Three Daring Voyager Cream Shadow

Hello guys - Fall is finally here (Luckily this year we get a dry one) and with the shifted sun and temperature and humidity dialing down - It's the perfect time playing with eyeshadow and doing swatches after work. Since I realized I have way too many toys around, I am focusing on highend products: Not only it reduces cluttering, it's also a new aesthetics that became more appealing. 

2019 marks the 10th Anniversary of Japanese Brand Three (an highend, nature-oriented brand under Pola that has very chic and subdued color schemes). I have been seeing the brand a lot on Instagram and have been quite interested in their liquid eyeshadow (many are muted gray taupe). 

For their spring 2019 - Three released a range of potted eye color singles named Daringly Voyager. I spotted them online for a reasonable price. I believe they are 3600yen a piece but I got them a tad cheaper from Hong Kong.  

The box is  simple and textured - looking quietly luxurious. 

The most talked about shade is 02 Dare to See (a mustard yellow that's super trendy) and I also like the deep green of 03 Dare to Touch. 

Anyway I got shade 04 Dare to Try, 05 Dare to Love and 06 Dare to Live.

The pot is plastic with gummy caps - I hate gummy packaging but I would give Three a pass - they just produce such brilliant color stories. 

04 Dare to Try is a golden amber brown

The color has a soft gold sheen and a fine pink mist - It's very subtle and it only look like a soft warm glow on the lids. 

This might not look much but it's extremely wearable and doesn't add on to the number of items going on. With this, it's impossible to over-accesorize.

05 Dare to Love is a warm Orange Red

This color has a golden and fuchsia sheen 

Daring Voyager wears like a thin oil balm - It's extremely sheer (sheerer even by Japanese standard) and clear on the eyes. 

I had to layer a lot just for it to show up in picture - But that just makes this daring shade very wearable and classy. 

06 Dare to Live is a slightly dusty plum

This shade has a purple and golden sheen - I normally prefer my purple mauve that leans silver pewter but this plum doesn't look too red on my at all! 

I layered for it to show but it looks good (non muddy) even when it's worn sheerly.  Since the formula is a solid lightweight oil, it nourishes like an eye balm but can rub off on warmer days.

I normally like a glossy and shiny look but the subdued finish from Three is so unique! While this brand is too expensive, I will save up for more as they will get lot of use.
