Mirabella is just introducing a new Holiday 2015 collection, Jewel Thief, with two new eye palettes and two lip crayons. I was lucky enough to receive one of the new eye palettes, Diamond Deceit, and one of the lip crayons, Wanted. Plus, they sent along Blackmail, a black eye crayon.
Jewel Thief Diamond Deceit Shadow Palette
What’s particularly unique about the collection is the eye palettes:
- the look of the palette: a 3D jewel-inspired design – two dangling jeweled earrings!
- a “second skin” formula that combines liquid and powder for shimmery, vibrant color.
The Diamond Deceit shadow palette has 5 shimmery shades:
- light rose gold
- diamond white
- silver
- aquamarine
- medium grey.
I like to use the rose gold shade as a highlighter as well as a shadow.
There is also a second palette called Lavender Larceny with rich purple shades that range from lilac to eggplant.
Amber Bowen, Mirabella Creative Director, gives some background on the new shadows: “We’re using a new technology that combines five shades into one 3D shadow, allowing the eyes to glow and look bejeweled for the holidays. I took my inspiration of gifting jewelry and packaging the shadows in a soft touch black compact similar to a jewelry box.”
The shadows are soft and buttery. Silicone along with olive oil-derived phytosqualene are two of the ingredients that give the shadows their smoothness. In addition, the formula hydrates the eye area which is great for over 40 gals! Pearls are what give these gorgeous shadows their iridescent finish. They are shimmery but not glittery so they are wearable for women of all ages. They do not require primer or even a brush. Amber Bowen says the best way to apply is with your fingertips! So easy.
The palette contains 7 g/0.25 oz. and is priced at $48 ($62.40 CAN). It is made in Italy.
Velvet Lip Pencils
I am in love with the Velvet Lip Pencil that I received in the shade, Wanted. Mirabella describes Wanted as a “rich berry shade”. I’d describe it was a pink/mauve. Just perfect for me, and I’ve been using it constantly since I received it.
The second shade in the collection is Vice, a neutral pink apricot.
Both lip pencils are highly pigmented and very moisturizing! They contain proprietary BerryFlux Vita, a raspberry extract, to soften lips. The lip crayon definitely goes on like velvet. It is soooooo easy to apply. On me, the lip crayon lasts for a few hours unless I eat something oily.
The Lip Crayon is priced at $25 ($32.50 CAN). It contains 2.3 g/0.081 oz. Made in Italy.
Eye Crayon: Blackmail
The eye crayon must be a new product too, even though it wasn’t listed on the press release that I received, because I wasn’t able to find it yet on the Mirabella website.
Regardless, I LOVE this eye crayon! It is the deepest black. It is so soft and buttery that it’s a breeze to apply. It smudges beautifully for a smoky eye. I like to use it to tightline my eyes.
Blackmail eye crayon is priced at $24. It contains 1.8g/0.064 oz. Made in Italy.
The Jewel Thief Collection will be available on October 1 which is next week already, Yay!

Scrumptious looking eye palette!
It really is a beauty and quite different from other palettes I have. A very interesting holiday palette, very New Year’s Eve-y, I think 🙂
I love the shades on you Allison! I haven’t had a chance to try the eyeshadow palette yet, but it does look pretty. I have been using the lip pencil, and love it. Such a flattering color! Thanks for sharing. 🙂

That lip pencil is the best! I’m so happy they sent Wanted rather than the other shade. And the palette really is fun, and the color combo seems quite unique to me. The background shade is also lovely as a highlighter! I hope you love it too, Amber! Look forward to your review 🙂
Very pretty! I really love that lip pencil.

Thanks, Heather – just playing around with the shades. Fun to try something new for sure!
That eye palette is absolutely stunning!

With the 3D effect, the embossed earrings and the rather unusual shades that say New Year’s Eve to me, Diamond Deceit really is amazing!
That eye palette looks great!
It’s so unique, Leigh! Love the shades and the 3D embossed earrings 🙂
okay that palette is STUNNING! I love the colors on you!

Thank you, Brooke! I think it’s such a unique little palette. I love everything about it
The eye palette is really pretty. I will have to check out the other one because I would probably like the shades even more!

Yes, I know you are a purple lover! I would love to have seen that one as well, though silvery shades and the pinky-peach are good for me.
The products look great, Love the look you created with them.
Thank you, Alps!
I love Mirabella! I can’t wait for this!

I strongly recommend trying the two crayons – they’re beyond amazing! And the palette is just so unique. Love it!
Thanks for the review. We are happy you enjoy! The price for the Blackmail Eye Crayon is $24!
Enjoy! Launches Oct. 1, 2015 at fine salons and spas.
Thank you so much for the info, John! I’ll amend the review and add it. I couldn’t find that on the press release 🙂
Iam loving that lip color. The shadow palette design is really cute- love the drop earrings.

Isn’t the palette the cutest?! I am addicted to the lip crayon. It’s heaven
I’m a sucker for lip crayons and that one is sooo pretty! And while the eyeshadows are pretty and the palette itself is cute I prefer my shadow in pans so they’re easier to use.
The Wanted lip crayon really is all that! I hear ya, Victoria, about shadows in pans rather than in all-in-one palettes. So far I haven’t had a problem using the palette, but it may be a bit more difficult once the 3Dness disappears but hopefully I’ll be able to manage it. But certainly if you like to depot, this isn’t the right palette.
I love how cute the design of the palette! I also love, love, love the shade of the lip crayon. It is so my kind of color.

The Wanted Lip Crayon is so darn wearable that I’ve been wearing it every day since I got it! You’d love it
I’ve never heard of Mirabella! I’m not such a fan of those eyeshadow colors, but I do like the lip crayon! That’s a gorgeous shade. I prefer lighter pink-ish toned lip colors, so I feel like I’d wear that all the time!
Mirabella is a new-ish brand of mineral makeup, used by professionals and sold in salons/spas and online. I love everything I’ve tried from them so far. The lip crayon is fabulous. I haven’t stopped wearing it since I got it!
Owww! That palette is so, so pretty I actually gasped aloud. I don’t think I’ve ever seen so pretty a design on any palette. I remember getting some Mirabella lip crayons in my lip factory box. I have to dig them up.

It really is so different. And the shades are great. I’m wearing it now 🙂

Isn’t it the cutest?!
That lip pencil looks gorgeous, but oh my gosh the design on that palette- love!

I’m not very familiar with this brand, but everything looks really pretty. I especially love that little eyeshadow palette. The shadows are metallic, and sound so smooth!

I turned my head the minute I saw the design on the shadow palette. What a striking combination. I’ll have to look up the purple one when it becomes available. Great shade on that lip crayon.
Same here, Marcia. I’d love to see what the purple palette looks like. The collection launches on October 1, so next week I’ll be checking the website. The lip crayon really is wonderful, great shade and so velvety.
Wow!! the diamond deceit palette is such a beauty to look at.
I agree. It’s just so darn cute!
You look so pretty! I love the packaging of that palette! Gorg!

These are all very pretty. I think the eye shadow palette has such sweet and soft shades and I like the pencils too.
It’s a wonderful collection. Now I’m eager to see the other shades too!
That eye pencil sounds like a winner! Gotta love a blacker than black black 🙂

I love how you used the eye pencil in the look you showed today. I’m going to try to emulate it!
I love the design of this eye shadow palette. So pretty! The shades are gorgeous too. I’m enjoying the previews of the holiday collections. Thanks for sharing this one. 🙂
The Diamond Deceit palette is so pretty and the raised jeweled earring design so innovative, I think. Yes, it’s fun to start to see the holiday makeup…but so early!
