Visee Smacky Glam Limited Edition Haul

Guess what I got?….

Photobucket

Visee feat. Smacky Glam Glam Glow Eyes and Glossy Nude Rouge Limited Edition. Visee’s official website is here and if you are interested in looking at what Smacky Glam is, you can click here. I’m not familiar with Smacky Glam at all but it looks like a boho-chic type fashion label that is on the pricey side (a jacket costs 38,000JPY).

The pretty packaging had me at “hello” but I’ve always been a fan of Visee (here & here). This is totally not a review post because I’ve not even worn any of these but I thought you Visee fans out there might like to see the products up close ;-)

I only got the “Bitter” products which are a warm nude eye palette (BR-7) and nude lip gloss (BE305). I didn’t get the “Sweet” set because the pink is rather cool and I’ve already got a cool pink in my Dior travel palette (would like to do a review on this soonish – loving it!) and the lip gloss is quite a run-of-the-mill shade so I decided against getting the whole LE set.

I especially love the peachy champagne shade on the top left corner (I know you can barely see it but it’s more pigmented in person, I promise) and the warm taupe on the top right. The dark brown eyeshadow is surprisingly matte looking when swatched.

My least favourite is definitely the shimmery white eyeshadow on the bottom left. It is very flaky and I’m kind of over highlighting my eyes with what seems like light glitter dust.

This nude lip gloss is definitely quite unique where drugstore cosmetics are concerned. It’s not super pigmented nor is it sheer — kind of in between.

I think it gives the lips a slightly milky nude look which is very pretty.

Visee is under the Kose umbrella and is so affordable (the eyeshadow palette is 1,600JPY at retail but Matsukiyo was having a sale so it was marked down further by 20%) but yet has very good quality eyeshadows, as mentioned by Glossed in Translation too, so I would highly recommend you getting some Visee if you can.

Other bloggers like Rouge Deluxe and Bittenbefore have written about this LE collection too.

I thought these colors were very wearable and so I bought them as a gift for my bestie!

The name is hilarious but the colours are gorgeous!

@Ru: Yeah I think so too! Very good for an everyday daytime look.

@Jamilla: Gosh I had the same thought…I was like, “What the hell is Smacky Glam?!” That’s Japlish for you. There’s a brand called Human Woman which always cracks me up.

Ohh I havent given in to the LE palette yet.. pretty swatches!

did you purchase them online? or in store?because im really interested in the lip gloss!

Ooooh they look so cute! It’ll be sad when the flowers in the eyeshadow get rubbed off :(

And I must have something from Human Woman!

@nic nic: Very wearable colours…;-)

@kimby: I bought them at a drugstore…

@Elizabeth: Actually the flowers seem to be embossed quite deeply – I have used this palette a few times but the flowers aren’t even fading at all…except the super sparkly one which behaves literally like dust so the flower on that one is gone simply from my single swatch (but I swiped it pretty hard though). Human Woman is a fashion label that you can find in Lumine in Shinjuku I think…

awwww…the gloss is pretty…super tempted now…=)

Packaging is so pretty :) BTW glad to see you active again:)

Hi Sonum, I am feeling better. I hope for my cold to be completely gone by this weekend so I can go back to working out!

The packaging is so lovely! Visee really outdid themselves. I hope they’ll have new palettes that are just as pretty! =)

Recently Visee released another limited edition collection that has cute polka dots. I think they found their winning formula so I’m expecting more collaborations for sure…
