Jill Stuart - Jewel Crystal Eyes - 05 Romantic Onyx - Pictures & Swatches
Went to HK and brought this too! Think I must be mad to spend so much money on cosmetics. What the heck.
This is Jill Stuart - Jewel Crystal Eyes - 05 Romantic Onyx. Think I brought it at S$71.

The eyeshadow is really smooth and easy to apply. As usual, this gives a very sweet look. If it is heavily layered, the dark grey colour can even double as an eyeliner. Not a big fan of the brush though. It will be better if you can use your own brush.
Jill Stuart - Blush Blossom - Pictures & Swatches
I couldn't resist getting my hands on Jill Stuart's latest blush and eyeshadow. But as it is not available in Singapore yet, I got someone to help me buy and courier over.
This is No. 1 Romantic Sweet Pea. Issn't this lovely? I love the princessy packaging with the nice little ribbon attached to the brush. This costs about S$70. It comes with 2 sides, the darker shade being the blush and the lighter shade being the shimmering powder to be dusked over the blush when applied. It gives a nice sweet and radiant glow when applied. Love it to bits.
The swatch is as follows:

MAC - Look in a box - Pictures & swatches
Got this in HK DFS at a 30% discount (costs about S$70), thanks to my friend! This is one of MAC's latest look in a box. The one I brought is titled "Frisky girl".
It comes with the following:
- From left to right
- Mascara (Zomm Fast Black Lash)
- Beauty powder (Pretty Baby)
- Blush (Well Dressed)
- Eyeshadow (Mercurial Mineralize Eye Shadow)
- Lipglass (Nymphette)
The swatches are as follows:
From left to right:
- Pretty Baby
- Well Dressed
- Mercurial
- Nymphette
I love the blush and beauty powder because they are quite sweet and easy for everyday use. The consistency is quite good in the sense that they are very smooth.
I can only use the beauty powder as a blush if I layer it alot as it is quite a light shade.
As for the eyeshadow, it is streaked with brown, gold and purple, so it gives a nice shimmery golden brown when applied.
But sad to say, I am not such a big fan of the mascara as it is not waterproof. Gave me panda eyes by mid-day.
Haven't got a chance to try the lipglass yet but it smells really good. It gives off a nice honey smell but not too cloy.
On an overall basis, I give this a thumbs up for the value-for-money factor as these items can easily cost S$30+/40+ on their own. Get this while it lasts! I remember still seeing some at Isetan Scotts yesterday.
