Rave Review: Brigitte Angelic Collection Romantic Prologue set!

Be Angelic and Romantic with Brigitte! Guys, seriously, for those of us ladies who can't resist a good bargain it's so damn hard to save when it comes to spending less on beauty items! I'll say that my collection is small for a beauty addict, all those ginormous ones on youtube where the girl has 4 ikea shelving units for just make up...no, mine is nothing like that! However when drugstore make up averages $15-25 USD here for single items like an eyeliner, foundation, eyeshadow palette a good deal can't be wasted!

Brigitte is a japanese brand that's super princess looking, something like Majolica Majorca but more refined and a bit more high end. I had seen that their eyeshadow palettes retail for $29 SGD at Watsons and their lipglosses at around $20 SGD. So when I saw this set selling at Sasa for $34 I just HAD TO GET IT. DON'T BLAME ME.

Continue below for the review of the set!

Packaging!

First off, just look at how nicely this set was packaged! This brand is still considered drugstore but 'high end' drugstore at least for asian standards, the prices of the products from Brigitte are from $15-35 SGD. For those prices I'd expect solid practical packaging and since it's Japanese I would like the products to be sort of cutesy! Brigitte of course delivers all of that! The outer box is lovely with a pink color with rose motifs all over the back and on the front. It's very sleekly done and isn't just a cookie cutter looking box packaging.

The same rose/pink floral packaging theme continues with the packaging of the false lashes.  Super princess-like, delicate and it does look angelic and romantic because of the pretty soft girly look.  The eyeshadow palette packaging is super pretty too. I like how the print on the front looks like it's a mirror frame and the clear area where you see the shadow is sort of like where the mirror would be! 

Lastly there is the lipgloss. It's super simple, a tube with a doe foot applicator but I am a fan of how they continued the princess like design with the lace type pattern on the tube! Every product has a design that fits the theme/color scheme and they all look like their part of a collection!

There were a few choices when it came to these sets in store but I just loved these eyeshadow shades! They are my type of 'go to' shades for any occasion, I love having a shimmery pink, bronze and dark brown and the cream matte is a plus for highlight under the brow or putting in the inner corner!

Out of the four shades, the cream is the only matte which I really appreciate and the rest are super fine shimmery shades, all which I love! You can do super simple to a smokier pinky bronze eye with this quad! The texture of both finishes of shadow are very consistent, smooth and pigmented. These shadows also blend together and out like a dream. I've been using them on top of some kind of eye primer at all times and they last as long as I want them to. I really love this quad and will be using it a lot!

The lipgloss that came in this set I was super excited about because of the shade! I've been trying to get more nude tones into my lip product collection! This gloss is a peachy nude light brown shade, it has super micro fine shimmers through it that's not noticeable on the lips. The color in the tube is exactly what you get on the lips, even with my super pigmented naturally rosy lips, this completely covers up my natural lip color!

This product is of a thicker texture and has a stickiness to it which allows it to stay in place on the lips without the feeling of it bleeding or shifting outside the lip line at all! I like how it looks flawless for a long while and fades away and gets dull with eating and drinking but it doesn't cause my lips to feel dry nor does product settle into lines. I actually personally prefer a more light and moist formula that requires more reapplication but this thicker textured formula is far more long lasting and I seriously just love the glossy finish!

These false lashes that came in the set I was also very excited about. I personally don't wear false lashes often, maybe once a month or even less. These lashes although in the photo look like regular fake lashes, they are in comparison to ardell or other asian brand lashes are about 1/4 shorter in length which makes them the perfect length for my eyes and probably many other asian ladies eyes!

I ALWAYS have to trim my lashes, both from Asian and Western brands, I will usually trim the outside. However with these, they are the perfect length for my lids! I really love the flirty, fluttery, thick and curled nature of these lashes. They aren't too long and I am the biggest fan of the gradual increase of length to the outside which is most 'natural looking' for false lashes in my opinion. The band on these are firm but soft and I had no issues with the band or the lashes coming off at the end of the day and irritating my eyelids like some do!

Paid: $34 SGD or about $26.70 USD (This was a special set sold at Sasa)

Recommend: YES! If by any chance you see these products individually or in this awesome set do get something! Their products are very consistency high quality and super easy to use!

Repurchase: Yes,  I've actually repurchased another eyeshadow palette when it was on sale!

Bottom line: This set is such an amazing deal, I would've kicked myself if I didn't get it so I'm so glad I got it! All three products in this kit are very high quality, I love the nude gloss an the quad is just seriously perfection for all occasions! Do check this brand out!

  2. The eye shadows look very rich and smooth! and the colors are just very nice, I'd def get a lot of wear for the shades ^^
    I am not familiar with the brand though, but it is ridiculous how expensive drugstore make up there in Singapore! SGD34 is ca. €22 which can get you something from MAC or Benefit or Lancome here in Germany.. Have you ever tried to order those japanese / korean make drugstore make up brands on ebay? I believe they must be much cheaper there, I always get mine from there :-)

  9. The lip gloss looks amazing on you, so is the falsies! & I love how the eyeshadows are soooo pigmented! I also don't own draws and draws of makeup likes those Youtubers lol; I may seem like I am always hauling and a lot of people thinks I have a whole office full of makeup!

  12. Wow, I love that this set came with false eyelashes! Which have the perfect amount of volume for a natural look. The eyeshadow colours are very typical of Japanese shades, but they have amazing pigmentation compared to some of my Japanese palettes. And the lipgloss looks super sexy.

    Can't wait till my trip to Singapore in Dec so I can pick up some Japanese goodies ^^
