Review: Paul and Joe Beaute Fall 2010 - 067 Silvery Moon Face and Eyecolor CS

My last test with Paul and Joe eyeshadows is Silvery Moon ($35 for 0.27 oz). It was one of the three limited edition face and eyecolor palettes of the Fall 2010 collection. The color coordination immediately caught my eye since I have a thing for taupe and silver.  Silvery Mon contains a shimmery white, shimmery gold, a frosty taupe, a satin grey and a dark navy blue with blue shimmers. The taupe and grey shades are really gorgeous. You can also use the shimmery white and gold shades for face highlithing. While the colors are pretty, I've found the texture a bit chalky, especially the dark navy blue. All shades are soft but not as smooth as the other P&J eyeshadows I've tried (here, here, and here). This is probably my least favorite of the bunch. If you love adorable packaging then yes don't miss this as it's also versatile. But I wouldn't recommend this to those who wants good quality.

Review: Paul and Joe Beaute Fall 2010 - 068 Moon Shadow Lipstick C

Moon Shadow ($25 for 0.12 oz) was one of the three limited edition lipsticks of the fall 2010 collection. It's one of those special products that you're probably sold solely due to the cute design - a kitty head instead of a bullet. The kitty head is carved in delicate details making this lippie more like a piece of art.

Moon Shadow is a medium rosy pink with golden sheen. It's very pretty and wearable pink that will pair perfect with almost all eyeshadows. The color, however, is not special. Many other brands offer similar pinks. It really wows me when paring with P&J Sailor's Delight. Together they create a Chanel-glossimer effect by adding fine golden shimmer of Sailor's Delight and muting the pearly goden sheen of Moon Shadow a little bit. Plus, the final shade is warm orange-tinted rosy pink. It is AMAZING! The texture is smooth, creamy and moisturizing. I think P&J lipsticks very much equal Laura Mercier counterparts. LOVE!

Out of the three P&J retailers I've tried, Primping Parleur has the largest collection of limited edition items. The quality of the products are awesome, no dents or broken pieces. I purchased 2 eyeshadows from Spring 2010 collection and they look brand new. Given that the boutique is 20-minute drive and the package was delivered after 5 days, I'm quite happy with the shipping and handling.
