Swatch and Review: Illamasqua Powdered Metal – ThaliaOpis in ocena: Illamasqua Powdered Metal – Thalia

One of the goodies in Illamasqua package was also Powdered Metal – Thalia. :w00t:

Let’s take a look at packaging. Product came in nice black box with ingredients, weight,  usage and other information printed on it.

You get a lot of powder in the jar – whole 15g (0.52 oz.). They added shifter to the plastic jar, so you have pretty good control over the dosage.

You also get puff for applying powder on the face or the body.

I prefer to apply Thalia with brush, because I have more control that way, but puff is also fine if you’re applying powder to larger surfaces and your don’t really have to have precise application – décolletage, collarbone …

I do like the product by itself – it’s easy to apply and gives of metallic sheen I love in eyeshadows.

I took my time to explore Thalia and discover different ways to use it. I applied it as bronzer, blush, over matte blushes/bronzers, as eyeshadow, on my collarbone …

The end result – I can use it only as shadow. Problem lies in the color itself – it simply looks dirty on my skin. Other thing is that I’m just not fan of shiny things on my face. But I can imagine that it looks great as shading powder for décolletage on those with darker skin tone – evening summer party is the first thing that pops into my head.

On the other hand it rocks as eyeshadow – not as all over shade, but something I use to spice up brownish shades.

Our Maestra prepared gorgeous make-up to show you that Thalia can be also used as highlighter.

Price – 22 GBP/27 EUR/34 USD. It’s not cheap, but if you love it – go for it.V Illamasquinem paketu se je skrival tudi Powdered Metal v odtenku Thalia. :w00t:

Poglejmo si najprej embalažo. Izdelek se nahaja v lični črni škatlici, na kateri so navedene: sestavine, teža, namembnost …

V škatlici se skriva večji lonček s kar 15g prahca. Plastičnemu lončku so dodali sito, ki omogoča bolj natančno doziranje.

Ter blazinico s katero lahko prah nanašate na obraz ali telo.

Meni osebno je bolj pri srcu nanos s čopičem, vendar sem preizkusila tudi blazinico in moram reči, da kar dobro opravi svojo nalogo. Predvsem, če prah nanašam na večjo površino in ne potrebujem zelo natančnega nanosa – torej dekolte, ključno kost …

Izdelek mi je sam po sebi všečen. Krasno se ga da nanesti, ter da koži kovinski lesk, ki je meni zelo všeč pri senčilih.

Kar dolgo sem izdelek testirala – ugotavljala za kaj vse bi ga lahko uporabila, vendar je v vseh teh mesecih odkar ga imam, v uporabi predvsem kot senčilo. Rjavkast odtenek mi na žalost ne paše in izgleda na moji koži umazano, tako da je odpadel kot nadomestek za bronzer/rdečilo. Pa tudi blešči se preveč za moj okus za uporabo na obrazu, preostanek telesa pa skoraj nikoli ne senčim. Na kakšni s temnejšo poltjo, bi bil rezultat krasen za kakšno poletno zabavo. :thumb:

Zelo rada pa posežem po Thali-ji kot senčilu za oči. Ne pretiravam s količino, vendar je že majhna količina zadosti za poživitev make-upa.

Maestra pa je za vas pripravila še čudovit make-up s Thalio kot osvetljevalcem.

Cena – 27 EUR. Definitivno zadeva ni poceni – vendar, če vam je všeč, si jo le privoščite. :wink:
