Cle de Peau revamped their Eye Shade Quads with twelve new shades ($110 every). They’re refillable and the compacts are offered individually ($75 for the eye quad and $35 for the mirrored compacts). They offered out in a short time on-line at Cle de Peau however you’ll be able to nonetheless discover them at Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus, Bloomingdale’s and Saks Fifth Avenue. (Some shades seem like unique to the Cle de Peau website.)

I ordered 4 of the shades and the Cle de Peau group kindly despatched just a few others for me to strive. There are fairly just a few gorgeous neutrals and whereas quite a lot of you may have talked about all of the neutrals look the identical from the compact. Aspect by facet loads of them look actually comparable, however I can guarantee you there are noticeable variations within the swatches.

These Eye Shade Quads have an excellent easy texture that appears like silk. They’ve an nearly bouncy texture to them. Every quad has a primer shade within the backside left nook that feels slightly thicker/creamy.

Pigment varies by quad however general I’d say colours run on the softer facet however are buildable. I wouldn’t name the softness “sheer” for the reason that pigment is fairly good, however a number of the shades do take some constructing. I swatched these with a fairly heavy hand on high of the Tatcha Liquid Silk Canvas Primer. On the eyes the shimmer isn’t as intense as in my arm swatches.

Seaside Pebbles 2 is probably the most pure/impartial palette with a stupendous mixture of tan, brown and pale ivory shimmer.

Starlight 7 might be my favourite with the very best mixture of peachy pink champagne, tan brown, impartial cream primer and a mushy however deep brown.

Heat Ocean Sundown 8 has the prettiest mixture of softer pink/peach tones. The brown/plum is on the softer facet when layered on high of the opposite powders, nevertheless it applies with extra pigment on naked lids or with a moist brush.

Look sporting:

Caviar Pearls 6 is a purple lovers dream come true with that gorgeous lavender purple, taupe and deeper cool brown.

Ocean Dawn 4 is a cool-toned mixture of tan and brown.

Coral Reef 5 is probably the most pure on my pores and skin because the tones match my pores and skin tone the closest. The shades pull extra satiny matte than the opposite quads.

If you’d like a staple eyeshadow palette you’ll be able to put on simply with out loads of effort there are many nice choices with the brand new Cle De Peau eyeshadow launch. High quality is nice, shade vary is gorgeous, heaps to like right here. Nevertheless in order for you colours with excessive influence and ultra-rich pigment, I’ll say that I believe these is likely to be too sheer for you.

Fast word if impartial eyeshadows aren’t your factor there are some enjoyable combos with inexperienced, lilac, purple, pink and blue too.

The largest draw back for me is the value. I don’t know that I can name these definitely worth the splurge at $110+ every (regardless that I splurged on 4). For the value and comparable pigment the Dior 5 Couleurs, NARS Palettes or Charlotte Tilbury are a greater purchase.

General love the standard and colours. There appears to be a rising development for refillable make-up whether or not it’s eyeshadow, basis, lipstick and so forth. Having the refillable choice isn’t actually a giant promoting level to me. If these quads (compact and eyeshadow) had been priced on the refill worth I’d be extra inclined to present them a extra glowing constructive overview. The value nearly makes me really feel just like the Natasha Denona or Pat McGrath Palettes are a steal.
