It is our company’s read-end party again and I decided to come in a plain navy blue dress. I was thinking of having a neutral or pink makeup look but the overall look was too plain. I was running out of time when I headed to one of the malls to ask their salesladies if they would have a recommendation for a dark and bold eyeshadow product.

One of them presented me the Careline’s Shadow Palette (Color Paradise) which has a blue color in it. The blue matte and the blue glitter. I think the palette looks pretty decent so I bought it and immediately wore test.
Dry vs. Wet Palette
I tried using a dry brush and dry eyeshadow powder. The look was okay but it wasn’t the dark and bold blue I was looking for.

For the second test, I tried spritzing the brush with a makeup mist. I think I like the texture and pigment better than the dry one.
The Final Look
On the day of the event, I spritz the eyeshadow brush with makeup mist and add more glitter from the makeup stash I have.

With the help of setting spray, the eye look was locked all the duration of the event popping some color on my face.
Since there is a bold color on my eyelids, I opted to go lighter on the blush and the lips so the focus would stay on the eyes.
The Value for Money
I got this at P199 and I think it was not a bad purchase. It has a shelf life of 24 months and the color combination it has is unique from what I usually have. I will have its place on my makeup rotation.
I haven’t tried the other color combinations yet because this shade is so strong for an everyday makeup look but I would give them a try.
Rebuy or Regret
Regret. Not recommended as everyday makeup but if you are into striking makeup combos, then this is a good one.
