I have tried a few thing from Kaja before and I liked what I tried. So I decided to get some more. After all how can I resist brown eyeshadow. And with a name like Chocolate Dahlia, I was a goner. I also got a cushy vibe lip stain in Satin Sheets. Here is my review of Kaja Beauty Chocolate Dahlia Eyeshadow Trio and Satin Sheets Lip Stain.
Sephora says Beauty Bento Bouncy Shimmer Eyeshadow Trio is “A stacked, creamy, powder eyeshadow in curated trios of shimmers or combinations of matte and shimmer shades.” This product is an Allure Best of Beauty award winner.
Kaja Cushy Vibe Full Pigment Moisturizing Lip Stain is a high pigment lip stain.

Packaging
Kaja Bento Bouncy Shimmer Eyeshadow Trio in Chocolate Dahila comes packaged in a bite-sized shimmer stacks or trios of matte and shimmer pigments. It is super compact and easy to travel with and has a mirror.
Kaja Cushy Vibe Full Pigment Moisturizing Lip Stain is packaged in a cute tube. The color of the tube corresponds with the shade of the product. I love Kaja's cute minimalistic packaging.
Formula
You can apply all Kaja Bento Bouncy Shimmer Eyeshadow Trios with your fingers. The shades are super smooth, pigmented and blend beautifully. Kaja Beauty is cruelty free.
Kaja Cushy Vibe Full Pigment Moisturizing Lip Stain does not have silicones. It is a lightweight, velvety and smooth lip stain that dries to a matte finish. I detect a slight fruity aroma.
My Experience
Overall I like Chocolate Dahlia and Satin Sheets.
If you prefer neutral shades, snag Chocolate Dahlia. The shades go from light to medium to dark. The shades are super pigmented, smooth and blend seamlessly. I love how compact this is. It is perfect for travel and to create a simple day time look. In Sephora pics Chocolate Dahlia looks pinkish, however it is neutral brown in IRL.
Satin Sheets Cushy Vibe Lip Stain is a blue based red. The doe foot applicator takes out more product than I require. Therefore I apply the product to the center of the lip and blend it out. Even if I sheer it out the pigment is there. The stain does not budge. I have applied this even when my lips have not been in perfect condition. The stain does not accentuate dry lips. Most importantly it does not bleed into or settle into lip lines.
Pros
- Cute functional, minimalistic packaging
- Cruelty free
Cons
- None that I can think of
Where to buy
Kaja products are sold at Sephora. Chocolate Dahlia Trio retails for $21. Satin Sheets is a sold out product. It retails for $18, I think. Since it is sold out I do not have access to the website information. I hope Sephora restocks it in the near future.
