Just a quick post to show what arrived in the post today. I got this Kryolan aquacolour palette off ebay for the bargainous price of £8. The packaging has been in storage so it was a bit tatty but it was unused.
Look at all the pretty colours!
Now this is actually theatrical makeup for face/body so they are very pigmented and have great staying power, but can easily be removed with makeup remover. The great thing about this is that the colours can be mixed together in the tin to create your own shades. I'm thinking of making up my own shade of blusher with the red/pink/white.
Onto the swatches, which were taken with flash and applied wet (Click to make bigger)
The top row of the palettes are bright and vivid. They have numbers instead of names but these are true to colour. My favourite is that hot pink and purple.
These are more neutral and less in your face. I'm not sure how I'm going to use the brown and the two shades of green yet. The turquoise came out as an aqua blue on my skin.
These are quite matte so I'm not sure they would work as everyday eyeshadows but could be used lightly with other blended shadows? I think I'm going to use the black for eyeliner. I'm looking forward to experimenting with these! :D

ReplyDeleteto be honest I'm also trying to figure out how to use even these ones but the black gets plenty of use as eyeliner!
