller and bolder.

And when wiped with the towel, the darker colors with the cream base stayed better than those swatches without it.


I did the same procedure with the next palette:

Beige Gold

This is actually my favorite among the four palettes. I love pinkish nude colors!


See how pretty the shades are? They are so chic and I think the shades suit many women of any color.

These are the swatches

Did the same here—the left side is the swatch of the powder eyeshadow while the right one has the cream shadow base underneath.

When wiped, the one with the cream base stayed on better.

Although the cream base makes the shadows bolder and stick better on skin, I still experience some creasing because I have very oily skin (including the skin on my lids). So I still use a good eye shadow primer with the eyeshadows.

And before I finish the post, I'll share with you how I wear the eyeshadows (I like wearing my shadows with eyeliner).

Here's how I wear Beige Gold:
(I took quite a number of shots. Haha!)










And this is how I wear Yellow Sapphire:
(Still a lot of pics)








And that's all! The colors are so wearable and you can use it during the day whether you're off to school or work and even at night when you're off on a date! 

Which palette do you like better? I still want to try the other two shade, the Rose Garnet and the Pink Amethyst. :)


Cheers,
DAWN

  1. Oooh not bad. I like Beige gold more. It being smudge-proof is a long-shot but I think the sweat-proof and water-proof claims could be true. It's cheaper than the Kate Tokyo quad that's for sure.

    1. Yeah, it gets smudged easily if you put some force on the smudging. But it stays the whole day if I use a good primer. I'm currently using Dior.

  2. I want it all! When I saw the colors they released, I knew I had to get all of them since these colors are what I usually wear and I also use eyeshadow as eyeliner most of the time if not all the time :D

  3. These palettes looks gorgeous! I saw them the last few months in singapore but haven't picked up any because I have too many similar colors!

    1. I know what you mean. Even when I want to try more makeup, I end up not buying because I keep remembering I still have something similar at home. :P
