Better late than never!
I finally got my hands on the
Winterland Magic Makeup Collection, which is part of the
Laneige 2013 Holiday Collection. It's a limited edition set that's no longer available in stores, so I consider myself lucky to stumble upon this baby on the worldwide web.

Laneige Winterland Magic Makeup Collection. |
The set contains three of
Song Hye Kyo’s most popular
Silk Intense Lipsticks and four crystallized shades of
Pure Radiant Eye Shadow plus an eyeshadow brush/applicator in a specially designed case.

Hello, My Little Winterland! :) |
The packaging alone is a winner. The illustration on the box has a cheery, festive vibe while the silver and red hologram sparkles around it give a glamorous feel. The edges of the box and the lid have a magnet inside, so it's easy to open and close.

Pure Fantasy Look. |
And on the inside of the cover, there's a booklet with step-by-step instructions on how to create looks using the contents of the
Winterland Magic Makeup Collection.

Here's a closer look at the eyeshadows.
|
Clockwise from L-R: Pearl Light Pink, Pearl Pink, Pearl Coral, and Pearl Khaki. |
Save for
Pearl Khaki, these eyeshadows aren't heavily pigmented, which is quite understandable since Laneige is all about '
natural beauty'. All four shades are shimmery, but don't get intimidated as they have just the right amount of glitter to make your eyes sparkle.

From L-R: Pearl Light Pink, Pearl Pink, Pearl Coral, and Pearl Khaki. |
As for the lipsticks, they come in 1-gram tubes with cute little prints on the cap. These are miniature sizes, so yeah, they're smaller than the regular 3.5 gram lipstick.
|
L-R: Beige Chiffon, Blonde Coral, Pink Garden. |
All three shades are nicely pigmented and have buildable color. Texture is creamy, glides smoothly on the lips, and they moisturize quite well. They smell wonderful, too!
|
L-R: Beige Chiffon, Blonde Coral, Pink Garden. |
And in case you didn't know, these lippies were made popular by the 2013 drama
'That Winter the Wind Blows'. Song Hye Kyo wore all three shades in the drama, and that's actually one of the reasons why I wanted to own this set so badly, haha.
|
SYR36 is Beige Chiffon, LR104 is Pink Garden, and SR105 is Blonde Coral.
SR102 is Glam Pink, not included in the set. |
Beige Chiffon is a lovely shade of nude, which looks very natural on the lips. Perfect for days like today when I'm too lazy to wear makeup and just want a bit of color on my face.
Pink Garden and
Blonde Coral are two gorgeous shades that closely resemble each other, though the latter is less shimmery and has a more peachy hue.
|
Products Used: FACE: Etude House Beauty Shot Face Blur, Etude House Precious Mineral Any Cushion, Benefit Erase Paste in Medium. EYES: Shiseido Eyebrow Pencil in Brown, K-Palette Real Lasting Micro Eyeliner in Black. CHEEKS: Ever Bilena Cheek Blush in Raisin. LIPS; Laneige Silk Intense Lipstick in Pink Garden. |
I love all three shades so much that I'm considering buying full-size tubes once I've used them all up.
(More like I'll ask the husband to get them for me, haha!)
The
Laneige Winterland Magic Makeup Collection retailed for
Php 1950 (around $44) when it hit the market in 2013. As I've mentioned earlier, this set is no longer available in stores, but you can still purchase the
Silk Intense Lipsticks (Php 1150 each) and the
Pure Radiant Shadow (Php 1450 per quad) separately.
Have you tried Laneige eyeshadows and lip colors before? What are your favorite shades? :)
I love that it comes with a step by step tutorial on how to create the look! As a make up novice, that would be really helpful for me! I like how it has a soft, natural look!
