LOTD feat. Hello Kitty Makeup

A more complete range of Hello Kitty Makeup is now available in Watsons. The range is pretty comprehensive, which consists of compact powder, eyeshadow, blusher, lipstick, lipgloss, nail polish, mascara, eyeliner, brushes, etc.

Products I received:-

  • Kawaii Black Hello Kitty cosmetic pouch set [limited edition] >> Kawaii Duo Eyeshadow HK00-13 OR & TERREMagnetic Gloss HK18-03 Baby Lip
  • Hello Kitty Pretty Mascara HK03-04 INTENS' BROWN
  • Hello Kitty Blush HK10-04 LA HAVANE

Swatches: blush, mascara, lip gloss, duo eyeshadow [3rd shade at the right is mixed]

Hello Kitty Kawaii Duo Eyeshadow - $14.90

There are a total of 9 duos in matching or complementary shades to brighten the eyes with a single brush stroke. The shade I receive, is a pigmented duo of dark brown and antique gold. When mixed, it becomes a lovely shade of golden brown. The duo eyeshadow is not overly shimmery, and has a beautiful satin finish. It can used dry or wet.

The quality is pretty impressive, much better than expected. To be honest, I was expecting it to be either slightly chalky or gritty, with average color payoff. It was definitely a pleasant surprise when I first swatched the eyeshadow. The colors translated well on my lids. Even without using an eye primer/base, the eye color last the whole day without fading, flaking or creasing.

Hello Kitty Pretty Mascara - $18.90

It comes with a high tech double fiber brush, which claims to give double action length and extreme volume, for longer and thicker lashes.

It does thicken my lashes, giving slight lengthening effect. It coats and separates the lashes well too. No clumps at all. Since it's not waterproof, it doesn't hold the curls well. There's no flaking or smudging at the end of day though.

Available in 4 shades >> green, black, blue, brown.

Hello Kitty Blush - $17.90

It is a compact blush to brighten the complexion and sculpt facial features. The texture is ultra sheer, with a mineral pigment base.

Available in 5 shades. Mine is a warm rose brown shade. It has shimmers, but not obvious to the naked eye. Like the duo eyeshadow, it has a lovely satin finish.

Hello Kitty Magnetic Gloss - $18.90

The shade I receive, is a very shimmery baby pink. The color is very subtle. I like that the texture is non-sticky but dislike the sweet fruity scent/flavor. 

Available in 6 shades, either lacquered or iridescent. Mine is the latter.

Here's a really simple look I've created, using the above mentioned products.

Hello Kitty Diamond Gloss

Being a huge fan of the mouthless kitty, I squealed with delight upon receiving the Hello Kitty press kit from Star Asia.

A brief description of Hello Kitty [image credits to Google Search]

Hello Kitty Makeup, exclusively available at Watsons Singapore.

Hello Kitty Diamond Gloss comes in a cocktail of 7 fruity flavors, namely:- Lemon IncestOrange Mécanique, Strawberry Fields, Pink Paradise, Big Apple, Eau de coco, Blueberry Nights.

Retails at $12.90 each.

I received these 3 delicious flavors in my press kit - Lemon IncestOrange Mécanique, Strawberry Fields.

So sparkly! Aren't they beautiful?

Photographed best with sunlight!

They are housed in transparent bottles, so that you can easily see the acidulated colors of these glosses.

I like the idea of a roll-on applicator, coz it makes application so easy peasy. Simply glide the gloss onto lips... without the use of mirror.

Lemon Incest

PS: The name sounds soooooo wrong!!!! =.=zzz

Orange Mécanique

Strawberry Fields

Here's the lip swatch of Strawberry Fields. It gives the lips the right amount of shine (in my opinion), with a very slight hint of color. While the sparkly shimmer bits appear more concentrated in the bottle, they look pretty scattered on the lips.

My favorite flavor will be Orange Mécanique, coz it smells just like yummy orange candies. As for Lemon Incest Strawberry Fields, they smell just like lemon and strawberry candies respectively.

I'm glad to say that the gloss is neither sticky nor greasy. In fact, they feel pretty moisturizing. An instant savior for my dry-looking lips!

Beat the monday blues with these kawaii lip glosses
