Korea Special: Too Cool For School - Too Cool Art Class (Art Class Pastel Drawing Kit)

Too Cool For School - I just love that name :) Too Cool For School is a school-themed brand based in London, New York and Korea. Their products are just hilarious, as you can find all your school stationary mixed with new and hip cosmetics. So what exactly is this "Art Class Pastel Drawing Kit?" It's just eyeshadow. But not your ordinary eyeshadow. In the box, they give you 4 colors of eyeshadow, green, blue, yellow and brown in the form of blocks that resemble your clay blocks in your art or sculpture class.

Packaging:


It's very vintage looking with the font and design on the box. But other than that, it's just four blocks of eyeshadow with two eyeshadow brushes in a magnetic cardboard box. It is minimalistic and creative, but I worry about the hygiene of the eyeshadow. What if bacteria and moist gets in and effects my eyeshadow?

Packaging Rating: 2/5 

Product Rating:


All of the colors are very subtle, and very light colored. I was going to upload a swatch test, but my phone camera could barely pick up any of the shades :( but other than that, I really like the colors, very warm and fun. But again, I have a problem with the shape of the blocks. When I first opened it, the blocks were wrapped in plastic. But while peeling them off and trying to put the blocks back in again, I accidentally snapped the blue eyeshadow block and the green eyeshadow block in two D:

Product Rating: 3/5 

Final Thoughts:

This was an impulse buy, and I regret buying this product because now there are quality and hygiene concerns and two eyeshadow blocks are broken. So really, this product was quite "meh".

Pros: Colors are very nice and fit for the summer season :)
Cons: Packaging, blocks easily break, hygiene issues
