The palette comes in a darker case than normal, more of a gunmetal colour. The mirrored palette contains 3 eye shadows, and one blush. Each pan is split into a lighter and darker tone. Each pan is embossed with dolphin engravings (five percent of the sale will be donated to help save dolphins in Greece); with a shimmery over spray, which wore off after two uses.
Here is the palette without the overspray

Chantecaille shadows have a fine, smooth, easy to blend texture; the only thing I find is that if I blend too much I seem to blend the colour away.
Your not getting intense pigment from these eyeshadows but it gives a really easy to wear neutral day time look. The finish is a slight sheen/shimmer.

I bought this from SpaceNK (http://www.spacenk.co.uk/home.do)
Japonesque 324 is a nice fluffy brush that fit stila blushes (and other tiny pans!) It's also great for sweeping a quick wash of eyeshadow onto lids.
ReplyDeleteIt looks so beautiful, but I still balk at the price...:-)

Guess which part of the palette instantly caught my eye? Still, for that price, as pretty as it looks and with the plus of the 5% for the lovely dolphins, I still think I can do without! Missed you, xx
ReplyDeleteThat palette is so pretty but eeek i could never ever afford it!
ReplyDeleteI bought it and although it's lovely to look at, I wish it had more pigmentation.
ReplyDeletei do not need this, i do not need this....aw who am i kidding. that thing is gorgeous!!
ReplyDeleteHi Peachgirl,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the rec, I've never tried Japonesque so will make a note of that.
Hi Nina,
Yes,I tried not to think about it too much before submitting my order :)
Hi Anna,
You no doubt have similar, I'm not good and controlled like you :) Glad to have you back x
Hi Lillian,
I know SpaceNK stores usually have limited edition Chantecaille on sale sometimes, in case you live near one :)
Hi Ammie,
I know what you mean, its funny that their eyeshadows are never very well pigmented but their blushers are usually too much pigment for me.
Hello Luv2smilexo,
:) I think I don't "need" over half of my collection really, I just cannot resist! Thanks for stopping by.
I'm more tempted by this than I have been by the LE palettes that are all in one pan (like the coral reef one). I have resisted though! I wish they wouldn't overspray, I'd much rather see the colour I'm buying straight off. It is a lovely colour combination though.
