3rd: Integrate

Integrate has been slowly changing its brand image. (Remember the TV ads starring Angelina Jolie when the brand was first launched several years ago?) Integrate is now a cuter and more girlie line, and the new Rainbow Grade Eyes series from Integrate’s fall 2010 makeup collection makes a clear statement regarding how the line wants to be perceived. The message is clear.
2nd: Coffret D’Or

Even though Beauty C Curve Eyes from the line’s fall 2010 makeup collection is not one of my favorite eyeshadow palette series from Coffret D’Or, I still like how wearable the colors are. The one I have, 04 Peach Beige, has a very spring-like feel and is suitable for most seasons.
1st: Lunasol

Again, a stunning collection from one of my favorite makeup brands. The Aurorize Eyes series from Lunasol’s fall 2010 makeup collection features beautiful colors with shimmer, sparkles and iridescence. The look of 02 Light Variation is fresh and vibrant, but it is ethereal and elegant at the same time. I think Aurorize Eyes will be among the most popular eyeshadow palette series from the brand.

hi. i noticed on your site that you have recently uploaded images in the .bmp format. it would help a bit if you’d safe and upload them in .jpg format, since its’ filesize is much smaller.
thanks for all the posts! :)
Hi Kiks,
You are very welcome! :)
Very often, when I do screen captures (not right-click and save), I notice that the quality of the images is (very slightly) compromised when I save them in the .jpg format. This is why I have been saving them in the .bmp format. But I think I will start judging them on the individual basis. This will hopefully speed up the loading of the blog.
Thank you very much for your suggestion! :)
I do agree that the latest Integrate Rainbow Grade eyeshadows are a surprising departure from their more mature image. I actually don’t fancy the look of the palette design but the shades are truly lovely and good quality for the price tag. I bought three palettes already – lol!
Hi Astrorainfall,
I tried Rainbow Grade Eyes in BE303 for the first time today and I do think the quality of the powder (especially that of the three shades in the heart) is very good. I do like the packaging of the palette but I think I slightly prefer that of Lavshuca’s Eye Color Select.
I will use the palette for a few more times before I review it on my blog.
Thank you very much for stopping by again! :)
agree. Lunasol still the best. i had bought the ‘star of night’ and found i already had a similar colors from Estee Lauder. but there significant different that Lunasol so stunning when i put on each brand on each eye at same time.
Hi Kim,
For me, Lunasol is certainly one of the best beauty lines in Japan. I do think the quality of its makeup is better than that of many major western brands as well. I am glad that you like your Start of Night eye palette! :)
Thank you very much for your comment! :)
