PRODUCT SPOTLIGHT: ETUDE HOUSE EYESHADOW (GR601)

Here's an initial review on ETUDE HOUSE EYESHADOW IN GR601

PRICE: 148PHP
PLACE BOUGHT: ETUDE HOUSE, SM MEGAMALL, MANDALUYONG CITY
OTHER LOCATIONS: NONE; ONLINE SELLERS; DIRECT SELLERS.

THE VERDICT:

Okay, for my growing eyeshadow collection, I needed an Aquamarined colored eyeshadow. So before I go to MAC and buy myself Steamy, I chanced upon this eyeshadow in Etude House boutique.

Here's the eyeshadow, untouched. Their packaging and design does remind me of Anna Sui, which is one of my loved products when it comes to design and packaging. I love Anna Sui's design to bits! :)

GR601 is a mint green eyeshadow with silver glitters. It glides on easily and texture is silky smooth. It doesn't fall off on my cheeks when it is being applied and it does give good color pay- off.

Here is GR601 on my eyes. Pardon the messy application. I just washed it messily over the lids so you guys can have an idea of what it'll look like on my eyes. :)

I think that this is a dupe for MAC's Steamy. Took a look at a swatch of it online. The only difference is, Steamy is more frosted, while GR601 is more on the glittery side.

If you're not partial to glitters, then you might have a problem liking this one because it does have a generous amount of glitter in it!

I've read in a blog that this is a dupe or somewhat similar to MAC's Electric Eel eyeshadow. Well, I beg to differ. Here's EH GR601 and Electric Eel side by side. Both are completely different.

Will I buy another again? Hmmm. I'd have to visit Etude House again. Sad to say, there aren't much colors. But then again, I'd have to check. :)
