FOTD: 2 looks using the Sailor Moon x ColourPop eyeshadows



Hey there dollies!
I barely wear makeup these days but I thought it'd be fun to play with it a little and create 2 different looks using some these eyeshadows.
My makeup is never too dramatic, I try to keep things light and pretty, hehe. I tried to choose the shades I wouldn't normally go for, whch are mostly bright pink, yellow and orange. I'll list the rest of the products I used for each look.




If you want to read more about this palette, click here! There's a separate post dedicated to it with swatches and all that fun stuff.

Look #1


This first look is pretty natural even tho I used some bright colors on the eyes. That's why I wanted to keep the rest of it kinda neutral.

For the eyes I used "Justice" as a base and "Love" on the outer corner of the eye. And I applied some "Silver Miracle" to the lower eyelid to add a pop of shimmer. 
I have to say I love the shimmers in this palette.



Sadly, my camera barely catches the shimmers. 


Here are the other products I used along with the eyeshadows:



☆ Miniso Mini Pony Shell Makeup Base #02 Pink
☆ Mary Kay At Play Matte Liquid Makeup "Very light"
☆ Bissú Eyebrow Pencil "Lechero"
☆ Essence Velvet Matt Lipstick #23
☆ MAC Powder Blush "Flower"
☆ L'oreal Miss Manga Mascara "Black 373"
☆ Avon Super Definition Liquid Eyeliner "Black"
☆ Wet n Wild MegaGlo Highlighter Illuminatrice "Crystal High"
☆ Lime Crime Prep & Prime Makeup Setting Spray

Look #2


Even tho this look and the first one look pretty similar, the shades I used are completely different. I applied "Moon Castle" as a base, "Tuxedo Rose" on the outer corner to give it a pop of color and "Mare Serenitatis" in the lower eyelid.





Here are the other products I used along with the eyeshadows:


☆ MAC Studio Match Master Foundation SPF15 "NC25"
☆ Essence I ♡ Extreme Crazy Volume Mascara
☆ L.O.C.K. Color Lock n' Tap Cushion Blush "1 Coral Pink"
☆ Revlon Photo ready Rose Glow Primer
☆ Maybelline Colorsensational lipstick "875 Vivid Rose"
☆ NYX Eyebrow pencil "EP01 Light brown"
☆ Mary Kay liquid eyeliner "black"
☆ Wet n Wild MegaGlo Highlighter Illuminatrice "Crystal High"
☆ Lime Crime Prep & Prime Makeup Setting Spray

I've tried the other colors before because I do feel comfortable wearing gold and purple on my eyes. Let me know if you'd like to see some looks with those too.

☾ Sailor Moon X ColourPop | Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon Eyeshadow Palette | Review & Swatches

Have you ever felt happy about being an adult just because you get to spend money on things you'd enjoy having as a child but couldn't afford? That's kind of how I felt buying this eyeshadow palette. 



Hi there!

Earlier this month ColourPop came out with a collaboration with Sailor Moon. And, being the huge SM fan that I am, I just had to get it.


Sailor moon has been my all time favorite anime since I was a little girl, I know there are other makeup collaborations in Japan but they are super hard to find or just way too expensive. I knew this was my chance.

I literally spent a whole morning trying to find them. My original plan was to get the whole collection but it was sold out everywhere! Luckily I found mx.beautymkup on instagram and I was able to get the eyeshadows there.

mx.beautymkup gave me a great sevice, defo recommend it!

There's no need to say how excited I was (and still am) about this palette, it is just perfect. This is my first time trying ColourPop but I have to say this particular product is everything I expected.


Where do I start...?


This is the complete collection: Eyeshadows, liquid lipsticks, blushes and glitters. How cute are they? Plus, I loved the colors they have for everything! The lippies are my colors and the blushes... are just gorgeous.

But, we'll focus on the eyeshadows~

☾ Packaging

I'll try not to be too biased~ hehe.
Everything is pink with some holographic details. I love how the box has Usagi on the cover. Nothing too extra, holographic moons and the name of the product. Too cute!



My surprise was when I opened the box and looked at the palette, first thing I noticed was the funny looking changing picture of Usagi on the lid. So 90's!




Once you open it you'll see the eyeshadows and the name for each color.



It doesn't come with a mirror or brushes tho.

☾ Eyeshadows

Like I said, it comes with 12 different colors including matte neutrals, metallics and shimmers. All colors are bright and perfect for the Spring - Summer season!
Just by looking at them you can tell they represent the anime and the other scouts perfectly. And the names! OMG the names you guys! "Tuxedo Rose", "Silver Crystal" and "Luna" are some of them... my childhood heart is happy.



I've been trying some of the colors and pigmentation wise they are great. They also blend easily and don't fade away thoughout the day.
Personally, the shimmers are my favorites.


I admit some of the shades are not what I usually go for (such as "love", "justice" or even "tuxedo rose") but I've been having fun playing with them.

So, to end this here, I love them and I do think they were worth it. Not only as a fan, quality is great too. I still hope I can find the rest of the products in the future.

I'll go fight evil by moonlight now~ See you next time!! ♡
