Too Cool For School Twin Color Eye Crayons ★

One of my favorite Too Cool For School products, the Twin Color Eye Crayons! ♥ There are 5 color combinations available, and I got 4. Each crayon is supposed to have a "base" color and "main" color, though I don't actually use them like that. To me they're like 2 "main colors". So I have 8 colors in total! ♥

Each crayon retails for 12,000won, and they each come adorably packaged in a triangular prismy brown paper box ♥

The "base color" ends: #3 Gold Beige, #1 White Pink, #2 Pearly Red and #5 Metallic Grey. 

The "main color" ends: #3 Warm Green, #1 Dark Purple, #2 Pearly Brown and #5 Dark Navy. 

I actually prefer the colors of these ends to the "base" ends!

 

The Eye Crayons are soooo smooth and creamy, and go on like a dream. They're all extremely pigmented and pearly, and are super easy to blend. My only complaint is that since they're so thick, they're hard to use as eyeliner at the outer corners, especially if you want to make sharp edges or cat eyes. So I use these as color eyeliners/eyeshadow, and use a black liquid/pen liner over it because I like sharp-edged eyeliner.

I don't think the Eye Crayons fit regular sharpeners, you have to get the sharpener from Too Cool For School. The Eye Crayons are the same thickness as the Lip Crayons, so the sharpener is the same, but for hygiene purposes I bought two sharpeners, one for the lip crayons and one for the eye crayons.

 #1 White Pink + Dark Purple 

My favorite crayon of the lot, because the dark purple is my absolute favorite color! I don't know why it seems more brownish/maroon in the photos, but the actually color is really more like the crayon than the swatch. The White Pink is a very sweet color, and looks like the "without flash" color, though slightly more pink in real life.

#2 Pearly Red + Pearly Brown 

For this it's the opposite, the color of the pearly brown is actually more like the swatch than the crayon.

#3 Warm Green + Gold Beige 

I didn't buy this at first, but after leaving Seoul I kept thinking about the green and how unique it looked, so I asked my friend to help me get it^^ I like using the gold beige for highlighting the inner corners of the eyes, it's not too white and doesn't have huge glitter chunks.

#5 Dark Navy + Metallic Grey 

I really like the navy! 

I like the Metallic Grey too, though I think I'd like it even more if it were slightly darker?

These were part of my Too Cool For School haul from Seoul last year.

★ Too Cool For School Lip Products

I don't think I can describe how much I love Too Cool For School! I love the fun, quirky designs of the products, they're definitely an unconventional cute, but cute nonetheless and oh-so-fun! And the products themselves are amazing ♥♥ The Blending BB Cream is one of my absolute favorite products from Too Cool For School, and so is the Lip Tint~

Too Cool For School Blending BB Series

A little overdue, but here's a mini review/introduction to Too Cool For School's Blending BB Series. Part of my Too Cool For School haul from Seoul last year, I've previously introduced the Too Cool For School lip products, and now it's onto this wonderful Blending BB Series! Their BB cream is one of my absolute favorites! 

 

The three items in the Blending BB Series: Mineral Jinju Ball Blending Powder, Blending Cake BB and Blending Cream BB. Too Cool For School also has other BB creams, but my friend recommended the Blending Cream BB, so I tried hers and loved it, and ended up buying rest in the series. (By the way, Too Cool for School sticks a yellow sticker saying "all mine!" at the counter when you buy it, it's like their "Paid" sticker, so cute! ^^)

Too Cool For School Blending Cream BB

This is one of my absolute favorite buys from Too Cool For School. It looks cute in the bottle, with alternating swirls of essence and cream~  ♬ The scent is really pleasant, kind of floral but not sweet. Perhaps due to the almond oil and macadamia oil? The BB cream also contains aloe vera to sooth the skin.

This gives a wonderful dewy, glowing finish. The only downside is that it has no SPF, so you definitely need to use sunscreen under this. Other than that, it's really amazing! I used it everyday for about 6 months...see the difference in amount of product! I'll be finishing soon...  (*´д`*)

The tube comes with a handy, hygienic pump, and on the swatch I believe you can tell which half has the blended BB cream on! The finish is really natural, giving a brightening effect; the coverage is light-medium, but enough to cover redness. The Blending Cream BB comes in 2 colors, #21 Light Beige and #23 Natural Beige, and costs 20,000won.

Too Cool For School Blending Cake BB

Haven't used this yet, though I'm planning to move onto it after I finish the Blending Cream BB. It's basically a cream pact version of the cream, and the pact has a unique twist-lock cover as opposed to regular snap-lock ones. Comes with a puff that sits on an attached inner cover that closes over the cream. Hygienic and convenient!

The BB contains mango seed butter, shea butter and argan oil to keep skin moist. And the outer casing of the pact has a cute graphic of a girl~ The Blending Cake BB comes in 2 colors, #21 Light Beige and #23 Natural Beige, and costs 20,000won.

 Too Cool For School Mineral Jinju Ball Blending Powder

"Jinju" means "pearl", and this product is kind of like Guerlain Meteorites, but skin-toned. For use after the BB cream, it has slight shimmers to further give a glowing look. Each ball is made up of a mix of two colors (see the ones at bottom of the jar, the ones on top are overexposed!). The balls contain pearl powder for highlighting, and avocado extract for moisturizing the skin.

