AMW Reviews: Estee Lauder Pure Color Stay-On Shadow Paint (Halo)

Happy Monday AMW friends!
I had a wonderful busy weekend!  How was yours?

Today, I will be sharing a paint shadow from Estee Lauder.  I haven't really explored much on the eyes for months now as I've been very comfortable with whatever I have!  Urban Decay Primer Potion has always been my number 1 eye primer while it's inexpensive counterpart is still Etude House Proof 10 Eye Primer.

As for cream shadow base, I have my favorite MAC paintpots, Bobbi Brown Cream Shadows and a couple of shadow pencils!  Who would've thought after exploring Rustan's, I saw a tiny wonder from Estee Lauder counter?

Estee Lauder Pure Color Stay-On Shadow Paint

Shade: Halo

I always prefer to try natural colored paints as they are easier to work with especially for starters!

Estee Lauder says ---

Go from smoky to wildly intense with non-stop shadows lit with shimmer. Pure pigments in a creamy shadow. Light-emitting dimensional pearls create shimmer to high-metallic finishes. Finger paint it onto lids. Glides on quickly, wears infinitely—all day. 12-hour wear. Crease-free. Won’t fade.

Pros

• Glass pot.
• Creamier in texture.  Very easy to blend.
• Can help eyeshadow stay longer.
• Shadows look more vibrant.
• Does not crease on me.
• Halo gives my lid an instant "lift".
• Can be worn alone or applied underneath your choice of eyeshadow.
• Halo can double up as a skin brightener.
  

Cons

• If you prefer matte, the extra sparkles may not be your thing.
• Price.
  

Overall
Easy to glide on lid using fingertips or brush as it has a mousse-like texture.  Eyeshadow appears more vibrant and stays at least 2 hours longer than usual. 

Tips

• Work fast using your fingertips for lighter shades and better to use a brush for more precision if you opted for darker shades.
• Store in cool, dry place.
• Don't worry about the "uneven" "bubbly" look upon purchase due to high temperature here in our country.
• If you have extremely oily lids, use your favorite oil-control eye primer underneath and use this as an eyeshadow or a "tool" to create vibrant shadow looks!
• Halo can be used as a face highlighter, apply a tiny amount on your cheek bones with a dabbing motion.
• Store product in cool, dry place.
• Instead of dipping your fingers directly onto the pot, use a brush or spatula to prevent contamination.

Will I repurchase?
Yes.

To whom do I recommend this to?
Eyeshadow wearers who prefers to use a cream shadow underneath.  Works better on users with dry or normal lids.

Where to purchase and how much?
At local Estee Lauder counters priced at Php 1,250.00 (approx $28.00).

Swatch on arm: Halo

I prefer to use my ring finger in application.

This gives an almost natural effect with a tiny hint of sparkles. 

Eyes appear brighter wearing only Halo.
