PrettyandCute.com: Lioele !!

Lioele: Life of Elegant Ease   (this is going to be a long post)

Oh how I love the packaging -- mind you I'm not a huge fan of pink, but Lioele is definitely an exception. It's a korean brand (makeup, skincare&whitening, fragrance, men's products as well). I really love their products as does my mommy (:

I ordered from PrettyandCute.com -- I really recommend ordering from here (they also have a store in Portland, Oregon) they carry other products as well: My Beauty Diary masks, many bb cream brands (Missha, Dr.Jart, Skin79 to name a few), circle lenses, eyelashes&glue, and other super cute products. I really love Pretty&Cute.

I only ordered a few items as I'm kind of broke haha, my mom ordered a bunch of stuff as well -- I'll try to see if I can post about those later.

 

Left to right: Lioele Mirror, Lioele All in One Gel Eye Liner, Lioele Artist Auto Brow, Lioele Oil Paper Pact / Lioele Sebum Catch Pact

Isn't the packaging so cute? Most of the packaging is a variant of pink and white, but some are not (waterdrop bb is blue) The little princess carriage is love!!

Lioele: Sebum Catch Pact (box reads Oil Paper Pact)

 I've had my eye on this product for a while now, as I tend to be oily and my current nana's B blotting powder is due to hit pan sometime soon. I haven't used this product yet myself, but I'm sure it'll do just fine for me -- I'll update later on how well it works (any powder usually works fine for me though). Cute cushion print on the powder, with a clear tray that flips out to separate the included puff (which is velvety soft btw). Jen from frmheadtoe.com also reviewed this product, so be sure to check her blog as well for her review, and other reviews on Lioele products.

 Ingredients & Instructions:

Date stamp: MANUFACTURED DATE not expiration.

 

Next I got the Lioele Artist Auto Brow in Grey-Black, they're available in Natural Brown and Dark Brown as well.

 The point of the eyebrow pencil is a very long triangular shape that twists up to dispense, and has a stiff but still bendable spool at the opposite end. Since I have black & bushy eyebrows though.. they're not very full, this works perfectly for me -- I used to use, and I know this sound strange, a cream eyeliner (not a lot, just the leftover amounts that create a very light grey color) to fill in my brows -- this is much easier! I can basically "draw" in small strokes that blend perfectly with the rest of my brows! This is going to be a must-have product very soon. This brow pencil is absolutely wonderful, the color blends perfectly, and I don't have to worry about going overboard, it looks very natural, definitely must have. 10/10

Lioele All-in-One gel liner, comes in dark brown (shade 02) and black (shade 01) 

My camera has a slight fish-eye distortion sorry x_x
 

 I think this is pretty cool, the very top of the liner bottle is the brush which, when flipped over can be capped into the twist bell-shaped cap for the gel-pot. (did that make any sense? hahaha) I have yet to try this, very sorry!! but I can't wait (: I got this in dark brown since I always feel black is too harsh on me >< 

So I just used this eyeliner, and thank goodness I got the dark brown lol, this dark brown is basically black -- the only brown I see in it is a slight ashy brown tone, in the jar the brown is more visible, but I don't know maybe it's just me? It's very black on my eyes already, though I guess it's like how some liners and mascaras have 'black' and 'blackest black' -- I'd recommend the black 01 if you like it super 100% black, this brown 02 isn't too bad, might still be a bit harsh for anyone looking for a brown liner though. This gel liner is indeed a very good liner, has good staying power, smearing isn't too bad either (I had to rub pretty hard at least, and when I was washing off some from my hand, there were still traces of the liner -- using regular soap btw)  It's very smooth during application. Though my one gripe is that if your home is very cold like mine, it maybe a bit stiff at first when trying to get some on the brush.  The brush itself is pretty nice as well. -- overall I'd say a fantastic 9/10 (:

AND. last but not least from my haul. The fabulous Lioele princess hand mirror in Baby Pink:

Isn't it gorgeous? It also comes in Hot Pink (I'll put that one in the next post this one is already soooo long). It has a good weight to it -- doesn't feel too cheap or flimsy, just right it's about 15.5cm x 8cm (or 6" x just over 3") at their uhh longest? points. (the image on the left is the back of the box that each mirror comes in lol).

Finally the last picture I'll post today, the beautiful detailing on the mirror itself:

Thanks for reading (:
