Kanebo Kate Dual Carat Eyeshadow 2.3g

My Humble Rating: YYYYY


My hot, hot, hot favorite eye shadow! However, those who detest shimmer, please avoid this at all means. I just love the range so much that I collect them (retailing at approximately SGD17) from Malaysia, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Japan since they are tragically not available in Singapore. Each compact comes with 2 colors, one darker than the other. There is one single-tip sponge applicator but no mirror provided. The cover of the compact has this octagonal see-through portion for convenience to differentiate one compact from another at one glance.

Coming to the most important point, the eye shadow's texture is smooth, color's not over-powering, shimmer's very fine (minute specks of glitter). If applied using a brush, one can create a light shimmery film on your eye lids. For a more intensive effect, use the sponge applicator to layer on pigment (Perfect for creating the mysterious smoky-eye look). I love the sheen it gives when I use the darker tone pigment to line my lower lash line.

Overall, one has to kill me to say anything bad about this product because I'm totally bewitched by the diamond-sparkles. If I have to state one, it'll be: Why is this great product not in Singapore?!
