Review : Aritaum Mono Eyes in No. 113

Hi guys! I'm backkk. Sorry for the long weekend break that I took. I've been taking time to consider which products I should review for y'all and let me tell you, I've got amazing products with beautiful colors/effective results for you! This product that I am going to review today is the first disappointment that I've had before even using the product. Even though the product came destroyed, I still wanted to try to repair it and make it usable because it's an eye shadow, and it's not like the product can't be used, tossing it would just be a waste. The product that I am about to review came in destroyed, the container was fine, it was wrapped in bubble wrap in a plastic sleeve but I do not understand how it broke. Don't worry friends, I let TesterKorea know about the product and they said they'll compensate by replacing it with another one. Unfortunately they ran out of this color so I got to choose another one from Aritaum's mono eyes selection. I'm guessing TesterKorea's packaging department did not carefully choose the product unless they carelessly just threw it in for packaging without thinking twice about it. But anyways, the product that I'll be reviewing today is the...
Aritaum Mono Eyes in No. 113 

First Impressions
This product was eye catching! The iridescent glow that it gives off just seemed so happy and shining on the model in the picture given. If you haven't noticed, I tend to prefer light colored eye shadows over dark colored shadows because it just gives the look a nicer vibe. Even though I have a dark skin undertone, bright colored shadows show up nicely because it's a contrast to my skin. This product seems to be in between a gold and an orange, not too orange or yellow. It's like an even sand color with a nice shimmer to it. If anything, I'd count it as a light peach color that twinkles in any kind of
lighting.

Texture/Pigmentation
 After repairing and pressing the powder back into place for a smooth and compacted surface, the texture was really creamy and jelly-like. It even looked smooth even though the pressing that I pressed did not fully even out the surface. With only one swipe of my ring finger through the surface of the eye shadow, it provided more than enough product on my finger than was needed. The pigment is really strong and it has this beautiful iridescent duo-toned color to it. When the product is in it's case, it shows off as a pink-salmon pearl color but on the skin, it shows off as a light lavender shade with tons of shimmer in it. Unfortunately, this product did not show up as it appeared online but it's okay; this shadow's color came in stunningly!

Pros
Although I'd prefer the true color of what I ordered, I don't mind it because the color is just so opalescent in every angle there is to view it from. The pink pearl contrasting to the lavender did surprise me but in a good way, and I am very pleased to the amount of pigment it carries. This color and texture just wows me. This color is perfect for spring because it just blossoms along with the many bright colored flowers out there! Even the lavender-colored flowers contrast this because of the colors it expresses from the refracting lights. And the shimmer is a pink tint so it can compliment any red-pink-white backgrounds. I just love the softness of the product after I compacted it together. I'm not sure if this is how the product should feel originally but I really like how it's creamy. My favorite types of eye shadows would be the jelly/creamy eye shadows because they're easier to apply and they stay on for longer!

Cons
The only heartbreaking problem that I have with this product was that it came in destroyed and it's a mess when you open it now...Even though I cleared away the loose product, it still sometimes comes off loosely so I'd need to find a way to fully compact the product into not falling out.

Ratings
3 out of 5, due to the loose powdering of the product. The product came in completely destroyed but luckily, I was able to give it some credit back due to it's pigmentation and jelly-like texture! The duo-toned color is just rare because not a lot of products have it these days. Once again, the iridescence is just another thing I love about this product. It just shines so lightly but at the same time, it's so eye catching! This product is also not as bulky as it looks and is very light. If it wasn't for the cracked material, I probably would of gave it a 5/5. The packaging for this product also reminds me of 3CE's shadow's packaging, very simple but at the same, very striking!!
