Photo and Quick Thoughts: Smashbox Eye Wish Eye Palette for Christmas 2010

December 1, 2010 Paris B 29 Comments

Smashbox Eye Wish Eye Palette – RM229 Limited Edition

The Smashbox Eye Wish eye palette is a limited edition offering for Christmas 2010. A gold box that holds 12 eyeshadows, 4 cream liners, 1 mascara and 1 mini Photo Finish Lid Primer plus a look book with 10 looks to guide you through the use of the palette.

Its pretty largish (I’ve used a coin to show the size of the shadows – pretty large) and I really like that they included a mini lid primer and mascara because it just completes the look. I’ve got a few more pictures after the jump if you’re keen 🙂

The colours don’t swatch as dark as they look. I like that. Its got a lovely creamy shimmery quality that gives iridescent colour. I’m not too much a fan of deep pigmented eyeshadow colours so it might be why I like this one.

I found the cream shadows less impressive. That said, I have yet to experiment with any looks with these due to not having much time, so I might change my mind later.

If you consider the price per shadow, its a pretty decent deal you’re getting for the price 🙂

Story is its coming in this week or next. Just in time for Christmas then 😀 Let me go play with this one for a spell and I’ll have swatches for you in a few… remind me if I get tardy 😉

Smashbox Eye Wish Eye palette is limited edition and retails at RM229 at Smashbox Cosmetics counters at Parkson Pavilion Kuala Lumpur and 1 Utama

      Err… no I didn’t think so LOL! I noticed they came in 4 colour families – browns, purples, blues and greys, if you run vertically down the palette. But of course, there’s no hard and fast rule how to use it 😀

    Ah…palettes for Christmas. They always seem to be very much of a good deal, so good until I have to self-declare pokai.Just saw Urban Decay’s 15th anniversary eyeliner set, great deal but at usd 92……..

    Sigh. WIsh I’m born a millionaire. LOL.

    Swatch em quickly, I wanna see too!

      Palettes are the best deals ever! 😀 I saw pics of the UD eyeliner set too. Thank goodness the 24/7 eyeliners smudge like mad on me so am not in the least bit tempted. Still, I wonder how they thought anyone would pay US$92 for that when they have promo sets for Christmas every year anyway featuring a whole set of liners.

      And I want to be a milionaire too… but gotta go it the hard way 😛 Swatches will come in a few

        They work about to approximately RM 18-19 per eyeliner. For a brand like Urban Decay it’s a GREAT DEAL. ^.^ And now to find someone to get them for me…

          When you work it out that way, ya, it is cheap! But to pop out $92..not cheap then coz we’d have to factor in shipping and such. And if it makes its way to M’sia via Sephora, I’d bet it’d be more than $92. I love UD eyeliners but guess I’d buy em during their FnF sales then. I don’t need all the colours..I suppose.

            Afraid i’m with Jessica on this one. Its alright taken singularly but when you have to shell out the $92 at one go, it can hurt the pocket. Also its probably great for those who run through UD liners a lot and love them. I’m so glad I don’t 😉

    Can’t wait for swatches .. whee! These don’t have glitter/sparkles in them do they? The price makes it a real good buy, so many choices this xmas.

    Maybe it’s time for me to drop some hints for Xmas 😀

      If you prefer something more intense and colorful with prettier packaging then its the Urban Decay Book of Shadows. I passed on the Urban Decay one mainly because of packaging (too bulky) and because the intensity of colours meant I wouldn’t use them for everyday 🙂

        Finally found someone who’s agreeable with me on this considering all the hype I read about this pallete. I was at Sephora SG last weekend and tempted to get the BOS since the SA was saying it was the must have pallete (but I have to disagree, as for me it’s the Naked pallete – which was sadly out of stock!) but after deep thinking, it was definitely too bulky and I was sure I would not use them everyday. But, I’m thinking of getting the Smashbox as all the colours are my fav!! Can’t wait for the swatches!!

      If you don’t like glitter re-think getting BOS3, about half the e/s have glitter – with massive fallout. The colors in this palette look pretty similar to BOS3 except they’re not as shimmery.

      Oh the infamous 88 colour palette! 🙂 Guess you’d find similar colours in there then.

    I think this year’s palette colors are slightly more muted than last year’s. But well, I guess this would be more wearable.
