Heard of Pupa, yes? Regardless, this post is all about Pupa. I'm a huge fan of their Luminys Baked Eyeshadows (esp. the limited edition ones) AND Multiplay Eye Pencil (Black in particular - doesn't smudge or budge once set!). Pupa is such an underrated brand, in my opinion. If you haven't venture into Pupa makeup, you're clearly missing out (:
A month ago, I attended Pupa Makeup Launch, with the star product being its all-new Vamp! Mascara.
A whole lot of Pupa makeup for us to play with... can you imagine my very delightful face?! Me & Chantana were happily swatching away hehehe~ That explains the excessive pics in this blog post. Well, enjoy the pics :D
The illuminating powder created thanks to the innovative "oven baking" technology", which bestows a very light and soft texture to the product and a truly extraordinary result.
Four coloured stripes, tone sur tone, which can be used either singularly of mixed.
Pupa Luminys Baked Face Powder
Evens out skin with a sheer effect and conceals imperfections, giving skin a natural colour.
The result is velvety soft, smooth skin. Imperceptible and light, extremely pleasing to touch and apply. The production technology behind baked products ensures: optimal softness to the touch, maximum effect when applied and maximum hold.
Pupa Luminys Duo Baked Eyeshadow
A game of contrasts and chromatic harmonies, with an endless number of matching possibilities for a multitude of effects. A pure, pearly colour eyeshadow that comes with an intense tonalized light one, with which you can play to create the most original make-up looks.
Dry is pure colour, sophisticated and ultra bright, wet is intense, extra pearly colour.
Perfect also as an eyeliner. Its soft and silky powder has a great hold and lasts long.
An extraordinary result thanks to its advanced oven baking technology that enhances all properties of colour, ensuring maximum performance in application and hold.
Luminys baked Eyeshadow is a concentrate of pigments and precious pearls, which can be used either wet or dry, to find the desired intensity. Use it dry for a delicate and bright result, and wet for an intense and pearly effect. Vibrant colours and spectacular effects for surprising, seductive and hypnotizing eyes.
The result? An impeccable make-up.
Hypo-allergenic and ophtalmologically tested.
Here are the swatches. I didn't swatch 'em all (too many!). Only dry-swatched those colors which called out to me :P
They swatched on so smoothly and shows up beautifully without the use of an eye primer. If you prefer an intense party look, go wet! You'll be amazed, trust me.
See the pretty teal swatch? It's Pupa Multiplay Eye Pencil 03. It's a triple purpose eye pencil: versatile, very handy and perfect, glides on effortlessly. Long lasting and waterproof, delivers amazing performance, for intense and captivating eyes. Many other colors to choose from!
Not forgetting the lip products... looks good right?

ntense colour and long-lasting shine. Soft, moisturizing texture for surprising, perfect colour release with a single stroke; extreme comfort.

See my bare lashes get transformed instantly. I attended the launch event with bare lashes, coz I wanna try this new mascara! Anyway, the 1st coat of mascara (pictured left) was Amethyst Violet. Then, I layered on Electric Blue (pictured right). BOOMZ!
See what Pupa mean by exaggerated eyelashes with an oversize volume. They mean what they say! My lashes look so fake... in a good way of coz! And, the mascara feels almost like nothing on my lashes. Super lightweight! I'm not exaggerating. Really. It's seriously the BESTEST EVER VOLUME MASCARA I've ever used so far! Absolute holy grail status ♥
I think you get what I mean, judging from the picture above (;
Pupa Luminys Touch, also one of the newly launched products. Reminds me of YSL Eclat Touche.
An illuminator that is also a concealer, it captures light, giving immediate brightness and glow to those shaded areas of the face. An extraordinary formula with P-LB COMPLEX, that has been studied to combine a flawless make-up result with an effective treatment: a complete beauty action that helps improve face brightness, reducing the appearance of dark circles around the eyes.
