Dollface Cosmetics Vanity Palette Box Opening

 I’m starting to take on fashion and beauty more seriously and since I need to practice on my eyeshadow application, I recently I ordered the Dollface Cosmetic’s Vanity Palette.

Dollface has a lot of options available from a small group of neutral palettes to a stunning 88-color palette. Out of all the options I was torn between the Vanity Palette or the 78 color palette. I don’t really want the 12 lipsticks that the Vanity Palette offers but I do want the highlight, blush and contour shades. I ended up buying the Vanity Palette because I have olive skin and being a Winter, deep vivid colors work best for my skin tone.

The Vanity Palette costs P1000 but of course I had to pay for the shipping so my total cost was P1085. I was kind of delayed paying because I’ve been really busy. Two days after paying I asked when I should be expecting my order and didn’t receive a reply. I was starting to feel scared but the next day…

My package arrived at my doorstep via Air 21 (which is the most practical logistics company IHMO).

After opening the plastic, I was greeted by a… suman… kidding haha.. it’s a bubble wrapped box. After unwrapping 1 meter of bubble wrap, there was another layer I needed to remove.

Dollface is bubble wrap crazy.  After unwrapping the 2nd sheet, there was another layer of bubble wrap to take off. I’m happy they’re making this much effort because I’ve heard that their palettes easily break and since logistics companies usually throw the packages without regards for what’s in it, I think it’s better to be safe and go crazy with bubble wrap than be sorry.

Also, I’m not so sure if I should be disappointed that they’ve mispelled my name or not. Haha

Finally! The box! I have to hand it to them, their packaging is stunning. But guess what’s inside. :3

That’s right! More bubble wrap! … and my palette.  I’m starting to think I bought a set of bubble wrap with a palette as an accessory.

So after removing the bubble wrap, the palette was also wrapped in a thin plastic cover and was well protected from scratches and prints. Notice their logo on the lower-right corner? Cute, huh?

Inside is the beautiful display of colors protected by a hard plastic.

All in all, I can say that I’m very impressed that Dollface does a great job ensuring that their product arrive in one piece and that product’s newness is preserved. I also appreciate their effort when it comes to packaging. I’m not so happy that I didn’t receive a text reply regarding my package but I can let it slide because I was delayed paying.

As for the product’s performance, I’ll leave that for another post.
