K-Points: 7/10
So, for beauty reviews, unlike my album unboxings, I will be much harsher because this can directly impact your health, where buying K-Pop albums does not. It just impacts your wallet. As such, all of my beauty reviews will be out of 10 points. I will not be going over that number.
I am always a big fan of glitter shadows. They are one of my favorite products for bringing light towards the eyes. On top of that, they are nice and sheer and just make everything pop. That being said, out of all of the glitter shadows I own, these are not my favorite. For starters, they do not layer very well with powder shadows. They actually have a habit of pulling up any powder shadow you applied if you are not careful. Additionally, the applicator on them is too big to easily line the lower water line without messing up. If I want to do that part of my eye, I have to get a seperate brush and use that for the lower lash line. Since this is the part of my eye I usually use glitter on the most, these are not reached for as frequently as some of my other glitter shadows.
What are the Koreans saying?
I was digging through reviews on 화해 (Hwahae)*, a Korean skincare app that lists out the ingredients of products from many brands for people to look through as well as post reviews. So, instead of going through and talking about what the Koreans thought since there are 7 shadows, I will rank all 97in order based on the number of reviews and stars. Also, I included the release date of the shadows so that you can that into account with the number of reviews.

Where Can I Buy It?
Whenever I buy K-Beauty, I do shop at a couple of different places. If you want to see all of the places that I shop at, you can check them all out here. I picked these up at a number of different places, including Style Korean and Olive Young. With a number of the places I shop for cosmetics at, you can also use Rakuten for cash back off of your purchases on their site.
What is Rakuten?
Rakuten is a cashback site that gives you money for purchases you may have already made. They even have an extension for multiple browsers so when you go to a website that uses Rakuten, it will automatically pop up the cashback button to make sure you are saving money. I use this all the time, and I got over $80 back from them for purchases I was going to make anyway. That’s about 3 more albums I can buy!
If you’ve never used Rakuten before, you can use this link to get $10 when making a qualified purchase of $25 when using Rakuten. You will also get whatever percent cashback is being offered from the site you are purchasing from. Sephora, typically has 4% cashback, through here. Ulta typically has 3%. These are just some of the companies on the website, but there are other major retailers on there as well!
Rakuten also has a Google Chrome extension that will tell you as soon as you log onto a site that has cashback with a little pop-up in the corner so that you can ensure you are saving money!
