Marc Jacobs Magic MARC'ER

Hi lovelies,

it's time to hunt for another great eyeliner in the market.

Since Sephora opened it's shop in Indonesia, a lot of beauty enthusiasts are ready to explore 'new' items on Indonesian market. Marc Jacobs beauty products are one of the collection sold exclusively at Sephora Indonesia.

-*-

Inspired by a calligraphy pen, this liquid pen eyeliner uses a proprietary capillary system that draws the finest lines with perfect definition. Available in the very blackest, shiniest black on the market, this no-transfer, no-fade formula lasts all day, with a sleek design that begs to be held. Suitable for the boardroom or the bedroom.

-*-

-*-

• This never-seen-before Blacquer formula creates the shiniest and blackest black on the market, and was developed in Japan.

 I've been using Magic MARC'ER for quite some time now and after realizing that Marc Jacobs Beauty comes with cute names, notice the magic marker? Style icon? And many more. It is so cute in an etymologically way.

-*-


This is the pen, the Magic MARC'ER in the blackest black possible. The shape of the eyeliner is similar to a Montblanc pen, in terms of size and chubbiness.

-*-



Once I opened the pen and look at the tip, ooh, it's beautiful. It's intensely dark, the tip is fine and able to help creating a thin line, not an unnecessary super thin line, but thin as in enough for the eyes, and with a certain pressure may also produce thicker line for a much more needed attention drawn for the eyes.

-*-



Above is me using it as a fine line. It accentuates the eyes very well. Do stay tune for more look I'll make using the Magic MARC'ER on my instagram account @carnellin.

-*-



Above, the dark ink, is the swatch of the pen, it will go everywhere if used on damp skin. But when used on dry skin it will be like the image below. Superlative, satisfactory, yet delicate and subtle.

-*-

In terms of being waterproof, it is correct, but it wont stay against greasy lid. Use a primer and powder on the greasy lid so the eyeliner may have a better chance on staying.

Thank you so much Marc Jacobs Beauty Indonesia.

Marc Jacobs Beauty Style Eye-Con No.3 108 The Glam

Hello everyone,

Here's Marc Jacobs Beauty Style Eye-Con No.3, The Glam.

-*-



A luxury item that comes in a black 'box', white writings, and detailed information on each of the shade's ingredients from 1 (the biggest circle), 2 (the middle one) and 3 (the far right).

-*-


When I opened the box, the Magic Marc'er already show it's form with the pen, but the eyeshadow are still inside a pouch, a black pouch.

-*-


After being opened, it finally shown it's form, a beautiful colors with large mirror. Oh this is good, nobody like using their eye color using a micro mirror, it's frustrating and intimidating at the same time. Big, wide mirror means liberating.

-*-


But it seems like it's missing a tool, there it is, there's no room for the small brushes like most eyeshadow palette do. Even thou most of us doesn't use that mini thingy anymore, but it's still handy when we carry none.

-*-


So, the pouch is now known as a home for the plush shadow and the small applicator.

details from www.marcjacobsbeauty.com:
Instant color. Pure performance. Luxurious textures.
Each set of three stylish shadows was designed to create iconic trios. Luxurious shadows in shimmery metallics, buttery mattes, and lustrous sheens are made with advanced pigments that allow true, instant color payoff, and plush performance with the longest wear. Each set invites you to play—to become your own style icon.
• Made for easy application with the richest color payoff in creamy, sumptuous finishes.
• Long-wear shimmering metallics, buttery mattes, and lustrous sheens.
• Product dots correspond to color use.
• Marc arranged the shades to smile at you every time you look inside.


-*-

And behold, the swatches:

-*-



When applied,
They can be light and feathery.

-*-

Perfect as a hint to accentuate the eyes without being visible.

-*-


Or perhaps, a bit bolder and adding the Glam to the eyes

-*-

They look subtle, sultry and really beautiful. I love how clean they are with no mess, or at least very minimal dusting is needed. The fine particles is just wonderful and makes application and blending so much easier with a result that pays off.

-*-

This could be the dream eye shadow, so pretty and stay true to what it is made for. The matte are matte, the metallic are shimmering and it made that gorgeous creamy look as well, effortless.
