Clinique All About Shadow Quad (Going Steady - Shimmer)

I bought this after watching Asahi Sasaki's YouTube channel. The colors are lovely, and the pearls and glitter sparkle for an elegant look. This is my first time buying Clinique eyeshadow, but it's one I'll definitely want to buy again.

This eyeshadow is such a favorite item that I definitely want to buy it again when it runs out! I purchased No. 03. The shade 2 is a brick-reddish brown, a shade I haven't seen much of in other eyeshadows, but it's a shade that suits me perfectly. The texture is also moist and I found it easy to blend. The pearly shimmer gives it a very luxurious feel, and I could even use it for party makeup! The pigmentation is so good that I think the only downside is that it's easy to apply too much.

I bought 08 Ticklish about a year ago. I bought it without being able to touch it up, and the three colors on the left only turned out almost white on my skin. So when I use it, I apply one of the three colors on the left to the entire eyelid, and then use the one on the right across the entire double eyelid and on the outer corner of my eye quite widely. (The one on the right was also not dark enough to be a finishing touch.) It wasn't the color I expected, so I hardly ever use it. I recommend it for people with fair skin who can wear light colors well.

For cool-toned skin tones, I recommend this palette. The Clinique All About Shadow Quad series' #11 Galaxy offers vibrant color and vibrant eye coverage. The colors in the palette might seem a little flashy, but when you apply this four-color set to your eyes, they create a striking effect without being too flashy. The palette includes two eyeshadow tips, each numbered, making it easy to keep track of which color you're using and reducing the risk of color mixing. The removable mirror also includes an application guide, which is a great reference point. By following this guide, I found I didn't waste any colors. The colors #2 and #4 are similar, but when applied to the eyes, they each have a different purpose. If I had to point out a downside, it would be that when applying the darker #4 to the creases of the eye, the included eyeshadow tip doesn't provide a detailed finish, and it ends up smearing under the eye, making it difficult to use.

I went to the outlet mall at the beginning of the year and purchased this at The Cosmetics Company store. It was 50% off the original price of ¥7,700, so it was only ¥3,850. I got it during a sale. I love purple eyeshadow, and I've always liked this one. CLINIQUE eyeshadow isn't particularly well-known, but the shades were my favorites. I hadn't bought it since I was in my 20s, when I bought the eyeshadow in the cardboard box that came with a CLINIQUE Christmas kit. The eyeshadow itself was good back then, but I felt the cardboard box case was a bit plain. This time, I bought the actual product. The pigmentation isn't too strong, so I thought it was easy to use without being too flashy. The product I bought didn't come with an illustrated guide. I also liked the powder coverage. I thought it was an eyeshadow that was easy to use for both everyday and formal occasions. I think it's also suitable for people with sensitive skin. However, the color selection is limited.
