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.

The Space Age Prophecy
- multichrome champagne with a green and fuchsia shift
“Destined for ultimate illumination, this colour shifting glaze is the chosen one the universe has been waiting for. Fulfil the prophecy and discover a realm of radiance when you make contact with this mystical treasure”
 

Sky Walker (G01)
- aqua blue with ultraviolet undertones
 “Step up your highlighter game and reach for the sky with this stellar blue shine”

Mars Melter (G04)
- peachy caramel with magenta red glow
 “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!

Perfume Power! - Harajuku Lovers 'G'

I received this perfume as an Easter gift from a family member. The bottle design is really cute. It has a doll figure cap, which lifts off and the actual bottle is clear and simple glass, it kind of has a flower shaped base. The size I have is very small, so it is handy for your handbag. And I suppose you could keep the doll for collector’s purposes, when you have used up the perfume. The fragrance notes are:- Top Notes: Crisp Mandarin, Fresh Coconut & Apple Skin Middle Notes: Jasmine Sambac, Soft Freesia & Magnolia Vapour Base Notes: Coconut Cream, White Sandalwood & Cottonwoods To me it smells really strong for an eau de toilette. I quite like the scent because it is very feminine and quite sweet. The only thing I don’t like about it is the coconut. I don’t really like the coconut scent anyway. Other than that, it smells amazing, until the coconut hits your nose. I can also smell the floral side to it as well, the coconut does complement the flor...

Graze - Box #10

I have another Graze box post for you today. I am thinking of stopping these posts soon because it is starting to feel compulsory and I need to post more relevant beauty related content. A closer look at my treats. Graze’s Popping Corn ‘Lightly Salted’ I have tried this before and it is really nice and not overly salty. You get quite a bit of corn in the bag too, even though it is a small packet. Lightly Toasted Pistachios “Whole pistachios toasted with a little salt” I have had this packet before too and I just love pistachios! Tomato & Basil Pizza “Basil crunchini, cheese cashews & mini tomato breadsticks” This is my first experience with this packet, but each snack has been in other packets I have tried before. The crunchini is very nice and it’s just like croutons. The cheese cashews are nice and I do still really like the tomato breadsticks/baguettes. Herby Bread Basket “Basil baguettes, garlic crostini and oregano ric...

Glamour Magazine - July 2013

It is the July 2013 edition and you get a choice of five free MODEL CO products and four different magazine covers ( Rebel Wilson , Zooey Deschanel , Myleene Klass & Daniel Radcliffe ). I have never heard of the MODEL CO brand before, but judging by their website, they are marketed as high end. I’m not sure what size the items in the magazines are, but I have listed the full sizes and prices below. FIBRE LASHXTEND Mascara - £28 SHINE Ultra Lip Gloss in Strip Tease - £12 SHINE Ultra Lip Gloss in Showgirl Red - £12 COLOURBOX Eye Pencil in Black 01 - £14 LIP ENHANCER Illusion Lip Liner - £16 I decided to pick up two copies because this month’s edition is £1 instead of £2.
