Eye of Horus Teal Malachite Goddess Pencil

A Review on Eye of Horus Teal Malachite Goddess Pencil

Last month, I got hold of the Eye of Horus Teal Malachite Goddess Pencil along with some other goodies in the Special Edition Eye of Horus Glamourbox. Initially, I wasn't very happy with the color because I was looking forward to getting a black one. However, the moment I unwrapped the pencil and saw how gorgeous the color was, I fell in love.

* MY THOUGHTS ON THE PRODUCT *

Color: The warm metallic teal color goes well with any skin tone. My skin color changes a lot during the year, it can turn from fair medium to deep brown in just a matter of days. Taking such factor into consideration, I don't think I'll have issues in wearing this color. It is also very pigmented which means that it'll last a long time.

Formula: True to it's claim, this product has a creamy texture that glides on easily and blends well. Once it sets, it stays on without smudging for a good amount of time. 

Price: This product retails for Php990 online at Glamourbox.ph and DTCMakeup. It is very expensive for an eye pencil but it's definitely worth the splurge. 

You can create a number of looks with this pencil that can give different levels of sultriness. I'm still getting used to wearing eye-catching colors during the day but I definitely make up for it in the evening. Currently, this is my favorite look using the Eye of Horus Teal Malachite Goddess Pencil.

I hope you enjoyed reading this review. If you're still thinking of getting this product, I say go ahead and buy it. If you already have it, I'd like to know your thoughts and see the different looks you've created. Until the next one...

Cheers <3

Unboxing: Special Edition Eye of Horus Glamourbox

Finally, after the long wait, my special edition Eye of Horus Glamourbox has arrived. I've never owned any Eye of Horus product before but I've been thinking of getting their Goddess Mascara. I chanced upon a kiosk in Market Market, (forgot if it was Snoe or something else) and saw that they had testers; so without hesitation I tried it out. I like how it emphasized my eyes and lengthened my lashes. 
The moment Glamourbox announced their tie-up with Eye of Horus on their upcoming subscription box, my heart leapt! 

Without further ado, I present the Special Edition Eye of Horus Glamourbox goodies:

Item/Price:
1 Eye of Horus Teal Malachite Goddess Pencil Php990
2 Eye of Horus Goddess Mascara Php990
3 Eye of Horus Sharpener Php295
4 Eye of Horus Ankh Necklace Php580
5 Eye of Horus Facial Bamboo Mitt Php480


Here are my thoughts on this box:

The Good:
1. It's worth every penny. I paid Php695 for a box of Eye of Horus products with a total value of Php3,335. BOOYAH!!! 
2. The Teal Malachite Goddess Pencil and Goddess Mascara are perfect for the summer season. I'm very pleased that they included these products.

The (not so) Bad
1. The combination of products confused and disappointed me a bit. Because the theme revolves around the idea of having sultry eyes, I was expecting to get makeup or products that can be used to "prep my peepers" as mentioned in their ad.
2. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy with my purchase. I just think they should have thrown in something else instead of the necklace and the mitt. I like the necklace, but it doesn't make my eyes sultry. I mean, come on...

Overall, I'm glad I subscribed to this special edition Glamourbox. Despite the theme issues  I have, I'm satisfied with the products that actually go with the theme. I would definitely recommend this to those who don't own any Eye of Horus products yet. It's a good way to get to know the product without spending so much.

As of today, February 23, 2015, 12:20 p.m., the special edition Eye of Horus Glamourbox is still available for subscription at Glamourbox.ph
