Advent Calendar Part.2

Hi !

We are the 24th December it's the Christmas Eve and we have all open the last door of our Advent Calendar 😁
Soo I will show you what I had on my beauty advent calendar Cristina Cordula (brezilian/french fashionista).

First it's a pretty calendar, but for the packaging of the beauty products are plastic and like 'Barbie' makeup with a lot of pink shade.

So the summary:
- 4 x 4 eyeshadows palette.
- 4 lipstick
- 1 blush
- 4 nails lacquer
- 4 lipgloss
- 1 black eyes pencil
- 6 accessories

- I'm sorry in advence for the quality of the pics, some products are really light color so they are really discreet on my swatch, don't hesitate to clic on the pic for zoom -  

The Eyeshadows palettes:
N°1 :
The purple and lilac are not too much pigmented and the result is really light.
For the bright pink and dark pink, good pigmentation,
I think to use the dark pink the others colors are not really the eyeshadow color I use normally.


N°2: 
The 2 pink shades are really pigmented and one of the bronze are really pigmented too but the other one is really light not too much pigmented.
I like absolutly the bronze, so I will certainly use it.


N°3:
I like this one, the 4 shades is really good pigmented.
I really like the green/khaki shade is really pretty.


N°4:
I like this one too, the light pink and apricot are really light and shiny and the dark grey and light grey really good for a smoky eyes.



The Lispstick:
3 Pink shades and 1 red shade.
I try one on my lips and it's a really light color, I don't see a change of color, they are not really pigmented like and gloss effect.
The red is the one who are much pigmented, the only one I will use.

The nails lacquers:
4 Little nails lacquers, they smell so bad, the smell the nails lacquers but too much, when you open it, it's come quickly to your nose, but the colors are pretty, I will let them a chance. 


The Blush:
A really pretty shiny peach color, good pigmentation.
I will use it sure.


The lipgloss:
3 Pinky shades of pink, the formula is really gloss, 2 are really soft pigmented (the 2 down) and the two other is much pigmented but the same color at my eyes (the 1 up).


The eyepencil:
A simply black eye pencil, the pigmentation is not too much dark and the formula is a bit too dry.


The accessories:




The result is, I'm a bit disappointed about the products, too much pinky and for the reputation of Cristina Cordula I thinking to have really great things but I'm not sure she know what they make in the Advent Calendar at her name ...
Like I tell, it's a 'Barbie' calendar 😉
I will use some products and accesories.
