Kaja Coral Sunrise Beauty Bento Eyeshadow Trio Review & Swtaches

Christine — Sat, 13 May 2023 21:00:00 +0000

Coral Sunrise

Kaja Coral Sunrise Beauty Bento Bouncy Shimmer Eyeshadow Trio ($26.00 for 0.09 oz.) is one or two new-for-spring trios. It includes one more sparkly/flaky shimmer, one sparkly shimmer, and one matte shade. The three go together well, but the first shade is definitely larger particle sparkles so it might not be everyone’s cup o’ tea!

Forest Night

Kaja Forest Night Beauty Bento Bouncy Shimmer Eyeshadow Trio ($26.00 for 0.09 oz.) is one of two new-for-spring trios that includes one very sparkly shade, one shimmer, and one matte shade. The shimmer was so weak; it was one of the worst-performing shades I’ve tried from a Kaja trio, which are normally one of my favorite products!

Mauve Bouquet

Kaja Mauve Bouquet Beauty Bento Bouncy Shimmer Eyeshadow Trio ($26.00 for 0.09 oz.) includes a new, ultra-sparkly shade (no plastic glitter) paired with two shades that use existing formulas (but are new shades). This trio wasn’t all that mauve-toned to me, though! The shimmers performed well, but the matte was more powdery and sheerer than anticipated..

Kaja Peach Madeline Beauty Bento Bouncy Shimmer Eyeshadow Trio ($26.00 for 0.09 oz.) is a new peach-themed trio that includes a new formula (first shade), though it didn’t seem quite as over-the-top sparkly as expected based on the description and more comparable to existing high-shimmer shades from past trios. All three shades were pigmented, blendable, and long-wearing.

Neutral Moment

Kaja Neutral Moment Beauty Bento Bouncy Shimmer Eyeshadow Trio ($21.00 for 0.09 oz.) includes three matte eyeshadows in a more velvety, less powdery formula than the brand has released previously. I was surprised to see that this one and the other one launched with it were both rather light-leaning, as Kaja has been a brand that has released most of their trios without putting in very light matte shades–this is the darker of the two. The quality was so-so; the middle shade was sheerer and more powdery, while the other two shades were better.

Modern Beige

Modern Beige is a light beige with warmer undertones and a matte finish. It had nearly opaque pigmentation in a single layer, which applied evenly to bare skin and blended out well with minimal fallout. The texture felt velvety and smooth without being too powdery nor too firmly-pressed in the pan. It wore nicely for seven and a half hours before fading a bit.

Java Jazz

Java Jazz is a darker, golden beige with muted, olive undertones and a barely-there golden shimmer through a more matte finish. The texture was very soft, smooth, and finely-milled, but it was somewhat powdery, which led to more medium coverage. I was able to build it up slightly, but it was never fully opaque. It lasted well for seven and a half hours on me.

Cocoa Dip

Cocoa Dip is a medium, muted brown with subtle, warm undertones and a matte finish. The texture was very smooth and silky with minimal powderiness, and it “melted” slightly on my skin, which gave it a smoother finish than I expected. It had mostly opaque, buildable pigmentation that stayed on well for eight hours.
