Underwhelmed; everyday-type product
I love (as in, adore) Viseart shadows and have several 12 pan palettes and the Grande Pro. This is my first venture into their theory face palettes and I am very underwhelmed. I had a mental expectation of pigmentation something along the lines of Kevyn Aucoin’s Capri, or Viseart Shadows. Alas, no. The payoff is... far subtler than I prefer. I like pigmented because it equates to fast when you have the right tools (Sonia G, thanks!).
I have fair neutral colouring and found the bronzer a bit too warm for my preference. The blush was a muted tone, and the highlighter is relatively subtle. So, a good everyday set I could probably put on without looking in a mirror; but nothing that wowed me at all.
I dislike the packaging this comes in and immediately transferred it out into a little Make Up Forever XL magnetic palette, which is so much easier to use than the whole flip and fold sequence in this Theory packaging. The packaging has actually put me off buying any of the Theory eye shadow palettes. I do, however, like the fact the shadows are easy to remove - that’s a total plus for this packaging.
The packaging also didn’t prevent one of the shadows being fractured slightly before arrival. (The Beautylish Package was perfectly intact and utterly gorgeous as usual, so the fracture is much more likely to have come from being dropped at some point earlier in its life.) The packaging also attracts the shadow particles and looks messy very quickly.
So, overall, wish I’d put the money towards another Kevyn Aucoin face product.
Adorable product
Amazing products. It’s very fine in texture n easy to blend. I like the blush n bronzer the most. For the highlight, it’s a bit subtle for me. Overall it’s a good product n worth the money. It’s my fave brand. I treasure products made in France. I reckon it’s the quality place for their production. One more thing, I adore its packaging the most so nice to bring everywhere.
Just a Beautiful Glow
This just exceeded my expectations. I was afraid it would be "too much" - go on too heavy, the blush too strong a coral, the highlighter too shiny or glittery. It was none of these... of course with Viseart as I am learning you need a light hand in the application (you can always build) but keeping this in mind I was so delighted to be able to create a very natural and healthy warm flush with this palette. My skin is warm to neutral (I seem to be able to get away with warm or cool colours, depending on how I pull it together) so I wasn't sure which blush palette to order but I am so glad I ordered this first as it looks so healthy and natural on me.... but now I am craving the Enamored palette (will save up for that definitely)! Each colour went on smoothly with soft brushes (recommend ones that are not dense though), only the slightest blending (easy to do with these) and you are done. If only there were more colours!
PERFECT FOR THE SUMMER :)
I love that you can take out all of the pans & then put in whichever Viseart Theory product you want, so you can make the perfect palette for you. Whether it be 2 eye shadows & 1 blush or 1 bronzer or use 2 Theory palettes because they are so small, they will still fit into your makeup bag. Or you can add the Petite Pro to the mix. This makes the combinations absolutely endless & then you can always have on hand the palette that goes with what ever outfit you are wearing for the day, perfect for the person on the go. Yet another reason why I love Viseart so so much. :)
The blush is such a beautiful coral color, it looks like it might go on bit orange but it does not. You can again go from sheer to full on intense because it is so pigmented, this is such a great color for summer. The bronzer is such a nice warm color that applies beautifully onto the skin & is great for the natural sun kissed glow or work look. The highlighter is a wonderful champagne color, just like it says in the description. It is very warm & can go also on sheer if you want. I have never had a problem with any of my Viseart products ever going on patchy & they will last you all day with little to no touch ups. :)
These are all stand alone Beautiful but when you use all three "Gorgeous". Yet again I am amazed how when you use any Viseart products you are able to go from a slightly Better you Natural look. To a full on Glam with no problem at all, I love, "Love" these Viseart face palettes. I am so happy I got them, you can never go wrong with Viseart they are really my Holy Grail products. I cannot rave enough about these, you will not be disappointed. :)
MY FIRST DEFINITELY NOT MY LAST :)
These are my first VISEART face palettes. I have light medium skin tone & got both of the palettes to see which one would be best. Luckily I am able to wear both. This palette would be perfect for anyone with light to fair skin who need a cool tone palette. I wear this if I really need a pop of color with a more intense highlighter. As the highlighter is a icing white with a pink undertone. But if I really, really want an intense glow, I also add one of the Nuance eye shadows. I already "Love" all of the Viseart eye shadows & these are no different. As with all of Viseart products you can use these on your eyes as well, which make these so versatile. :)
The bronzer has very,very small gold shimmers in them but they do not transfer to your face, so they go on matte which makes them great for any age. This bronzer is slightly darker than the Ablaze palette which is great when I have a tan going on & is great for the all natural look. All of the Viseart palettes can be used sheer or your can build them up to more a intense pigment of color if you want. The blush is a more mauve color than the Ablaze & applies beautifully. The thing I love the best about Viseart products is that you can never go wrong when you use them. Just remember to go slow in the beginning. You just need such a small amount then build & blend into the beautiful look that you desire. :)
I really like that I do not have to worry about having to depot these & maybe breaking them. If you happen to have any of the other theory palettes & who doesn't, you can mix & match. "You can tell that a lot of thought when into making of all of these palettes. I can't wait to see what Viseart is doing next, I know they are going to be outstanding like everything else. :)
