EOTD: Maquillage Eyes Creator PK766

Shiseido sent me their new Maquillage Eyes Creator PK766 palette from the new Spring 2010 collection to review. You can see my earlier swatches of all the five new palettes here.

The palette consists of three powder eyeshadows, a cream base (#1), a cream liner (#5) and dual-ended sponge and brush applicators. Of the eyeshadows, #2 is the "Clear Colour", #3 is the "Shadow Colour" and #4 is the "Flash Colour". The individual pans can be actually be removed and swopped with the single eyeshadows in Maquillage's lineup.

The powder eyeshadows all have a lovely soft pearl shimmer. The texture is very silky and refined without being too powdery. There are also no obvious glitter bits.

The cream base in PK766 is more shimmery compared to the cream base in the other four palettes. It spreads easily to form a smooth canvas for the powder eyeshadows.

For this look, I brushed the pearl white shade over the browbone area, then used the sponge applicator to apply the pale gold shade in the crease and the peachy shade from the upper lashline to the crease as well as along the lower lashline. Then I used the angled flat brush applicator to line the upper lashline with the dark brown cream liner and finished off with a coat of ModelCo mascara.

I liked how smoothly the eyeshadows applied and the soft shimmer which helps to brighten up the eye area. Made my eyes look much more awake! There was also no fallout on my cheeks and the eyeshadows lasted well over several hours of wear. The cream eyeliner applied very smoothly as well and I liked how the angled brush was able to draw a very fine winged line. However, the lasting power of the cream liner was not as good as the eyeshadows. There was some creasing and fading of the liner at the inner corners after about 4 hours.

Overall, I liked the combination of the shades which gives a sweet, fresh feminine look that is perfect for the spring season. The comprehensive nature of the palette means that it is very convenient for touch-ups on the go or for travel, as you do not need to bring separate brushes or primer.
