Hello Kitty Say Hello Palette and Apple Balm: Hello Makeup!

hellokittysayhellopalette.jpghellokittyapplebalm.jpg

I love Hello Kitty – believe me I do – but I have no desire to look like her, so I’m not so sure about this collection. Is it for kids, you wonder? No way! I would never encourage JonBenét Ramsey behavior. The Say Hello Palette, with its generous selection of colors (four eye shadows and four lip glosses – god forbid you wear it all at once!) is very “child beauty pageant.” But I might consider the Apple Balm, as it satisfies your Hello Kitty nostalgia fix without encouraging you to apply clown makeup. And the taste is like all the Sanrio candy flavors – yum! The subtle red gives a hint of color and really does hydrate the lips, and the packaging is super-cute. Hello Kitty Say Hello Palette for $35 and Hello Kitty Apple Balm for $9.

  1. Oh, this is perfect as a commemoration of the maker of ‘Hello Kitty’ character, who just died in the tsunami in Japan. *wanting to buy this to respect her*

  2. Flashback to my childhood! The lip balm looks so cute and it’s affordable :). I’ve been on a lip balm binge…just re-purchased my fave Naughty by Night Lip Kit (http://bit.ly/gAdXdI), and may need to purchase this balm, too!

  3. I don’t think we should ‘dis children’s beauty pageants by calling it Jon Benet Ramsey behavior. What if she enjoyed the beauty pageants which I like to imagine she did. No one knows WHY she was murdered but let’s not mix the idea of murder & child beauty pageants & making fun of Jon Benet all in one review. OK?
