Review: Jill Stuart Brilliance Eyes Glazed Garnet 06
Here is the review I promised you!
Colors: ALL of Jill Stuart's eye makeup is shimmery! This quad happens to include a light baby pink, a slightly plummy taupe, a dark silvery green and a beautiful dark plum-black (perfect for smokey eyes!). I love this quad for fall!
Packaging: It comes in a pink box and in the mirrorlike finish packaging adorned with a fake jewel. The back is essentially clear with a sticker stating Jill Stuart, 06 glazed garnet, and a few lines in Japanese. It comes with a double ended black sponge applicator.
Lasting Ability: This stuff lasts all day, over my trusty UDPP however! It's like shu uemura shadows in that they just don't come off!
Texture: It's soft and silky, but doesn't fly everywhere. Your brush can easily pick it up. By the way, like all Jill Stuart stuff, this is scented with Rose, so if you're sniff sensitive I would advise you to steer clear!
Pigmentation: The swatches above were taken with two light taps--that's how good these are! Don't overdose on the darker shades--you'll regret it!
Retails 1450 NTD in Taiwan, about 45.50 USD and 4,864.20 Japanese Yen. However, this retails for 61USD on ichibankao.com.
