Chanel Illusion D'Ombre Long Wear Luminous Eyeshadow
Fab!
Ultra rich, ultra luxurious eye shadows. I have three out of the six. The texture of these shadows are like nothing else own. Although expensive, they are worth it me becuase the colour pay-off is intense without any primer or cream base colour needed. If any more come out in this range I'll be purchasing them as they worth the investment and can be used in a variety of looks.
luxury
i personally own 83 illusoire which is a mauve/purple/taupe color. I have worn this with just mac's cork and tete a tint in the crease and got so many compliments. i also wear it with some black tied and carbon and it looks like a million bucks! i don't care for the brush that comes with it. it makes the product ball up and i end up wasting product rather than getting it on my eye. i use a spatula or a small concealer brush to get product out, i also apply with a shader or concealer brush, fingers work well too. i blend with mac 217 if needed. i recently just purchased 85 mirifique thinking that i could make an excellent new years look but it seemed trickier to work with because it is a dark color. i wanted to return it but now i am having second thoughts. i could probably use it as a base for sugarpill's stella loose shadow.
i have worn this shadow all day long, a little goes a long way and if you have oily lids like me, i would put an eyeshadow base. i use nars eyeshadow base and it works really well.
so amazing
I am IN LOVE with these. They are super long lasting on my oily lids, even if I don't use primer. The colours are so beautiful. I love the texture and they blend like a dream. Everyone needs at least one of these in their collection!
Pretty nice eyeshadow. I bought 4 of them, my fav are black, white and green. i also bough violet but not really obsessed with it. it good eye shadow, i would give them 4 out of 5. not sure that i would buy them again.
These are a goldmine. I know, 36 dollars for one of those pots is pretty steep. I've owned mine since the release and I still have not made a dent into mine, and I use them everyday. I bought Illusoire, Epatant, Mirifique, Emerveille, and Ebloui. I didn't buy Fantasme at the time because I didn't think I would use it as much, and boy am I kicking myself right now. Fantasme is still sold out nationwide, and that is really crappy. You DO want to make sure to NOT leave the pot open as you work on your eyes, because the contents will dry and shrink. So please, please, PLEASE make sure you are closing the pots nice and tight. You can apply with fingers, quickshadow brush, and I use a combination of both. Unlike other cream shadows, these are nice because you can blend right away with your regular shadows. You don't have a time limit like the MUFE colors, and they give LONG lasting shimmer and color all day. They are buildable, and can be used as liners. If your looking to treat yourself, I say you induldge in Chanel and buy these little miracle workers.
SO PRETTY!
The shade that I bought is called Illusoire (it's a purplish dark grey with just a hint of taupe). It's very flattering and I mostly use it on its own to create a soft smokey eye. The application is very easy because the eye shadow simply glides on the lids and the brush that is included is good for packing the color, but not so much for blending.
The glitter is gorgeous and since this is a cream, there is absolutely no fallout.
The price is very high and although these colors are stunning and full of pretty shimmer, I do believe that something similar could be found for a lower price.
HAVE ONE...NOW MUST OWN THEM ALL!!!
I was hesitant to buy this at first because it's $36, but I'm SO glad I did! I have the color #85 "Mirifique" which is a GORGEOUS black with multicolored shimmer. It applies like a dream whether you use your finger or a brush. I've used it as both a shadow & a liner. I don't put anything over it because the color is that beautiful. Lasts all day. Can't wait to try the rest! Will look great for those New Year's Eve smokey eyes!
You need to own one!!!:)
Super versatile product! It can be worn as a shadow, eyeliner, base, etc. I love the consistency! It has a creamy marshmallow feeling. You can keep the color light or build it up easily. It is definately long wear. It works great with powder over it. They have a perfect color for everyone! The light white one would be a beautiful highlight. The one I personally own is number 83 Illusoire. The color of it is to die for!!!!! It is a mushroomy, sparkly, metal gray and looks great for a smokey eye! I wil definately be wearing this all through fall and winter:) The price is around $35, I do believe, but is to me is worth every penny.
Amazing eye candy from chanel! Great as primers, great as liners, great as highlighers.
I find it easier to work with using my fingers. I feel if I warm the product up it's easier to blend propperly.
If you're going to use this in combination with a powder eyeshadow, I would recommend using the cream first.
I need them all!
Love love love, from the spongey like texture thats easy to apply right through to the subtle shimmer it gives to the lid. Amazing quality and colours, I only have the one - the purpley dark mauvey one which is a lovely Autumn hue - but I came away from the department store with my hand smeared with all the lovely colours!!! I want them all!!!
