No matter how much money we willingly (or not) spend on new makeup launches and the amount of sleep we give up just to wake up earlier to perfect our winged eyeliner, we cannot deny how makeup acts as our shield and life-saviour. Okay, it sounds really cheesy because y’all probably already know this post is going to be about Marvel, but c’mon, it’s true! Makeup helps conceal our designer eye bags, panda-like dark eye circles and blemishes that we really rather do without. So, isn’t it apt that THEFACESHOP’s latest compact cushion cover is of Captain America’s shield? And don’t worry boys, the collection also includes a small range of products for men, so there’s no need to feel left out!
As mentioned earlier, ladies will get to keep their very own mini Captain America shield that is actually a cushion compact in disguise. Loaded with SPF50+ and PA+++ UV protection, the anti-darkening cushion apparently maintains its colour on the skin even in high temperatures and humid environment, lasting up to 12 hours. Perfect for Singapore weather. There are four available shades, two of which have a soft glow finish and the other two, a natural finish.
Also look out for their 2-in-1 Curling Mascara that has 2 wands of different thickness in one tube. The slim wand gets the hard-to-reach lashes in the inner corners while the thicker one curls up the outer ends. Four colours are available, with Marvel Avengers such as Black Widow, Iron Man and Spider-Man fronting the packaging. There are also Ink Gel Pencil Liners to match with the mascaras, and they are smudge-proof and water-proof (because heaven forbid superheroes save the day with smudged eyeliner).
The collection also includes four nail duo sets, five shades of Spider-Man-themed matte lipsticks and three shades of Iron Man Metal Lip Colour that comes with metal tips! Cool, huh? The Metal Lip Colours have a glittery and glossy finish and contains Argan oil extract that moisturises the lips. And did we mention their eyeshadow palettes come with a short comic strip hidden inside?
And for the boys who really want to own a shield as well, THEFACESHOP also has a multi-line cushion for men. But boys, before you snide at the idea of putting on makeup, this compact cushion actually protects your skin from harmful UV rays and corrects your skin tone at the same time! If you don’t know the importance of putting on sunscreen, read this before shrugging the thought off. There are also Sun BB Cream and Sports Sun Cream as well for those who do sports regularly under the sun.
THEFACESHOP x Marvel collection is fairly affordable, with prices ranging from KRW6,000 for the nail polish duo to KRW35,000 for a special set for men. The products are limited edition and are currently only available in South Korea. However, you can engage the help of travelers via Airfrov (there are already people who made requests for this collection) to help get them for you, or purchase them online from kollectionk.com.
