Stila Barbie Eye Mousse Pot in Glitter Petal


バービーアイムースポットのグリッター ペタルはスティラジャパン・バービーコレクションの一部として3月に発売されました。スティラのシャドウポットと比べるとバービーの方はムースのような質感ですが、シャドウポットの方がクリーミーでよりスムーズです。グリッター ペタルは濃いピンクに柔らかなキラキラが入っていて、シャイニーなシャドウポットよりも薄いです。キュートな色ですが、とても自然に見えるので仕事にも不適切ではないです。ピンクのシャドウは、私の肌のピンクトーンが強いせいか、色が全く見えない or 目の周りが赤くなったりする傾向があるのですが、普通のパウダー アイシャドウとは違ってムースが肌の上に乗る感じなので、容器に入っている時と全く同じ色合いになります。もし大胆に目立つ色が欲しいという方は、スティラのシャドウポット イン リリー ウィズ グリッター ペタルと組み合わせて、クールなピンク色とキラキラにすることができます。

The Glitter Petal Eye Mousse Pot was released in March as part of the Stila Japan x Barbie collection. Compared to Stila's Shadow Pot, the Barbie Pot is more mousse-like in texture while the Shadow Pot is creamier and smoother in composition. Glitter Petal is a deep pink with a soft sparkle that is much more subtle than the shiny Shadow Pots. Although it is a cutesy color, it is not necessarily an inappropriate shade for work as it does look quite natural. Pink shadows have a tendency to appear either invisible or red around my eyes, most likely do to my strong pink tones, but because the mousse sits on top of the skin rather than completely blend in like a regular powdered eyeshadow, when applied, the shadow looks almost exactly like how it appears in the container. If you want a bolder shade, you can also combine Stila's Shadow Pot in Lily with Glitter Petal for a cooler pink with greater sparkle.

もしピンクのシャドウが合うと分かっている方は、バービー アイ ムース ポット イン グリッター ペタルは非常に良いメイク商品です。見た目が素晴らしく、暗い肌のトーンでも色が際立ちます。残念ながらスティラは今月末までには日本から撤退してしまいますので、見付けるのが非常に困難になると思います。シャドウポットと違ってバービー ムース ポットは薔薇の香りがします。目をヒリヒリさせたりはしませんが、ちょっとイライラします。

If you know pink shadows work well for you, the Barbie Eye Mousse Pot in Glitter Petal is a very nice eye makeup product. It would look especially wonderful and really pop out on darker skin tones. Unfortunately, now that Stila will leave Japan by the end of the month, it will be difficult to locate this product. It should also be noted that, unlike the Shadow Pots, the Barbie Mousse Pot contains a rose fragrance. It has not irritated my eyes but I do find it a little annoying.


スティラで商品を購入した時に、おまけとしてスティラのメモ、フォルダ、小さなチャームを貰いました。事態が好転して、スティラが再び日本に戻ってくることを強く望んでいます。バービーファイスシマーパウダーは今でも私のお気に入りのハイライターですし、いつも使っているお気に入りのメイクアイテムのひとつです。

Along with my Stila purchases, as a parting gift, I received another Stila memo, a Stila folder and little charm. I hope Stila will consider returning to Japan when things begin to look up again. Their Barbie Face Shimmer Powder is still my favourite highlighter ever and one of my favourite makeup items that I use all the time.

Stila made great shadow pots that worked as nice bases for eye shadows. It's a pity that they pulled out of Asia. Thank goodness for my backup tub. Gotta start hunting for a replacement product.

The color looks cute but I bet this won't show on my lids well. What good pink color e/s do you suggest?

@Melissa: I was in HK last week and they still have Stila there. If you ever visit Hong Kong you can check out Harbour City for Stila cosmetics.

Thanks for dropping by my blog. In response to your questions:

En -
The toner has a more hydrating then cooling effect to it. I attribute that tingly feeling to alcohol, seeing as this product doesn't have it it sits on your skin longer before evaporating. The witch hazel is more soothing than astringent.

Oooh, this looks adorable!! Stila pulled out from Malaysia in April =(

Thank you for the super sweet comment! In fact, I'm going to google for Mika Nakashima now hahaha

Hi Melissa,

Thank you for the lovely comment. I really do hope Stila comes back. Thank you for visiting again.

Hello saintangelius,

The shadow pots are one of my most favourite products from Stila, too. Are there any good substitutes from other brands?

Thank you for answering my questions about the Dr. Jart toner. I'm supposed to avoid Witch Hazel but the toner sounds so interesting.

Eka,

I've never had any success with other pink shadows before. They just don't work with my skin. But Stila does carry some pink shadow pans. Lunasol also has several pink palettes and Majolica Majorca carries some deeper pink shadows. Wish I could be of more help!

Blair,

That's too bad that Stila has already left Malaysia. I hope they will consider coming back in the future.

Mika's eyes are probably her most attractive feature and I think they are the reason why she's Kanebo Kate's spokesmodel. There is something very mysterious about them. =)
