Are you a sucker for unique/nice/sleek packaging?

I remember my husband telling me that men are attracted to anything shiny so that got me thinking....what am I drawn to when it comes to makeup.  Of course the packaging is the first thing that catches my eye.  And it always makes me wonder "why do I keep falling for it anyway? Well, for one, I would always think..."it would look nice on my vanity" :) or the ever constant "maybe the product is actually good" :)

Here are some of the products that I think have that unique packaging:

Makeup Review: Paul and Joe Creamy Matte Foundation

PACKAGING: Paul and Joe's Packaging is evocative of a 1950's boudoir glam.
It is very feminine with pastel colors.  Comes in a bottle with a small spatula.

CONSISTENCY: This  foundation is on the thick side because it is very creamy.  But this has a cream to powder finish which is very matte after application

COVERAGE: It has a medium to full coverage but very light on the skin, you can hardly notice or feel it on your face

SHADE AVAILABILITY: From what I saw there were 6 shades to choose from

OVERALL: I know it is on the expensive side (Php2,375.00) but it really gave me a matte finish which is something that I always try to achieve.  I think I found my HG foundation!!

* This also has a very slight perfume-y scent which reminds of  expensive cosmetics from long ago. 
Available at Rustan's Department Store.
