I’ve been a fan since the brand’s inception, but to be frank, there was no real occasion for the visit except to kill time before the ballet. If anything, I came for the brrch floral arrangements. I somehow left with more Lidstars, and another Birthday Balm Dotcom. For me, the Lidstars were Glossier’s most exciting launch yet. I’ve never been a much of an eye makeup wearer (save for occasions that call for a full face), but I’ll always have a weak spot for a soft, shimmering shadow. My first foray was a tiny lilac Chanel cream eyeshadow (which in retrospect, was very similar to Glossier’s Lily Lidstar), a beloved gift from a far-removed aunt—an ex-editor at ELLE Taiwan. It was easily one of my most precious possessions: that black rounded but square compact; the tiny mirror; the blue, pink, and silver shimmer-infused lavender. I loved it, feared it (it was color!), and wore it in secret when at home. Nearly a decade later and I still harbor the same affection toward a cream, shimmer shadow. It’s more a nostalgic indulgence than anything, but somehow I ordered two Lidstars on launch date…http://kimberlypearl.co/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/IMG_9324.jpg
