My Pick from Dior Fall 2012 – 5 Couleurs 774 Golden Savanna Review

I have another thing to show you from Dior Fall 2012 collection, it’s the 5 Couleurs 774 Golden Savanna eye palette. When I first see the promo pictures of this collection in beauty blogosphere, I knew this is the MUST HAVE thing! This is my first ever Dior Eye Palette. If you have been seeing Dior Eye Palette in memoiselle, it must be Monica’s ;) I am very excited to own my first Dior 5 couleurs, especially when this is a limited edition :)

Firstly let’s talk about the packaging. Golden Savanna packaging is not as good as Dior Golden Khaki that I have reviewed before. The case is made of plastic, just the same as what other Dior 5 couleurs are made of.

The pigmentation of this eye palette is fine. Although I hope this can be more buttery and smooth, this is enough to satisfy me. Although it is not as buttery and smooth as what I expect it to be, I am surprised that the fall out is very minimal. When I use this palette for these 3 days, I have not experienced major fallouts that upsets me. You can see the swatch of the palette above. The colors are very wearable and versatile for everyday use.

Another thing that I love about this palette is that many of the colors have semi matte finish. I have lots of shimmering neutral eyeshadow colors and this would be a great complement to my neutral eyeshadow stash. You can see in the swatch above that the finish is somewhat matte but still have that beautiful shine.

I have done a look with Golden Savanna,

 

The makeup products used in this palette:

Eyes: Dior Golden Savannah, Giorgio Armani Maestro Quad #4 (I wish I could do a review about this very soon), Revlon Eye Pencil in Black, the lashes are from Taiwan (there’s no brand name in the packaging)

Cheeks: Chanel Joues Contraste blush in Rouge and in Or (I need to make use of this more!) and Burberry Sheer Summer Glow (I have been using this a lot and I hope to see the pan! :) )

Have you picked anything from this collection? Tell me about that :)

Thank you for reading.

  1. OH MY GOSH Meryl–you’re so right! This is obviously a must-have–I can see that straightaway from your photos. I was already in love, but now it’s settled: I HAVE to have this! :P

  2. Golden Savannah looks beautiful on you! I’m new to Dior shadows as well but I’m quickly falling in love. Are there any other Dior palettes that you’re eyeing?

  3. What a really gorgeous quad :) This will look beautiful in the fall as well!

  4. The shades in this quad are right up my alley – it’s so tempting!! If only Dior wasn’t so expensive and overprice here in Sydney!

  5. Oh it is so gorgeous, very up my alley. I am trying to resist because the couple of Dior palettes I own have been sorely neglected by me. Must not look! I dig the second colour from the left, I love a good warm gold colour.

  6. I love the colors of this eyeshadow palette! It looks very muted, but still very pretty. It is definitely colors I would wear. Thanks for swatching!
