This is a 4 colors eye shadow palette that can mix and match

for various eye looks by blending colors.

 Available in two palettes, the #01 Cherry Blossom Festival in pink-brown

and #02 Cherry Blossom Night in all brown.

 I don't particularly hate Korean eyeshadow.

But the color is usually stronger than Japanese eyeshadow.

Since I'm doing Mon-Fri-from 9 to 5 job (it's actually 8.30 to 5.30),

I chose some unvisible color but one that will make my eyes healthier.

And a texture that won't smudge during office hours.

I picked this because of the cute cherry blossom image and pattern.

How to apply

Touch and layer colors onto eyelid using a finger or brush.

Softly blend down to the lower lash line.

 The cherry blossom range from Etude House for spring 2018 is actually consists of:

Face Liquid Blur primer, lipstick, lipstick case, and eyeshadow

If I could, I would but the two palettes available.

But it was rare to find the #02 Cherry Blossom Night at ready online store.

And basically, I have too many brown shade eyeshadows.

I will invest more in another shade and brand, I think.

This is too bad.

The palette is not travel friendly, have no mirror or brush.

But it can be used with finger though.

I must say that I bought it due to the cherry blossom color no.4,
Cherry Blossom Hill.

It is quite cute and I don't have that color in my current palette.

Swatches:

1 is a pink beige color

2 is a shimmery silver-pink color

3 is gold brown

and 4 is shimmery pink

Only used the darkest gold-brown color on inner & outer corner.

Texture wise, it is not as good as normal drugstore eyeshadow would.

It looks similar to Daiso Ellefar, a thick pressed shadow without much powder.

But the good point is, it have minimum fallout.

And the quality stays good for all day on my dry skin without smudge.

I can clearly see the gradation though the entire day.

I personally think the pink color is too much for daily use.

But since it is pastel pink, I might use it sheer, unlike this picture.

Or for quick application, I would use two colors without much gradation.

It doesn't irritate my eyes at all.

This is not my everyday color palette,

but I will use it when I need something feminine with gradation lips.

I like the left look above, where I used contact lens.

It shows misterious atmosphere really well by putting the lens.

MY THOUGHTS OF ETUDE HOUSE CHERRY BLOSSOM BLEND FOR EYES #01 CHERRY BLOSSOM FESTIVAL:

+ Easy to swipe despite its thick texture.

+ Contains 4 colors in one palette to create any kind of gradation theme, pink or brown.

+ Stays long on dry skin type.

+ Minimum fallout.

+ Can be used daily because the color is a pastel type and doesn't have large glitter.

+ Emphasize feminity.

+ Very lightweight.

- Doesn't include mirror and brush, not travel friendly.

- Not too cheap for 4 colors palette.

- Texture is a bit thick for my preference, although can be swiped easily.
