Visee Blooming Eyes PU-2 Review and EOTD

Today's EOTD is using the Visse Blooming Eyes PU-2 that I got as a gift from Shihoco san from Pladge Blogspot. Thank you Shihoco san! This palette is, I believe, a limited edition item. The design on the case is really beautiful, as is the embossing on the eyeshadows. Unfortunately, I didn't take a picture of it before I used it. I tried doing my makeup according to instructions on the plastic box that the case comes in. However, it was too pale on me and I looked a bit washed out, however, I think that if I applied the colors the same way that I did today, it would have been okay. I decided to combine it with a couple other colors, one of which is pretty much a standard for my daily makeup.

The eyeshadows themselves are quite nicely pigmented, but quite typical of Japanese eyeshadows in that they are lighter in color. The shadows feel nice and silky and I really didn't experience any fallout.

Primed eyes with Painterly. From the Visee palette, the pink/peach color from crease line to eyebrows, the silver color from crease line to just under brow bone. Sushi flower on entire eyelid from lash line to just above crease line. The dusty medium brown color from the Visee palette from middle of eye to outer corner of eye from lash line blending to above crease line and lightly blending in contour area toward inner eye. The darkest brown color in the Visee palette is actually a cream liner, however, the feel of it is kind of a powdery cream so I used it as a shadow instead of a liner on my upper eyelid. I created a sideways "V" in the outer corner of my upper eyelid and blended inward on the fold. Here's where my EOTD nearly became a fail because I thought that I could also lightly blend it in the contour area of my just under my inner eyebrow area. Unfortunately, it didn't blend as I wanted it to so to "erase" the darkness of it, I applied more pink/peach and silver shadow over it but it didn't quite do it because then I looked washed out the way that I do when I use pastel colors in the contour area. So out came my trusty MAC Neutral Pink and I applied that in the contour area and it gave me enough color so that I don't look washed out. Whew! I also used the dark brown liner shadow to line the outer half of my lower lash line and the pink/peach color to line the inner half of lower lash line. Blend the colors well in the center where they meet. Lined my upper lash line with K-Palette Real Lasting Eyeliner and Talika Lipocils on my eyelashes.

Hey BV, if you look carefully, right in the crease line it's

kind of dark. That's the Mezaik stretch fiber. It kind of showed up

more than normal in today's EOTD. If I closed my eyes, you would

be able to really see it.

I'm so glad that I was able to fix my mistake because I truly didn't want to redo my makeup. I really like this Visee palette. Thank you again Shihoco san for the wonderful gift!
