A lot of eye shadows of different brands ranging from expensive to not-so expensive to cheap nowadays. With ladies like me spending quite a lot on different make up tools and products, e/s is the last thing in mind to over spend. Especially with a lot of us out there who are quite unsure on how to apply shadows. That is why I thought of doing a bit of my personal research and reviews on affordable e/s and how well they perform.
VOV Eyeshadow in Color No. 0201
(approx. Php 89.75 prices depends on sales promotion and discounts)
This is how it looks like the back side, they don't have the color names
but the sales lady do have their own names written
I rubbed the e/s using my finger and this is how the color looks like on my skin
My hand as a swatch below....
Askmewhats says ---Ok ok, if this is a BLAH color for you guys, well let me explain (defensive eh? hehehe). The reason why I bought this color because, I want a neutral color to serve as my E/S base. And of course, this is a first for me to purchase VOV, just in case this won't work out, at least, it's still a safe color to use.
Pros ---- Very affordable
- Have a lot of colors to choose from
- It's packaging is simple, yet it doesn't look cheap
- Blends easily
- Lasts half a day (based on dry skinned test)
Cons --- (I really don't have much right to complain because of its affordable price, but, I still do have something to say, hehehe spare me...)
- As seen in the photo above when rubbed with my finger, there's a bit of bumps so its not TOTALLY smooth, but in VOV's defense, if I used an e/s brush, it's application is quite smooth.
Tips ---- With this nice neutral color, you can use this as a highlighter (for the eyes) applied just below the browbone
- You can use this color as an overall highlighter for the face as well
Will I repurchase?Yes, different colors
Your askmewhats,
Nikki
