ICED BERRY BLEND LAURA GELLAR BAKED IMPRESSIONS EYE PALETTE - SWATCHES AND REVIEW

I purchased the Laura Geller Iced Berry Blend Baked ImPRESSions Eye Palette from Hautelook. It is a trio of pink and purple eyeshadows made up of a muted pink, a lilac purple and a muddy purple. The eyeshadow palette retails for $14.00 USD and it contains .23 oz of product. The eyeshadows in the palette can be applied dry for a softened work appropriate look or applied wet for a richer, more dramatic look. The wear time for the Iced Berry Blend palette was about ten hours before I experienced some slight fading.

87 SAKURA CHANEL JOUES CONTRASTE POWDER BLUSH - SWATCHES AND REVIEW

Another item from the JARDIN DE CAMELIAS spring collection (US - online only / ASIA exclusive) is the Chanel Joues Contraste powder blush in 87 Sakura. This warm salmon pink blush comes in the baked formula which is available worldwide except in the US. The baked formula only contains .14 oz of product and is currently priced at $45.00 USD.

I found the baked formula to be much more chalky and it had an extremely powdery finish. I had to use a stiffer blush brush because it was so much harder to apply and it seemed less pigmented. Sakura does contain subtle micro glitter but it isn't very noticeable once applied. It does have a really strong rose scent which might bother some but overall it is a fairly nice blush to have in your makeup collection; especially for the Chanel blush collector.
