Tokidoki ADIOS 6 Piece Set

My hubby got me the Tokidoki ADIOS 6 Piece Set for Valentines' Day present! He noticed I've been eyeing it for so long, he got it for me! Imagine the excitement! I was literally jumping up and down when I opened the present. More about my V'day can be found here.

A look at the box design.

What lies with ADIOS?

Excited me.

Unveiling the beauty gadgets within. So scary to open his head...

The range of products found within.

So here's my little review about the products found in the set...

1) Cromatico Eyeshadow (Nancy Rocks)

The eyeshadow come is inspired by the Tokidoki character Nancy Rocks and it comes in a Tokidoki-logo shaped compact. I love the holographic purple hue and it suits my olive skin tone very well. The colour is easily shown even with just one brush stroke. I would say go with a bold eyeline for that futuristic feel.

Here's a little video on how to use the eyeshadow...

2)  Perfetto Eyeliner (Sabochan)

This is Sabochan.

I would say the eyeliner is marker type. Using the tip, you can get fine thin lines and if you slant it and draw using the side, you can get the perfect thick eyeline for cat eyes. The eyeliner is easy to remove, does not stain the eyelid and is also smudge proof!

3) Prisma Lip Gloss (Ciao Ciao)

Ciao Ciao herself.

What better way to pair Adios with Ciao Ciao? They are literally made for each other!

The lipgloss is a transparent pink lipgloss that brightens your lips. A tinge of strawberry smell makes you wana lick your lips! The lipgloss does not feel sticky, so go ahead and get your pouty lips some "action". I would say this lipgloss is a must get, use it on it's on or on top or any lip colour.

4) Fantastico Lip Stain (Carnivora)

I'm usually not a fan of colours that are too dark for my lips, but as this is a lip stain, the colour seeps nicely into my lips. The lip stain is like a marker, so I could get the colour to the corner of my lips easily without the help of a lip brush. Carnivora is a matt plum colour and I can get enough coverage with just one swipe. It doesn't feel dry and it has a berry taste to it! The lip stain does not feel sticky, it's almost like wetting your lips and dry in a few seconds leaving your lips with a beautiful shade of plum. Try it!

 That's the end of the review. I will post up the makeup video I did using these products. Stay tuned!

XOXO,

Vancouver Hauls - Tokidoki Devil Girl Cromatico Palette

A pic with Simone Legno when he was in town last year.

I bet everyone would know I'm a HUGE fan of Simone Legno, the cute Italiano behind the brand Tokidoki.

Mischief abounds in the magical world of tokidoki, where one glance is never enough. Creator and Italian artist Simone Legno brings his cult-favorite designs and colorful interpretation of life to a new makeup and accessories line that exposes the criminally cute and irresistibly edgy sides of beauty. Presented exclusively at Sephora, this Japanese-inspired collection captures the true spirit of tokidoki: Every day brings another opportunity to dream.

I've been trying to get my hands on the Tokidoki cosmetics at the local Sephora but it was swept up within hours. It got me sulking for months and can you guess my super excitement when I saw this booth at Vancouver's Sephora?!

I already bought a super lot of things for myself and when I saw this palette, I couldn't bear to let go. I wanted to buy them all, but budget was tight and this palette was bought after a long time "begging" my hubby to get for me...

Cute right?!

It's a sailor/underwater theme, so you can find characters chilling at the beach, shades, sharks, beach girls, etc on the palette.

Even the pouch is transparent blue, so beach ready right?!

Check out the zip! Tokidoki logo!

Ready to see the colours?

Ta Da! It's like watching a theater show.

Like all Tokidoki palettes, a zipper toy is included in the middle and this one comes with Devil Girl listening to her iPod? :)

The Tokidoki Devil Girl Cromatico Palette comes with six eyeshadows: Thirsty (cream), Riposino (Shimmery light brown with glitter), Bulleto (shimmery dark brown), Nancy Rocks (Shimmery Purple), Bruttino (Pearl Turquoise), and Carina (Pearl white).

 I know alot of you would love the left side (brown) of the palette but for me, it's definitely Nancy Rocks and Bruttino that caught my eyes. Come on! Huney is known for her colourful eyes!

So here's a look that I did with the palette:

A little breakdown on how I got the look. 

I'm still trying out the palette for more looks and I promise to post them as soon as I got the photos ready k?

In fact, in my mind now is maybe I should bring this palette along for Simone to sign at STGCC this August? I think I'll do just that!

XOXO,
Christina aka Huney
