A couple of months ago I was lucky enough to win a Dave Lackie competition on Twitter! I've been retweeting those competitions for so long and I was so surprised I actually won one as they're so popular. My prize was some Shiseido products, a brand which I've never tried before, so I was super excited for them to arrive!
I also won a gorgeous little Montreal notebook, with some lovely illustrations! The first thing I tried was the Instant Eye and Lip Makeup Remover (£24), I'm not going to lie, I was a little disappointed in this. After being so used to micellar water this had a really oily consistency and left a film on the skin. Also I don't know if this mascara is just generally hard to get off, but this remover didn't budge it!
Speaking of mascara I also got the Perfect Mascara Defining Volume (£23.50). I really liked this mascara, it applied really well and gave a good mix of length and volume, although like I said above it is really really hard to get off and I don't think it's waterproof!
Next I got the Smoothing Eyeliner Pencil (£20) which I thought was interesting as it has the pencil on one side and a blending tip on the other. I don't really use eye pencil that much but I've found that it creates a nice effect when you blend it out.
Finally I got two of the Shimmering Cream Eye Colours (£21.50) the colours are just codes so I'll just describe them! I got a nice mid toned olive green, which I am actually a little bit scared to use! I also got a gorgeous red shade which reminds me a lot of the Maybelline Colour Tattoo in Metallic Pomegranate I want to say? The formula is really nice, super creamy and easily bendable. I found they didn't crease and were super pigmented.
Have you tried any Shiseido products?
