KALEIDOS Space Age Highlighters #2

When I first heard that KALEIDOS was releasing a new Space Age highlighter, I knew I would be getting it! They have also updated the packaging of all of the highlighter tins and they reformulated Mars Melter. They were re-stocking all of the highlighters on Monday 9th November 8pm PST, so that was Tuesday 10th November 4am for me! I stayed up waiting for the website to be live and I finally got my hands on Sky Walker and I also picked up the reformulated Mars Melter and the new Space Age Prophecy of course! There was also a sale on the whole site, I got Mars Melter and Sky Walker for $10.50 (RRP $14.00) each and The Space Age Prophecy for $27.00 (RRP $36.00). I am really surprised they offered a discount for the newest highlighter as it was also the launch date for it and there is only a limited quantity available of this highlighter every week. I was very lucky; I got on the site at 4:01am and was checked out and paid up by 4:03am! I paid $8.00 shipping and my order came to $56.00 altogether, which is about £44.35.
 
You get 1.8g (SAP), 3g (SW) and 2.8g (MM) of powder in a round pan housed inside a cute little rubberised metal effect colour matching tin. There is also a different imprint pressed into each powder.

Sky Walker (G01)

 “Step up your highlighter game and reach for the sky with this stellar blue shine”

Mars Melter (G04)

 “Melt through this Martian mousse and treat yourself to a warm scoop of creamy crimson and peach”

MY FIRST IMPRESSIONS
I now own all nine of the Space Age Highlighters and I couldn’t be happier! I am still missing Laser Glazer (G02) [bright green with rose gold shift], but it was discontinued early this year and it doesn’t look like it will ever be coming back. My new reformulated Mars Melter actually arrived broken and I was sent a replacement, but that too arrived broken! My second replacement arrived in perfect condition yesterday morning (third time lucky). The original Mars Melter has a white looking base with a mostly magenta glow. The new one has a peachy/coral looking base with glitter. You can see the magenta red hints, but it mostly reads amber to me. I have actually decided to keep both versions of Mars Melter as they are different enough. The original is softer and has a more magenta glow, the reformulated version just amps it up a little with glitter and has a slightly different hue. I don’t know why they didn’t just give the new version a different name and keep both versions as separate highlighters. The Space Age Prophecy is stunning; I haven’t seen a highlighter like it before. It is definitely not for the faint of heart! It applies so smooth and glows like a glitter bomb! Sky Walker is also a beautiful shade, just slightly more icy looking than Moon Cruiser. My swatch photos really do not do the shades justice; it is really hard for me to pick up these shifts on camera. All of the Space Age highlighters seem to have a blue under base to them. You can tell that by some of my swatches, the only one that doesn’t seem to have a blue under base is Ray Rider. Like I’ve said before, these are probably my all-time favourite highlighters! I still wish that they would release a purple/lilac shift shade in a purple tin; a turquoise shift shade would be cool too!

e.l.f Earth & Ocean Palette

I haven’t purchased anything from e.l.f in the longest time. I happened upon a post of this palette on Instagram and the complimentary comments really peaked my interest in trying it for myself. Palettes I have tried from e.l.f. in the past haven’t been the greatest of quality; I kind of associate the brand as being for children, beginners or natural beauty wearers. I was also interested in the Retro Paradise Palette , but I thought I would get more use out of this one at the moment.   THE PACKAGING The packaging is quite simple with a clear/black outlined plastic rectangular shape. The fronting is transparent so that you can see the eyeshadows from the outside of the palette. It has a clip closing, which you push apart to reveal the inside. The square eyeshadow pans are spread out across a black base and the shade names are printed in grey font under each pan. THE EYESHADOWS & FORMULA You get eighteen 0.94g eyeshadows in Matte (M), Metallic (ME), Glitter (G), Satin (S) and Shi...

Chaos - bright cobalt blue with light pearl (matte) Freak - light yellow toned emerald green (shimmer)   These shades are beautiful and I just love these pencils at the moment.

Boots Fragrance Sampler Gift Set for Her 2015

I decided to treat myself to this little fragrance set. As you know, I am a perfume addict and I’m quite addicted to collecting perfume samples too! It’s this year’s Boots Fragrance Sampler set for Her. I saw last year’s advertised but I always thought it was a little expensive for what you get. The set basically contains eight samples of Boots best-selling female fragrances by other brands. The set comes in a small, thin cardboard box and each sample is set inside a plastic insert. You also get a small fragrance guide and the voucher, which is what you’ll need to get your full size bottle of your favourite sample. The eight samples in this year’s set are:- HUGO BOSS - Boss Ma Vie This is a 2ml sample vile in pipette form and can be exchanged for a 30ml bottle of the eau de parfum. “Inspired by the independent spirit of a woman, exuding a glow of femininity and confidence. Created around the cactus blossom, aiming to reinvent and modernize floral green notes ...
