My First Dior Eyeshadow Quint!

I haven’t been buying makeup in months now, and to quench that bit of a dry spell, I succumbed to temptation a couple of weeks ago and bought this.

I’m so excited; I finally have a Dior quint eyeshadow palette of my own after drooling over so many for so long. Mind you, the one I bought wasn’t even from the current season. In fact, I have no idea when this palette was launched (some help, ladies?). Thanks to Strawberrynet and Geekchic‘s 10% discount, I managed to get this at AU$60.

Behold, the 5-colour iridescent eyeshadow palette in Sky Glow.

The packaging’s luxurious, and the shadows are really pretty. I swatched them, but didn’t show them here as the colours are pretty sheer. Still, the texture’s creamy, and I really like the blue. Can’t wait to try them out tonight when I head out to the cinema for Transformers 2 tonight.

Now that I’m holding the palette in my hands (well, holding it and then letting it go to type this out. Obsessed much?), I’m really tempted to get another one (or two. Or three). Especially the ones from the Summer 2009 collection.

I want these BAD *gulp*.


On another note, I received this in the mail yesterday.

20090630 Eyeko Freebies

Yep, they’re my Eyeko ambassador goodies. The cleansing wipes are going straight into my travel case. I’m going to try out something from Eyeko next. What with rave reviews from beauty bloggers, relatively low prices and free international shipping, I’m bound to stumble upon some gems. Oh and if you do shop at Eyeko, do enter the special code E2779 to receive a free gift with your order.

Happy Tuesday, ladies!

    Oh, you got the Sky Glow palette! It’s a gorgeous palette, hm? I have it too, but honestly, I haven’t used it that much, since I got so many new goodies recently… and the collection is still growing, hehe… 😀

    And I’m currently so in love with Japanese makeup, that I kinda neglect my European goodies. :p

    I’d love to see a fotd of you with this palette, Tine! 😉

    Oho! That’s pretty 🙂 Its one of the original Iridescent palettes when they were first launched. I agree the shades tend to be sheer but sometimes sheer can be good eh? 😉 Enjoy your new palette.

    I couldn’t resist Eyeko free shipping and succumb to it too. Best part they do give free sample with your purchase eventhough it’s one only. haha
