Media Luxe 眼影膏，01 棕色

I was curious about this product because Miki Arimura recommended it, so I bought it. It's really good. It's easy to apply with your fingers. Take two colors at once and apply them to the edge of your eyelid, then take another and apply it slightly upwards to create a beautiful gradation. The glitter is sparkly, but it's a refined glitter that doesn't look gaudy even on someone in their 40s. I put my makeup on at 6:30 in the morning, and by 7:00 at night, it still stayed put, and I was impressed that it didn't look dull even though my eyelids were a little sunken. It makes me want to try the other colors too.

I've always been interested in finger-applied eyeshadow. I was able to create a gradation easily. It saves time and gives a cute finish. The glitter comes off a little more than I expected, but it's within acceptable limits. I'd like to buy other colors as well.

I purchased this product exclusively for touch-ups during the day. Since I have deep-set eyelids and eyeshadow tends to accumulate in my crease, I apply a tiny bit of this eyeshadow to my crease with a brush in the afternoon. It's like adding powder while loosening up any clumps that might be building up and creating a line. This way, my eyeshadow doesn't accumulate in my crease until the evening, keeping it looking beautiful. For better or worse, color #6 barely comes out, and the shimmer is subtle, so it doesn't alter the color of the eyeshadow I applied in the morning, just like a powder. (Maybe that's because I tend to use pink eyeshadow, so it doesn't stand out.) The container is compact, streamlined, and simple, which is nice. I keep it in my purse, and it's great because it doesn't take up too much space. It's not my main product, but I like it because it's very convenient for touch-ups.

I have sunken eyes, so I bought the expanding shade 02, which I thought would provide some coverage. The case is simple and I like it, but it's a little difficult to open. I'm not a fan of glitter, but this one has a fairly subtle shimmer that's not too flashy and has an elegant feel. I applied it with my fingers, using the top layer on the eyelid and the bottom layer on the corners of my eyes and under my eyes. It eliminated dullness and gave me great color payoff with just one coat.

I use it every day for my office makeup routine. I keep buying it again and again. The shimmer is elegant and beautiful, and the color is translucent, so it's hard to believe it's so affordable. I'm a cool-toned summer/winter skin type, so when I apply the purple, it turns into a grayish brown, which gives it just the right amount of formality and is great. It's my absolute favorite.
