PRODUCT REVIEW: Eyeko Touch Up & Go Concealer

Product: 3/5
Packaging: 3/5
Quality: 2/5
Overall: 2.67 out of 5
Price: $8 at eyeko.com
Would I Repurchase? No

WHAT EYEKO SAYS: Put tired eyes to bed and banish blemishes. Featuring a skin friendly formula combining purified water and jojoba for colour that glides on for a seamless finish and stays put. "It's easy to fake a good nights sleep with this luminous concealer with a silky finish for wide awake eyes in an instant."

PROS
+ The packaging makes it convenient for ladies on the go.
+ Surprisingly, the consistency is nice. It's not too creamy, but not too thin. I think the right consistency for covering blemishes.
+ Comes with a built in brush, so you don't have to use your fingers.
+ Reasonably price at $8

CONS
+ It only comes in one shade.
+ You can't see how much product is left.



COMMENTS: Overall I like the Eyeko concealer. It has a great consistency and I love that you can throw it in your purse! But the deal breaker for me is that it only comes in one shade! And it's wayyy to light for me! If they produced more shades I think I would definitely repurchase this. Here's some comparison swatches with the eyeko concealer vs. my MAC Studio Finish Concealers.



But since I hate letting any products go to waste, I got this tip from Tina Marie! Use concealer that is too light for you to highlight under your brows after filling them in. It conceals those tiny hairs that are too small/thin to pluck out but are still slightly noticeable. After highlighting under the brows, I continue with my normal eyeshadow application and apply eyeshadow highlighter over the concealer.

If you are one of the fairer skinned ladies out there, I think this is a great concealer to keep in your make up bag. But if you're darker toned like me, you can skip this!

PRODUCT REVIEW: Eyeko Mascara

Product: 4/5
Packaging: 5/5
Quality: 4/5
Overall: 4.3 out of 5
Price: £5.00 [roughly $8USD] at eyeko.com

WHAT EYEKO SAYS: Transforms lashes in the twinkle of an eye! Lash friendly formual combining natural oils and silicones with added Panthenol (Vitamin B).
Designed to prevent dryness, premature breakage and to promote lash growth. The brush has widely dispersed bristles for evenly coated perfectly separated long lashes.

PROS: I really like the packaging, you know how exactly how much product you have left! Plus it really makes my lashes longer & thicker!

CONS: It doesn't separate lashes, the brush kind of makes lashes clump. When I wash it off it comes off in little bits.

Here's some pictures!


naked lashes


one coat of mascara // see the difference?!


second coat // gettin' thicker! but also starting to clump more =[


third coat // clumpin but i dont think it's that bad

COMMENTS: Overall I really like this mascara I think it's my FAAAVORITE eyeko product so far! And it's cheap, around the price of drugstore brands but I know exactly how much is left so I don't dry it out if I run out before the 3 months are up! The brush is really spaced out though so it could be a good thing or a bad thing. It doesn't really separate lashes how I would like but it gives volume & length the way I like it. After I finished applying it, my lashes reminded me of MAC's 7 lash - how it's spaced out but thick? lol I love this mascara & I would definitely buy it again!! =]

FOTD: Eyeko Products!

So I finally got around to playing with the Eyeko shadows I got and I decided to use mostly Eyeko products for this FOTD. Before I get into the FOTD, I wanted to talk about the eyeshadows. I'm going to be honest, these are not the best pigmented eyeshadows. They're actually kind of sheer. BUT! I think the lighter colors make AWESOME highlighters. So there's good and there's bad. The eyeshadow cake reminds me of Pop Beauty Eye Cake eyeshadows if you've ever seen them at Ulta [I think at Sephora too?] They're in a circular tin can and it looks like this:



I looked at the one in Ulta and it's actually REALLY similar to the Eyeko ones - esp the weight and the pigmentation. SO if you were thinking about getting these at all I would definitely recommend buying Eyeko! The Pop shadows are $19, but the Eyeko ones are only 5 British pounds which equals roughly $7 - 8. Here are swatches


no base


UDPP as base

As you can see, the base just makes it slightly more pigmented. I think these colors are great for beginners who aren't used to super pigmented shadows or if you like to do really soft daytime looks. On to the FOTD! Here's what I used

Eyeko Haul!

I got my Eyeko haul last weekend but I didn't get a chance to post it because I had a Physics exam today and I spent the last few days studying like craaazy. I think I failed it too. =[ Anyway on with the haul! Eyeko completely hooked it up! I put code E129 and one of their other promotional codes and this is what I got:


3 in 1 Cream, Mascara, Strawberry, Raspberry, and Mint Balms


unwrapped


yummyyyy! LOL

Me & L agree, the strawberry fat balm smells heavenly! I say it smells like strawberry fruit roll ups & she says now & laters LOL! I tried it the strawberry balm as a cheek stain and the color looks gorgeous I haven't tried the others yet though. I love everything! I was really skeptical about the mascara, but it works surprisingly well. The cream is awesome too! It really does give that glowy look but I can't use it on my forehead because my forehad's significantly darker than the rest of my face LOL Don't worry, I'll do reviews on everything soon but here was the sneak peek! ;]
