KATE Cosmetics 24K Gold Rush for Spring/Summer 2013

I was just going through stuff online and realised KATE Cosmetics 24K Gold Rush Collection for Spring Summer 2013 could actually be perfect for a subtle glam look for Coachella. KATE 24K Gold Rush Collection is made of 24K Real Gold! The collection includes 4 Goldish Eyes palettes, gel pencil liner and shiny gel eyelid liner.

KATE Goldish Eyes is not just about the gold, it's about combining spring summer colours with the glam of gold. All that high impact shimmer comes from two unique gold pearl powders - Real Gold Pearl, a pure gold pearl powder with 0.1% 24k Real Gold and Nuance Gold Pearl, a bright pearl powder with a hint of gold. Goldish Eyes comes in 4 shades - Gold, Pink, Blue and White. Thing is I tried swatching the colours but the only one the showed on me was the Gold which looked really nice. The other three were just too light for me. Plus I noticed that the colour pay off for the Gold was a bit more intense.

To define your now already gold shimmery eyes, KATE has come up with a new Slim Gel Pencil. It's really fine with a 2mm diameter which allows you to create a sharp clean line. This pencil however cannot be twisted back down hence it only twists up to 0.7mm increments so that you don't get too much out. It's also well pigmented. The black contains black pearl giving it a subtle lustre. It also comes in brown. Does it smudge? Well it's waterproof ie it's sweat-, water-, and sebum-resistant.

Here's something extra to make your eyes pop even more, KATE Shiny Eyelid Liner. This goes on the lower lids. Pink is for a strong contoured lower lids and Beige is for naturally full lower lids. The brush is decently fine to ensure a clean line.
