The Holiday Collection: Tokidoki Chromatico Eyeshadow Palette in Adieu

Cromatico Palette in Adieu. How cute is the box?

Ladies and gents, if you love the colour purple, you are going to love this palette.

The Chromatico Adieu palette ($19 USD at Sephora) comes with four gorgeous eyeshadows, a mini brush, and a Tokidoki character.

A collectible eyeshadow palette that allows you to explore both your criminally cute and irresistibly edgy sides.

What it does:
Create your perfect look with four coordinated shades. Made with pigments that won’t fade, these shadows are also formulated with natural rice lipids and vitamin B, so they blend beautifully and hydrate the delicate eye area. There’s also a collectible charm inside that can hook on tokidoki key chains, makeup bags, or anything you wish to accessorize!

Okay so I’ll start off with the packaging of the product.  How cute is this quad?  It’s basically a see-through cube that holds the eyeshadow and a character in the bottom.  I still keep this product in it’s original box because I feel that the box adds to the entire package.

Top L-R: Carina, Ciao Ciao, Bottom L-R: Adieu, Al Dente

On to the eyeshadows, the colour selection on this particular palette are pinks and purples.  I personally think the colours are gorgeous and they apply really well too.  They are a bit glittery (especially Carina, the white colour) and I have found that there is a bit of fall out but nothing too major.  I highly-recommend using a eyeshadow primer with this product. Here is a look that I created using the palette. This photos was taken around 6 p.m. and I applied my makeup around 9 a.m. so as you can see it doesn’t disappear by the end of the day.  I used Ciao Ciao (the pink shade) near the inner corners of my eyes with Adieu (dark purple) all over my lids.  In the crease (as well as on the lower lash line) I used Al Dente (the black with purple sparkles), and then finally, Carina (white) as a highlight on my brow bone.  I have also done other looks with Ciao Ciao on my lids, Adieu in the crease, Al Dente as a liner, and then Carina of course as the highlight.  You can for sure wear this palette a few different ways; you can go girly, edgy, a daytime look, a nighttime one, etc. They may be pinks and purples but you can create some gorgeous combos with this product. Finally, in the bottom compartment you get a little Tokidoki charm.  This particular palette came with Adieu, a French character that is so cute.  I just let her live in the palette itself but you can attach her to a bracelet, necklace, keychain, dog collar, or wherever else you can think of.

So why did this make my holiday list?  These colours are so gorgeous and complement each other nicely.  Plus, for the price and cuteness of this palette, I think it would make a fabulous gift.  Just a heads up for all you Black Friday hunters out there, these Chromatico palettes will be $10 USD ($12 CDN) this Friday on sephora.com (not sure if the price will be honoured in store as well), so if you want to get your hands on this, don’t miss this deal!
