[SWATCH] East meets West


Hey all~!
It's me again!!

keke~

This post will be featuring 2 brands namely my favorite MAJOLICA MAJORCA (Japan brand) and my new found crush SLEEK (UK brand).


Click on picture to access their official website.


MAJOLICA MAJORCA




SLEEK

So which do you prefer? 
The ever so cutesy MAJOLICA MAJORCA or the sleek SLEEK? (hahaha)


I wont be doing an in-depth review on the products.
Instead i will be doing a swatch on the colours of their eyeshadow palette and blusher.


As you can see it is really easy to differentiate which are from which brand right?
The importance of packaging!


I will be doing swatches for the items here.


Puff de cheek in PK303, PK301 and OR302 (left to right)
Jeweling eyes in BR631 and PK330.


i-Divine palette in oh so special and sunset.
Blusher in Pomegranate.

Disclaimer: My camera sucks so the colours are not 100% true to how it looks in real.


Let's start of with MAJOLICA MAJORCA's products.




Puff de cheek

The blushes are super easy to use and are effortless to apply.
Not forgetting that the packaging is to die for! It comes with the cute matching puff. 



Jeweling eyeshadow

Super glittery eyeshadow which i can never seem to hit the pan.


Fairly simple colours great for eyeshadow beginners like myself!


Advancing to my new crush~ SLEEK


Look at that! isnt their packing apt to their brand name?
Classy black.
Also i love how cheap it is with so many colours!!!! 
Each comes with a nice big mirror~


Blusher pomegranate

SUPER PIGMENTED blusher! However it is on the shiny side (not good for people with oily skin like me)
But this is a colour i have never tried out before~ Interesting!


Oh so special palette + blusher swatch

I find the glittery colours much more pigmented than the matt ones! but i use the matt colours more often!\
(light matt colours almost invisible here. sorry x_x )


Sunset palette

All the shadows in this palette are SUPER PIGMENTED (once again) and BOLD.
However i find these colours more difficult to work with. Hence i reach out for the oh so special palette more.
Yes i am a boring person with small eyes without any crease to work on.


The texture of the eyeshadow in MAJOLICA and SLEEK are similar in terms of smoothness but the ones from SLEEK are softer. (i dont know if it is a good or bad thing)


I am rather amazed with the SLEEK make up as it is a drugstore brand which absolutely are of great quality! They are at 9.99 pounds in UK. I got mine at S$17 for 12 colours seriously it is VERY worth the price! Blusher at S$11.90.

Compared to the super princess-y MAJOLICA at S$25.90 (before sale). 
Blusher at S$24.90?? (i forgot)
Having said that, i will not stop supporting pretty MAJOLICA~~ hahaha


I cant wait to try out more products from SLEEK!! 
Time to save money yo! T.T


Ok a rather boring post so i shall stop here now!

Good bye~
