Haul KIKO (Water Eyeshadow #200 & #207 + Ultimate Pen Long Wear Eyeliner)

Hi beauties !

If you follow me on my social medias, you've seen that I shared with you a good deal Kiko : the Water Eyeshadow with -33% off. So, you get it, I couldn't resist ...

1. Water Eyeshadow :

• In shade number 200 : Champagne

          The eyeshadows Water Eyeshadow from Kiko are meant to offer a "chromatic effect", the shadow being wet or dry.
         Generally, no matter the eyeshadow that I use, I prefer using them wet because the color is always more intense and sometimes also because it makes them easier to apply. Concerning my eyeshadows of my palette Light Colors from Réserve Naturelle, it also avoids the powdery texture.
         The Water Eyeshadow are presented as having a "soft and creamy texture" and it is the case, which completely reduces the risk of fallouts since it's not really powdery.
         About the packaging I'm disappointed that we can't create a palette, because with the number of eyeshadows they've got, (32 shades just so you know), if you want a lot, it's a bit bothering I think, to have ten billions of little boxes ... Other than that, the box is really pretty and very resisting. So much that I even have difficulties to open it to say it all !

          With the number 200, Champagne, in one coat, you get a pretty sparkling veil, and with two, a champagne color that almost tend to a pinky gold.
          It's typically the kind of eyeshadow that can be put alone, just to sublimate the eyes and if you want, with some eyeliner to intensify the look. Or as a base, as a touch of light, anyway, it's the kind of shadow that you bring with yourself all the time because it does all kind of jobs ! (And if you are really lazy, get your finger a bit wet, take some, and hop, applied, it's done ! ;D)

          The perfect result in my opinion is to use it wet, which reinforce the almost metallic aspect that I love.

          The second eyeshadow, the number 207 : Sepia, is a kaki with taupe under tones. Taking a photo of the color ended up being more difficult than expected, the color always appeared more golden or taupe.
        It is by the way what's interesting with this eyeshadow which can really change its intensity depending on how much coats you apply.

          Applied dry, the eyeshadow seems more "ashen" which means a brown-taupe that tends to the kaki. However, once wet, the green appears more.
          Dry, it must be a perfect crease shadow for a brown, dark green make up, or as transition between two shadows. Still dry, you can also put it on the outer V. It will be perfect for a kaki smoky !
          Wet, you can leave it alone on the mobile eyelid for a kaki make up, (beautiful on brown eyes), or on the outer V to spice up your make up.

2. Ultimate Pen Eye Long Wear Eyeliner

          It's an eyeliner with a flet-tip, which appears to me very useful, and even more since the packaging has an "anti-slip" grip which is really helpful.

          The black is not the most intense one that you can find but it is more than correct ! The tip is useful to draw an adjustable line : thin, average to thick.

          What amazed me, is that the liner once dry does not move anymore, (as seen in my video test !). However, a bit of make up remover and hop ! The liner disappears in one movement : magical !

          Well, clearly, I'm not the liner queen, uh. But that's the point, I think that for someone who isn't used to use liner, who is not very comfortable with it, the shape "flet-tip" is super, because it makes the application easier than the very thin brush in a bottle. The gel liner to apply with a brush must also be another good alternative. In any case, the flet-tip, I think it's super useful !

◘ Bonus : 

          For the ones it interests, here are the INCI researchs of the composants that I made on the website La Vérité sur les Cosmétiques, to know the level of toxicity of the ingredients.
          For the eyeshadows, the two first images are about the composants and the two others about the composants that might be in it.
          If you didn't know it, the lists of composants are decreasing according to its quantity. An ingredient opening the list is very important in the product and the more you get down the list the more the quantity lessens.
