Every face is unique. Simple, clean and light makeup style suits me best. Undeniably, appropriate makeup could be necessary for complexion enhancement and incorporates the entire outfit, especially eye shadow plus mascara for awaken and shaper eyes. However, a radiant complexion is most crucial to enhance other point makeup.

  

My previous purchase of Shiseido Majolica Majorca BE286 is a year ago and it has been dumped aside long ago for the color has to be used as a base together with deeper shade which I don’t own one. My new love Kose Esprique Precious looked better on me.

Fragrance free, powdery texture, easily pick-up and spreading, non-drying, good shimmering effect, buildable pigmentation, no smudging and long-wearing without obvious fading. The shimmers would fade off some over time, but the pigmentation was still visible at the end of the day. I liked all of it so I’ve no complaint basically, except the packaging lid fell apart after a short period. For photo taking purpose, my testing below was heavy-handed, in real life I use lighter finger and gently dab on the eye shadow only.

 

 

I bought BE310 for base and BR311 for inner eye lid, but I also use BE310 for highlighting. When I never had typical panda dark circles, for unknown reasons, my left eye has a visible blood stream dark circle (especially I’ve little saggy eye bag now) under eye. Looks acceptable normally, except I’ve no enough 8 hours sleep.

 

who want buy me an eye cream?

In Thailand, Esprique Precious Eyecolor Selection N is available at all Kose counter, retails THB 300 for 1.4g each color, quite reasonable priced for it’s a counter brand.
