Dior Edition Dentelle 5 Couleurs Coquette 743.
A beautiful lace embossment adorns the four outer shades which have the trademark buttery, silky texture Dior shadows are known for. Swatches on NC 35-40 skin, indoors, no flash. Swatches are clockwise, from top left, with the center shade at the end.
The shades are: a beigey taupe, a pale peach, a medium neutral smokey grey, a medium greyed purple and a matte pale pink with silver sparkles. The four outer colours are a satin finish, which means they are cross between a matte and a frost - luminous without being obviously frosty, an eye shadow texture which Dior does very well. The center colour is a matte finish - this is the only shade I don't care for, as the silver sparkles fall out immediately upon application. I think the four outer shades are wonderful though. They can function as neutrals but are a little bit more interesting than your avaerage brown. I think the purple is particularly gorgeous!

I LOVE Dior makeup -their eye makeup is particularly good. Once you try their mascara, you will never go back to the cheap stuff. And the shadows blend like a dream. Who woulda thunk it?! Thanks for the great post!
ReplyDeleteYes they definitely have some of the best e/s texture around, and the quints are just so chic!

ReplyDeleteGorgeous! I love Dior, everytime I buy something I'm almost tempted NOT to use it because it's almost like a little work of art right in your hands.
