Beauty - DollyWink Cream Eye Shadow in Gold (from Japan)

Most of you already know that I have a deep love and fascination for Asian beauty products. Beauty brands from that part of the world pay attention to detail and produce high quality beauty essentials. It has taken a long time for the west to realise the innovation involved in the Asian beauty industry but they are slowly getting there. The popularity of BB cream is testamount to that. I am very keen to review lots of Asian beauty products on this blog and today I bring you my first. The product I will be reviewing is DollyWink Cream Eyeshadow in Gold.

DollyWink is a cosmetics line fronted by popular Japanese model Tsubasa Masuwaka. It is a line she produces in collaboration with very popular cosmetics line Koji and it is very big in Japan. The collection includes eyeshadows, nail polishes, lip products and lashes.

I have been a fan of the range for a long time so it made sense that my first review would be a DollyWink one.

So let's get on to the review.

The first thing you'll notice about this product is the super cute packaging. All DollyWink products are adorned with the black bow and polka dots. Most products also feature Tsubasa's face too. I love anything cute and girly so that packaging ticks all my boxes. It is distinctive too so you can always tell it is DollyWink even when it isn't boxed. the brilliant thing about the rear of the packaging is that it shows a swatch of the product. This is a genius idea and it is something I have never come across on Western products.

The colour is a very pretty metallic gold and it is extremely wearable. It glides on easily and stays put for hours. this colour would be excellent on the eyes paired with black liquid eyeliner. But you could also use it as a highlighter on the cheekbones.

Verdict: A brilliant, wearable multi purpose product that doesn't break the bank.
