It's been a while since I last wrote my review on beauty things. Sorry, guys, I've been busy and well, life got onto me. However, here I am with a new review of Eyecrush Color Mood Mascara and Contour Duo from B. by Banila which is my latest obsession. Psst, the Eyecrush Color Mood Mascara is a summer limited edition.

01. Lively Color
Exhilarating Neon Pink and cool Palm Green color gives different vibe in one swipe.
02. Easy & Quick Mood Change
Change the mood of makeup easily without having to use one color mascara.
03. Long-Lasting Multi-Proof
Excellent waterproof and curl-retention by triple coating cover.
04. Apparent color expression even with multiple application
No clumps result even with multiple application.
05. Delicate Slim Brush
With the slim tip shape, the delicate brush catches the short eyelashes and maximizes the long-lash effect.
01. A three-dimensional face line for small face effect
Highlighting the strong features of the face and covering the 'weak' parts of the face for more beautiful finish.
02. 2in1! Natural shading to match skin tone
Two shades without reddish tone for natural shading effect.
03. Excellent Texture
It's soft and lightweight without lumps for soft-skin finish.
04. Lightweight and Natural, as if not using anything
Reddish skin NO NO! It doesn't feel heavy even with several application and it's easy to control the depth of the color. (Infused with Darkening Free Clear Powder)
I love how simple and stylish B. by Banila's packaging is. Look at these two, both of the packaging are somehow monochromatic which makes them simple but still stylish.
The Eyecrush Color Mood Mascara has this long and slim applicator. For one who has small eyes like me, I personally think that the applicator is a little bit too long.
However, formula-wise, I think it has a pretty nice formula. You can see from the photo that the mascara doesn't clump around the applicator. That's a plus point.
But with me having short lashes, I don't think it holds my curl up that well.
It's also very pigmented, I can get the color on with one application. Its formula is also waterproof, perfect for this summer season. On the other side, or should I say the negative side of a waterproof formula is that it's really really hard to clean.
Meanwhile, the Contour Duo is climbing up to the top of my favorite contour powder list! It provides two different shades in one pan, the lighter shade and the darker shade for your convenience. You can use one of the shades of mix them up! I love how their shades are not too reddish or too orange-ish, just perfect for my skin tone.
It's pretty pigmented for a contour powder, too. The texture is also very soft that it blends easily on my skin.

Eyecrush Color Mood Mascara
Maybe? I'm not sure. The color is not really wearable for daily so I think it will take forever for me to empty it.
Contour Duo
Yes, absolutely! It's my new favorite contour powder.

I don't think they're available overseas yet, you can check your local online shops.
