NARSissist Eyeshadow Palette

I just wanted to do a quick review on the NARSissist Eyeshadow Palette. It has 15 earth tone eyeshadows, it is .003 oz each and the costs is a CA$ 85 at Sephora's website.
今次想好快咁講吓呢個 Nars 既眼影組合， 無錯，又係另一個品牌出既 earth tone 組合， 佢係由15個 0.003 oz 既眼影組成。成為 CA $ 85 

.

Well as I mentioned in my blog before, I love palette because with a discount prices and I will have lot of different range of color, also I don't need lot of space to store so many single eye shadows
其實我之前都講過，我係好鐘意買組合既人， 因為價錢會平d, 又可以一次過試佢地好多不同既顏色，最緊要係我可以慳番好多位。

Package is same as the blush palette which they launch before and sold out every where. It is the traditional Nars black design but just in bigger size. It is a very solid package and comes with a big mirror. This palette main theme is earth-tone colors, a very good variety from matte, shimmery and frost finished, color beige, nude pink, plum, warm brown, cool brown and even black color. The range of the colors are very wearable.
包裝其實同佢地去年推出既限量版胭脂組合一樣，都係黑色包裝設計，同普通眼影既包裝一樣，只係 size 大左。呢個組合係有一塊好大既鏡，眼影都係以大地/neutral 為主。有啞,閃粉同銀底，顏色有米白色，淺粉紅色，膚色，不同既咖啡色系同埋黑色。

All of these shades actually are exist in the NARS line, and they've listed the names on Sephora's site. So if you love one special shade, you can by it individually.
其實呢個palette d 顏色都可以喺 Nars 到買到，如果你試過之後，鍾意邊隻色都可以單獨買，所以買 palette就有呢個好處。

I don't have lot of NARS eyeshadows, so I can't really compare the quality between the single and the duo eye shadow, (the last product that I owned is the blush palette that I got it last year.) In order to show the real color on some light shade, you need to apply the eye shadow primer. All the very light shades in this palette are very light / almost nude on my skin, a little bit chalky but acceptable on the matte light one. The mid-tone and deeper shades are seem pretty pigmented.
我自己本身唔係有好多佢既化妝產品，所以都比較唔到佢地雙色或單色眼影既質地。最近我都係買左佢地既胭脂限量版組合，質量唔錯。我嘗試用唔同方式去試呢個組合，淺色既眼影始終都係要用眼影打底膏，顏色先會比較顯色， 其實呢幾隻淺色，用係我眼上，係好淺色，只可以當光影粉使用; 致於深色，就好顯色，無咁既問題。

The swatches is not base on eye shadow primer.

以下呢 d 試色係無用眼影打底膏。
From the first row, it is All About Eve #1,  Madrague #2, Fez, Bali, Coconut Grove

From the swatched, you can see All above Eve #1 and Madrague #2 don't show any color pay off on my skin tone. I love the Fez, this is a copper bronze with a frost finished, the best pigmentation in this palette
其實 Eve #1 同 Madrague #2 對於我既膚色黎講都係唔多出色，都係用作打亮眉骨。我好鍾意 Fez, 銀底古銅色，超級顯色！

Second Row : Madrague #1, Nepal, Ashes to Ashes, Brousse #2, Mekong
Again, Madrague #1 is very nude on me, you can tell little bit chalky but acceptable. I like Nepal in this row, it is a soft rosy Gold with a frost finished.
Marriage #1, 都係好淺色啦， 有小小飛粉。呢行，我就鍾意 Nepal, 佢係一個淺玫瑰金色， 好靚。

Third row: Bellissima #1, Lhasa, Bad Behavior, Dogon #2, Pandora #2
Bellissima #1, even though is a sheer shade for me again, but I really like the sparkle finished, looks good for inner corner. I like Bad Behavior in this row, a strong gun metal with very good pigmentation.
雖然 Bellissima #1 又係一個好淺色同透明既顏色，但係佢好閃，用喺眼頭就啱唒！另外，呢行我就鍾意 Bad Behavior, 好有 cool feel ,又顯色。

Overall, eye shadows quality are good, but half of the color pigmentation only on average,especially if your skin tone is on yellow / darker tone side then this palette may not give you the best color pay off. Personally, if you have lot of Earth-tone eye shadows, then this palette may not the best choice for you. 

