Chanel Reflets D' Ombre Quad and Wild Rose Glossimer

As I stated in the previous post, I purchased the Reflets D'Ombre Quad and Wild Rose Glossimer.  Both I have passed over again and again, but because of the Master Class, I finally tried out and loved!




More pictures after the jump!

The Reflets D'Ombre Quad contains a shimmering chocolatey taupe (which looks more plummy brown on me), a white with golden shimmer (for you MAC fanatics, think Solar White, but better), a shimmering light gold, and a shimmering deep teal (which ends up more forest green on me).  The shadows are silky smooth, pigmented, and blend like a dream.  This is such a pretty quad, and I have a feeling it will be quite versatile.










Wild Rose Glossimer is a beautiful mauve with silver, pink and lilac sparkles.  It's a bit more pigmented than the glossimers of late, so it is easily worn on its own.  I'm not entirely sure why I overlooked Wild Rose because shimmering pinks are totally my bag.










swatchcat C was on hand to approve of my purchases and to supervise the swatching.  He's quite excellent at supervision.

    SL - I too have a gigantic Chanel wishlist. Luckily everything I want it perm, so I can get it piece by piece.

    swatchaholic - just about everything from Chanel is tempting! Those two items are perm, so you can save up for 'em!
