KALEIDOS Space Age Highlighter in Ray Rider

I heard about the brand Kaleidos through watching Porcelain/Bridgette on YouTube. I really love the look of their products and they are an Indie brand based in China, which means they are not readily accessible to the UK. You can purchase products directly from the Kaleidos website, but you would have to weigh up shipping and custom costs. I don’t want to risk that at the moment, plus there are eight highlighters in the Space Age line and I want them all! They do offer a bundle price for all eight ($94.00) and I was so tempted, but luckily it is out of stock! I was browsing through the Depop website and I came across a seller who was selling one of the highlighters brand new and unused, so I immediately snapped it up!
This highlighter is supposed to be extremely vibrant, highly reflective, lightweight and buildable. It should flatter all skin tones and it is vegan and cruelty-free. You can purchase it for $14.00 (£10.78) from KaleidosMakeup.com.

Ray Rider - champagne sheen with a peach hint
“Cruise through gilded galaxies and carve through solar flares on this lustrous golden ray”

The other highlighters in the Space Age line that I couldn’t get my hands on are:

Comet Catcher - fluorescent fuchsia with a peach hint
Diamond Dasher - cobalt, gold and fuchsia shimmers with a diamond hint
Mars Melter - peachy caramel with a magenta red glow
Moon Cruiser - rich neon lilac with cobalt shift
Sky Walker - aqua blue with ultraviolet undertones
Solar Sailor - satin gold
Star Surfer - rosy champagne with silver undertones

My First Impressions
I did have conflictions over whether I thought the packaging was tacky or brilliant. I have now decided that I love the packaging! It is a little large compared to the pan size, but it is unique to the brand and the Space Age line. The highlighter is easy to apply and it is quite pigmented. When you look face on, you do not get a colour cast from the highlighter, you get the shiny metallic goodness when you turn to the side and the light hits it on your cheekbones and looks stunning! It definitely reads more champagne on my skin tone, but I can detect the subtle peach hint when I move and the light reflects off it. I am blown away by the quality of this highlighter and it is tempting me even more to want to buy the bundle. I would really love to try the other shades! I can’t wait to continue playing with this highlighter some more and I wish Kaleidos was more accessible so that everyone could experience this space melting goodness!

Escada Collector's Edition Gift Set

I’ve always been interested in trying Escada fragrances, but there are so many to choose from and I didn’t want to risk buying a full size bottle. I came across this little gift set whilst I was shopping online at Boots and clicked buy straight away! All four fragrances are in a tiny, but cute 4ml potion looking bottle. Here are the four scents you get to try:- TURQUOISE SUMMER This bottle is a turquoise/clear theme and contains the notes; pineapple, strawberry, raspberry, blackcurrant, peach, violet, orange blossom, vanilla, sandalwood and musk. It smells really strong of orange blossom and kind of like a car air freshener. It does linger quite a while on the skin, but it is not really a strong scent. Overall I don’t like this scent. It doesn’t really smell of anything to me and what you can smell isn’t what I would call pleasant. I give this perfume 1/5 . BORN IN PARADISE This bottle’s theme is the same as Turquoise Summer and contains the notes; green apple, watermelo...

Serial Sampler #41

An advertisement popped up on Facebook with an offer of a free sample of this new fragrance and I clicked straight away! I have previously tested the original scent of this fragrance line and I loved it, so I was also expecting to like this one.   It is Born In Roma Yellow Dream by Valentino and it is a 1.2ml spritzer sample of the eau de parfum.   “ A floral lift of a thousand rose petals, twisted with a new clean and fresh addiction. ” Launched: 2021   Type: Floral / Feminine (Donna) Notes Top: Italian Lemon. Middle: Rose Essence. Base: Clean Accord and White Musks. This is a very soft and delicate floral scent with a fresh musk hint. It is definitely more floral smelling than the original Born In Roma fragrance. I can’t really detect the Italian Lemon. I can pick-up a fruity sort of hint, but it definitely isn’t lemon to me. I can detect the very light Rose Essence and White Musk and it does smell like a clean scent. It smells like a lovely spring day to me. I w...
