Chanel’s eyeshadow quads (aka immediate credit rating card debt) are one of my weaknesses. For months, whenever I’d hit a Chanel counter I’d go directly for the quads, fiddling joyfully with them as well as searching for my next preferred palette.
But a while ago, while at Nordstrom peeping the summertime collection, I chose to swatch all of the Ombre Essentielle Soft Touch Eyeshadow singles. I liked them all! Hello, much more credit rating card debt.

I’m thankful I didn’t neglect the singles since the colors seem richer as well as much more dynamic than those in the quad.
Unfortunately, as far as eyeshadows go, the singles ain’t affordable ($27.50, eep!), however if high-end makeup is your thing then these shadows belong in your collection. They’re offered in matte, shimmer as well as satin completes as well as are available in a whopping 25 different shades.
On the Nordstrom as well as Neiman Marcus sites there are only 24 of them listed; Midnight, the elusive 25th shade, is only offered on the internet from Chanel.

I grabbed two of the shades, Safari (a shimmery gray-taupe) as well as the restricted edition Nomade (a great light pink with gold shine sparkles), as well as this week they made their method into my workday makeup rotation.
While you can mix as well as match the Ombre Essentielle Soft Touch Eyeshadows, I choose utilizing the two shades I have all by their lonesome. Individually, they’ve been excellent for producing easy laundries of color over the entire eyelid.
When I utilize them I apply a layer of eyeshadow primer first, like as well dealt with shadow Insurance. Then, I get one of three brushes — the MAC 252, MAC 217 or the Sephora around shadow clean from the Smokey Eye clean kit. any type of one of the three can do the job.
I swipe the clean across the pan to tons it up with color, however before applying I tap it against the side of the sink to discharge any type of excess shadow.
Gently patting my eyelid with the clean has provided me much better results than when I swept the clean back as well as forth. I do it up until I’ve got an even layer of color on each eye.
