Sivanna Colors Summer Gradually Compact – Review

Hey guys!

Today I'm gonna review Summer gradually Compact from Sivaana Colors! I was so much tempted to have the palette after seeing it on Flipkart and couldn’t wait to try it out when I received mine from the same!

Sivanna Colors Summer Gradually Compact – Review

The palette comes in a plastic packaging which is black in colour with a see-through piece where we can look at the eye shadow colours . Despite plastic packaging, it feels quite sturdy and travel friendly. The lid does not contain a mirror. The blush part comes out as a slider from beneath the eye shadow palette. It also carries a blush brush.

The range has got 8 palettes, so it may confuse some with their availability of colours  and to be honest, I too was a little confused before buying. Since this is a new brand, I was not ready to spend huge bucks as I was not really sure about the quality of products that they come up with. And it turned out **AWESOME**.

Price : Rs.300 for 20gm

I really cannot mention the ingredient details because I myself don’t know if it is written on the carton of the product. Everything written on the carton is in Thai so… Pardon!

The palette which I got from the range is no.8. Basically the palette has got super pigmented and shimmery eye shadows and blushes(not sheer).

Eye shadows

There are eight eye shadows in the palette. The texture of the shadows is slightly on the creamier side. It's too silky and not over powdery. It has got good pigmentation, but fades if not used with primer. I would recommend using either  a sponge applicator or eye shadow applicator brush. I have used wet sponge applicator and ended up with super metallic finish. They are super pigmented plus shimmery, hence take a little more effort on both application and blending.  These are not for very long wear, if doing so one may need touch ups. I get about 3-4 hours or so of wear with a little bit of creasing.

While I do love the shades, the application is a little fussy and takes some time to get the shadow blended on your eyelid and also the problem of fall outs. 

I'll swatch all colours for you guys! The colours hold no names.

Can you spot the difference between the two whites??
They are different! One has got gold glitters and the other has got silver glitters.

Blushes

There are two blushes in the palette but both are of the same colour. The texture of the blush is not too silky and slightly on the drier side. The blushes are pigment-rich, they stay quite long on the skin. The blush is a bright pink shade which adds a lovely healthy flush to the cheeks.

I would recommend using a stippling brush or a fan brush to avoid going overboard with the color. I have ended up with overdone cheeks with these blushes a couple of times so it's best to use the right tools for application. Because they are quite pigmented, they make take a little more work for blending as compared to sheerer blushes. Its best to use a very light hand while applying these blushes as a little goes a long way. 

While I do love the shades and how long wearing they are, it takes some time to get used to the application. These also need a powdery base to blend perfectly so make sure to use a setting powder after foundation to ensure that they blend smoothly.
