Althea Korea's MakeUp Box Must Haves

It was a perfect time to receive the newest makeup box from Althea Korea since February is the love month wherein I get to go out and just chill with my partner. And speaking of chilling out the products are so pigmented that it stays up to the whole day that I was attending events. Let me share with you some of the products from the makeup box! ^_^

Althea Korea once again surprised me with must-have eye makeup.  Althea's very first eye shadow palette, Eye Palette Sunrise & Moonrise. Made in collaboration with Bunga Citra Lestari, shes an Indonesian singer and actress that have graced the screens of many across South East Asia. Affectionately known to her fans as BCL, she’s also a beauty and fashion icon that exudes style, beauty, and femininity.

Ok when I first see the palette outside its packaging I was like a very flowery and summerlike compact and once I open it was like my eyes got stuck at that moment wherein I instantly imagined of a summer getaway wearing the different shades of the palette with a mix of glitters, shimmers, and mattes that easily blendable.

These 8 shades will take you from gorgeous daytime to sultry night time, giving you the effortlessly glamorous feminine style Bunga is known for. In shimmers, mattes, and glitters, these pigmented shadows glide easily onto the skin and blend out like a dream, allowing you to create an array of looks suitable for any occasion. 8 pigmented shades that can be worn for both daytime and night time
