Mikyajy DISCO I Boxed Beauty
I am no expert in creating different eye looks and when it comes to smoky eyes, its better if we don’t mention it. Half of the time (OK, most of the time) I end up looking as if I am a heavily depressed maniac in a Horror Hollywood flick! And so no prizes for guessing why I steer clear from smoky eyes but I can create perfect glittery smoky eyes with this thing and being a person who gets carried away easily I bought it on the advice of the Sales woman @ Mikyajy. But not being a makeup junky, I was feeling slightly guilty for spending almost 109 QR on a eye makeup Kit. Anyways, today I am reviewing the Mikyajy Disco I Boxed Beauty.

Cons of Mikyajy Disco I:
- The Shadow Glitter pencils are too light nearly invisible.
- Same goes with the Glitter mascaras,..very light & are in watery form.
- The Liquid Eye liner & Mascara if at all enters the eyes,causes a little burning sensation ,like minty sensation,not strong.
- The line & shadow pencil when applied on water line,Smudges.
Overall Thoughts:
The Eye Shadows Kit is Fabulous & has quiet nice pigmentation
My first ever perfect smoky eyes were created thanks to this little wonder.I am glad I bought this. It stays put for about 3 hours after that it kind of starts losing the charm. But that’s OK! May be with an eye primer it would stay more. Can be used on the waterline and for tight lining but I must add it does smudge when used as a liner. Its travel friendly, so instead of carrying your eye shadow box and brushes around, you just need to throw this Box in your handbag. If only the price was a bit low.
The Line & shadow pencil- Can be easily sharpened. No hassles.
Eye liner & Mascara are easy to apply.
I can say it’s a must have for people like me who who cannot create smoky eyes with eye shadows to save their life. For others, it is a pass.
Rating:
I would give it 3.80/5 ,..The glitter mascaras & the light Shadow glitter are an issue.
