HELLO! Earlier this week I got hold of my Zen Face Palette from Laura Mercier which I bought from the House Of Fraser website for a bargain price of £20! I have to admit, I just adore this palette! It's wonderful for travel and so convenient for a put together, no-brainer look!
Zen Face Palette is inspired by a serene garden and comes with a selection of 4 eyeshadows, 4 Lip glazes and 1 coordinating Blush shade. It's presented in a sleek metal compact with a dark cobalt blue fabric top cover and features a good sized mirror inside the top cover.
It also comes with a transparent sheet with the names printed on top making it convenient to figure out what product is in it.
I really like it when a palette has the names of its product shades printed on it's back!
The eyeshadow colors are rather muted to give you that serene look when worn. Color payoff is good, though I would recommend using a good eye base with them to enhance it's color intensity. The shades are very buildable and have a semi-matte finish, with tiny specks of shimmer.
The Blush goes on smooth and the color can be easily built up for a desirable intensity.
The Lip glazes are pretty awesome! They are quite sheer shades with good color choices and look stunning on the lips!
However, I am having some reservations over this palette as it has creams and powders housed together.... using this palette in the long run would inevitably get some powders into the Lip glazes and make them look a bit messy... but it's not a serious issue for me...and I am all set to take this palette while I travel as it's such a stunning palette at a steal price!

I would buy this just for the case:-) The print on the top is so gorgeous. I have tried Mercier products before and my feeling is that they dont go well with the darker asian skin tones..

ReplyDelete@Sonali- I sort of agree with you, their eyeshadows might not show up well on the darker skin tones but their other products are worth a try!
