Daiso Shiny Eye Shadow review

Daiso Shiny Eye Shadow #5 Woody Gold

I usually don't get cheap cosmetics (anything under $5, ¥500) because I care about my skin. Cosmetics are already bad for your skin... if you get the cheaper ones, which are made of cheaper materials, it would harm your skin even more.

BUT... Daiso is a bit different... 1. It is Japanese (most, if not all Japanese products/brands have a certain quality control to their products, ensuring that it is safe for you), 2. Most beauty gurus who care about their skin have blogged about their products

Out of the few available I chose #5 Woody Gold, I liked the colour. Since it was Daiso, there wasn't a tester available, so I just had to guess what might suit me more.

product

The product is very simple, eye shadow on a stick, very easy to apply. All you need is a steady (or steady enough) hand to put the colour on your eye lids!

pigment on hand

Pros:

• strong pigment
• easy to use
• washable
• long lasting (you can use the product for a long time... many uses)
• very affordable (only ¥108)

Cons:

• easy to wash off
• not visible in every lighting (for this colour)

1. without 2. & 3. with eyeshadow in different lighting

I really liked the pigment, it is so pretty and it is visible on my eyelids. The only problem is that it isn't visible in EVERY type of lighting.

It is washable (which can be a good or bad thing), but if you don't "touch" it much, it would last you for quite a few hours... and it is very affordable!

lots of product

I really like this stick, it is easy to carry and very easy to use. I usually struggle with applying eyeshadows with a sponge, but using this stick was so natural. It was very easy to correct (just take a wet Q-tip[cotton bud]) and the mistake is fixed. I liked the colour, it looks natural but ads a special "shine".

I wished it was more repellent to water and the colour was visible in more lightings.

Score: 7.5/10