總括黎講，眼睛既質量係唔錯，可能我既膚色既関係，有一半既顏色都唔係好出色。搽左眼影打底霜會好 d, 但係如果你已經有好多其他大地色既眼影組合的話，其實都唔需要買呢個，因為有好多選擇。

Suqqu Eyeshadow

Suqqu Blend Color Eyeshadows in 14 Kosumosuiro

I bought this from one of the Japan group buy from HK, I heard this brand are very expensive and have excellent qualities, included make up product and brushes. Now, I would to share my thoughts about this quad. I paid HK $620 for it, almost US $86, it is more expensive than Tom Ford eye shadow quad US $ 78. It has 3 powder eyeshadows and 1 cream eyeshadow base. These three powder eyeshadows are very wearable in colors, a soft pink with shimmer, a matte vanilla color and a semi shimmering brown taupe.  The cream eyeshadow is a matte dark brown

Suqqu 尊貴品牌眼影組合 14
今次係日本團購時買， 呢隻牌子係日本出名貴同品質一流，由化妝掃到化妝品，都係咁出色。因為我係團購買，呢個眼影組合，盛為HK $620, 美金都要成US $86, 分分鐘仲貴過 Tom Ford (US$ 78) 。呢個眼影組合有3 個粉狀同1個膏狀眼影，顏色都好百搭，可以日日用都得，有淺閃粉紅，啞奶白色，半閃灰啡色。而膏狀眼影就係深咖啡色。

(sorry, forgot to take picture before swatch)

The palette is a thin sleek luxurious black palette in a rectangular shape. Shape wise very similar to Tom Ford. There is one mini brush with a very soft hair and one mini sponge. They both are usable. Same as all luxury eye shadow palette, they all come with velvet bag.
佢既包裝都好高貴，好薄，好 solid, 正方形，同Tom Ford 包裝好似，同好多高級化妝品一樣，都係有個絲絨袋，佢呢個跟埋兩個細掃，個掃d毛仲好軟，絕對可以用得架。

Suqqu is very famous in Japan, because the quality is so soft ,creamy and  buttery. It glides on extreme smoothly on the eyes lids. They have a large selection of the eye shadow quad for you to pick. the pigmentation of this eyeshadow is the best.

Suqqu 既化妝品絕對唔需要懷疑佢既品質，因為佢既眼影出名好， 好顯色，好滑，好容易人化。新手絕對啱用。佢仲有好多色揀，顏色配搭都唔錯。

This palette also come with the cream eyeshadow, again,excellent quality.  The pigmentation is very good and it works very well as a base. This cream shadow lasts the whole day with me without smudging without the eye shadow primer

值得一提，呢個眼影膏真係好正，好顯色，又可以做打底，仲好持久，搽左成日都唔會化開。

Tom Ford Ice Queen Palette

I've finally decided to add this Tom Ford Ice Queen Palette (US$78.00) to my eye shadow quad make up collection, it is a cool tone of icy white silver and grays, since I don't have much cool tone eye shadow quads, so let me try and review it
終於都忍不住買了這個眼妝組合，因為我的眼妝組合沒有太多的冷色系列，其實以 Tom Ford 的品質來說，要選擇一款組合也實在有點困難！今次就先試試這款。

Packaging is very luxury, sleek compact, this palette contains a bright frosty white shimmery color, a sparkle metallic light gray, a light cool satin gray, and a deep matte gray. It's also come with a big mirror and, two little applicators.
包裝設計絕對是實用，很高貴的感覺。它有一塊大鏡子，有兩個小 applicators。這個系列有超閃白，閃淺白灰，啞淺灰，啞深灰

Tom Ford makeup's quality never make you disappointed, no matter is pressed powder,eye shadow, blush, they all are superior ,smooth , pigmented, creamy, always perfectly paired in the quad.
Tom Ford的所有化妝品都是顯色度很高,不管是粉餅，眼影，胭脂，粉質很滑，很幼細，很容易控制，對新手沒有太大的問題。另外，組合的好處是它已經把所有顏色配合地放在這個設計中。

Since, this is a very cool tone color quad, May be not much people will like it, but I  really enjoy it, this color can give you a fresh cool look which perfect for snow white Xmas time.
可能這類的顏色系列不是每一個人的心頭好，但我卻很喜歡，很型格的感覺，並很配合冬天下雪的季節！
