Xmas 2009: Lavshuca Custom Select Eyes & Jewel Lip N (Color)

Lavshuca released a cute eye/lip palette 2 years ago (2 versions) and last year their Limited Edition Xmas coffrets last year were quite nice, too (a gloss and a shadow duo in a cute little drawer box).


This year we see a bunch of new eyeshadow duos along with new lipsticks so everyone can pick their colors rather than getting a set with some colors you might like or not.

The new Custom Select Eyes are really tiny but I don´t mind as with 18786796708798 shadows I am never going to finish any of them anyway :P The Jewel Lip N lippies are also tiny so you get some cute miniature cosmetics to play with =P

-Custom Select Eyes:


These come in a cute little "drawer" compact just like the Majolica Majorca single shadows. You get 2 colors, usually 1 highlighter and 1 lid color.
Texture and pigment-wise these shadows are nice. Not overly silky but not powdery either so there is nearly no fall-out during application (fall-out is no problem for me in general though as I do my eye makeup prior to my face makeup).


The colors usually have a pearly finish with fine shimmer.

I got the following colors:

PK-1: pretty dusty rose plum and light pink


BR-2: brown and gold


BR-3: My fave duo. contains a deep cool brown and a cream color.


-Jewel Lip N (Color):
I didn´t like the older version of the Jewel Lips that much but I think the new one is much nicer (as in softer and more moisturizing). I got 2 colors, a nice rose beige (RS-4) and a deep cranberry shade (WN-1) and think both are equally pretty.


These feel comfortable to wear and last decently (about 3 hours) on me.
Both colors have a satiny finish with a slight glossiness. Very pretty!


There is also the "Shine" series but I didn´t pick up any of the shades as they looked rather glittery online.
These products can be found in Facial-shop, Ichibankao and I am sure some other online shops should carry these, too.


All in all the Lavshuca Xmas collection is pretty nice and worth picking up!
