I first heard about this brand way back in college when my bff Paris came rushing to our house one day and the first thing she told me was about this clearance sale at beauty bar and it included dark foundations. to my shock as i never ever had a good chance of finding my shade match in this country, i came rushing down to Eastwood City with my sister and wow my eyes wanted to fall out of my skull in delight. i ignored these eyeshadows because i was eyeing the foundations and creme concealers but they only had a few stocks left (stupid lady said it was discontinued turned out  it wasnt discontinued) i bought every stock left of that foundation concealers in that store branch to stock up for the future (well there was only 2 left). meanwhile i just picked a few eyecolors (5) and these were the ones i got. after i came home and tried them i just cant believe how good these are, so pigmented and though its powder, it glides so smoothly more like cream.

At the time i was already into cosmetics but never did i have knowledge of branding and pricing etc.i dint even know what mac was lol, ill say these are better. a pot of these baby lasts for years and years and i used these everyday ever since i started working and doing freelance make up services and as u can see in the pics above i havent even touched a fraction of each pan (except for the black which fell and had broken into a million pieces, the sage fell too but i manage to keep it intact by pressing.)

The color pay off is excellent, long lasting and very very pigmented, pics above shows the shades and was swatched by itself dry and without any sort of primers, use wet and the intensity of these are way way better and yes better than mac pigments ive tried so far, especially the matte ones still glides like cream on my skin. i love the the sage one in the middle, the marigold i often use as nose eyes highlighter its the most sheer out of the bunch and the most  economical to use as a little goes a long way. I will repurchase these if i had the chance why not, but shipping costs an arm and a leg if i get it shipped from France, hope the brand will relaunch here in manila ill be the happiest girl :D

price on the wesite is US$23.00 each

lovely i got them only for  400php each or US$10.00 i guess im lucky that day

xoxo
