Maybelline New Eye Studio LuminEyes Illuminating Eyeshadow Review

I was going out to attend a a fun and posh party 1st of October so I decided this will be the perfect time to use one of the Maybelline Holiday 2012 Collection, their New Eyes Studio  LuminEyes Illuminating Shadow.   I got the gray shade and it actually perfect for the look I was in the mood for that night.

What I think of it:

  • What more can I say but to tell you how I love everything about this eyeshadow especially the color gray as I can do the smokey eye look without having to appear like I got punched on the face.
  • I love the illuminating eye primer included in the palette as it does give the color more intense and long-lasting.
  • Color pay-off is really nice as well if you can see with the swatches I did that was only one swipe using the applicator provided.
  • I can’t wait to see how the other palette like Gold and Pink would look like on me!

Do I recommend this?
100%! It indeed is a perfect party makeup as it will surely last the night away unless you intentionally remove it. At Php599.00 per palette it is one of the Holiday 2012 makeup from Maybelline you should get!

How about you, have you tried this one already? How about the other shades?

Stay gorgeous everyone!