Too Cool For School is an amazing brand, and I adore the quirky adorable packaging they have for their products, their store concept/layout and their fun products! Their Twin Color Eye Crayons are another favorite of mine! If you're ever in Seoul, you should definitely check it out~ They have two stores in Myeongdong, one in Ehwa, one in Insadong, one in Sinsa...and those are just the ones I visited^^ Plus they're very generous with their samples, and the staff are really friendly.

Hello Liz Lisa!

It's been over a year since I last went to Liz Lisa.

This time, I went and got a member's card :)

So even if I never go again, I'll always have the card~

Tennoji MIO store.

Lucky for me, LIZ LISA was having a special event that holiday weekend.

Buy 2 items or more, and get the items at 50% off!

As always, lovely lovely displays.

How can you resist taking a look?

Kyoto AVANTI store.

Osaka HEP 5 store.

Cosme de Liz Lisa Jenne makeup items, they're so pretty!

Ornate gold and roses adorning the packaging.

Close up of the eyeshadows.

Summer limited shopper bags.

Rings I bought! The top two are a set and the bottom two are another set.

The first time I went, I bought a dress, a denim top and a suspender skirt (the straps are detachable).

White crochet bolero, blue floral skirt and the cutest floral skorts!

I love the lace trims on the bottom of both!

They both have an additional lining inside, making it 3 layers!

(Outer design layer, lace trim layer, inner lining layer)

As always there are novelty items (items you get if you spend above a certain amount).

Last year it was the umbrella, and this year it's a mini tote.

I wasn't expecting much, but the tote is actually quite roomy and well made.

Pretty bow in the front, and there's also a front pocket.

The top has a magnetic closure, and the sides can be expanded/closed (with snap buttons on the side) depending on your preferences.

The inside it well-lined with Liz Lisa print, and also has 2 pockets.

The bottom even has metal studs on all 4 corners.

Too Cool For School Lip Products! (and Blusher)

So I went to Seoul last month, and fell very much in love with the brand Too Cool For School. One of my favorite products: their Art Class Lip Crayons! These were 6,000won each. I wanted to get all 5 colors, but couldn't find the orange anywhere (I went to 5 different stores!) :(

Yellow isn't really yellow, but rather it provides a golden glint. And blue gives a shine/kind of highlight to make your lips look fuller. I love the red, it's quite pigmented but sheer! The texture is really smooth and creamy, a breeze to put on; it's really like coloring your lips with a crayon. And I really like how they're designed to look like crayons, with the position of the wording and the wavy lines.

So these are most of the lip products I got, and I say most because some of them (about 2?) aren't in the picture...because after coming back I decided I wanted other colors so I got my friend to help me get them.

Another favorite: Kiss Time Ice Beam Glass Lip Plumpers

These were 8,000won each.

I got three colors, from top to bottom: #1 Sparkling Beam, #3 Pinky Baby, #2 Red Beam.

#1 is a clear gloss with sparkles. It's not pigmented, but can be layered over lips for sparkle.

#2 is a sheer red gloss with sparkles.

#3 is a slightly more pigmented pink color that isn't as sparkly as the other two.

They're wonderful to use: non-sticky, don't drip down your lip, give great shine and a slight plumping effect. Plus the packaging is really cute! They're small and have the adorable red ribbon on the cap, as well as cute heel motifs on the bottom!

A doe-foot sponge applicator.

Currently, I like using the red lip crayon and dabbing the lip plumper in #1 over.

Haven't tried these yet: Creamy Glow Pens

I got them in three colors.

Top to bottom: #1 Dusty Pink, #2 Acid Tangerine, #3 Warm Raspberry.

They're something like the Stila Lip Glazes, in that it's a brush tip applicator, hence the "pen" in the name. But instead of twisting, you push the bottom of the pen to push the product through. I haven't used them yet, but from the testers in the stores, these glosses are quite opaque and non-shimmery.

Another love: Milk Tint

The two colors are pink and orange.

These were 8,000won each.

This has a sponge applicator. It gives a very natural tint!

I'm really addicted to the pink, but I haven't tried the orange yet.

Hot Girl Lip Sticker in #3 Lady Salmon.

Love the words on the box:

Sometimes life can be boring, but you cannot!

You are not boring, you are too cool for school.

Jolly Jelly Lip Gloss.

This is #2 Nudy Orange.

This is #9 Mission Pink.

The applicator is a spatula-type applicator.

Smoky Nudy Lip Color

Lipsticks from the Glam Rock collection.

Nude lipsticks!

Left to right: #1 Pale Beige, #2 Satin Beige.

Too Cool For School has other blush products, but since I have a ton of blushes, I just got this.

Art Class Blusher. A super cute cream-type blush!

The packaging is adorable, like a tube of paint!

This is #1 Pink.

It was 8,000won.

I bought A LOT of stuff from Too Cool For School. There are still BB cream/powder products, eye crayons, skincare products and accessories/tools!
