Sailor Moon 20th Anniversary Make-up Mini Haul + Review ♥

After months of anticipation the new re-animated Sailor Moon has once again graced the earth. To top it all off, the makeup collection is super awesome. (Damn those Japanese people and their cute packaging). Sailor Moon is my childhood. Therefore I must buy it? Yes. Let me tell you when I saw the press powder for $200 on friggin ebay. I WAS DONE WITH IT. Mangs, the thing is cute and everything. But I'm not that delusional and brainwashed when it comes to these things. So I only bought what I considered "essentials" and something I would actually - use. 


I only got 3 things which are all eye-related makeup.  One sparkly white eye pencil, 2 liquid liners which comes in brown and black. I know there's like a billion assorted different colours for each individual characters. But the only time I'm going to wear seafoam green... is never. And red pencil liner seems a bit too intense for me. Even as an eyeshadow it ain't really my thing. Plus I don't cosplay. So = Waste of money for the sake of collecting dust

WHY I BOUGHT THESE THINGS:
1) Because these were the ones that would actually ship to Australia. 
2) Because it's actually not TOO expensive and easily justifiable.
 3) It's cute what can I say. 


For today's post I'm only going to unbox the brown liner. Because I still have to finish several black liquid liners. This is my first time buying a brown one. I didn't expect it to be any good. Considering the whole purpose for this line is to advocate for the re-release of the anime. But hey... it's actually pretty good. 


Brings back the childhood. Sobs.


Since I bought mines from SaSa they stuck the Chinese instructions over the Japanese. Thank goodness, because I can only read English and Chinese properly these days.


Once you pop the eye-liner out of the cute packaging. "Miracle Romance" is splashed crossed the product. Love the whole cutesy thing... it gets to me. 


At first glance the tip is good. Glides smoothly and the liquid is oh so finneee. The package claims to be waterproof. Trust me it is. Rubbing this with makeup remover was a challenge for me. It just wouldn't budge. Had to find an oil base to get rid of it. I suppose if you have oily lids it might get it off easier? I have sahara dessert kind of skin. (As you can probably tell from the pictures my hand is dead) 


Yay it's brown not black. haha


Next I tested out the Miracle Romance Star Power Prism Pencil-liner in the colour White. First of all if you like bling bling stuff, you WILL love this. Pigmented, glides easily, sparkly heaven and smooth as hell. This products is available (as a mentioned earlier) in different colours. Red, sea foam green... etc etc etc. 


Not as fancy as the liquid liners. But hey it's Sailor Moon herself. ^_^


Once again the back is covered with the Chinese instructions. Basically teaching you how to use it and the ingredient. Nothing out of the ordinary really. Although I doubt all the ingredients are listed... I have a feeling there's more stuff. 


Yay more Miracle Romance. ^_^ this time it be ribbons not meow meows. 


I'm a person who loves retractable pencil liners so this is going to be a pain for me. But the product itself is good I must admit. So pretty *_*


Yay it may look chalky on my hands but... I have grandma hands. Sorry it's winter over here and I'm cold. 

Hope you enjoy my babble of a post. Until next time ^_^
