The Givenchy Le Prisme Eye Quad in Candide Garden: Thanksgiving in March - Makeup and Beauty Blog
Today an middle quad fabricated me nervous. And hungry. For turkey?
The Givenchy Le Prisme Heart Quad in Candide Garden($56), the lone quad in the new Givenchy Naivement Couture Drove for Spring/Summer, made me a little nervous because of how sheer the colors looked swatched on the back of my hand. I tried non to write too much into it before getting them on my lids, but earlier I could talk myself down, a word popped into my head that worried me even more: Thanksgiving! That'south what the orange, yellow and chocolate-brown shades reminded me of, and I contemplated putting the quad down right there…
Don't get me wrong — I honey the holiday. In fact I've always been a fan. I'1000 down with the colors of the harvest and falling leaves and those cute cartoon turkeys, too, but was I ready to habiliment those shades on my lids? In March?
Evidently, I was. 🙂 And I'm so glad. This wee niggling quad with its four powder shadows is actually pretty darn adept (if not great, except for the price).
Yes, information technology takes 3 or 4 layers for the colors to really come into their own, but once I got them on my eyes, the shimmery brown, orange, gold and matte peach shades didn't brand me experience like Thanksgiving at all. I was besides taken with them to think of turkey anymore.
I was surprised that despite my applying multiple layers, the shadows didn't exhibit fallout beneath my eyes, and they also blended like a dream along the way (I used my MAC 217).
In these pics I'k wearing the darker orangish shade on my outer lids, the gilded on my inner lids, the peach forth my brow bone and the brownish shade along my lash and waterlines. All told, the eye portion of the expect only took about x-15 minutes to practice.
First four swatches: Le Prisme Eyes in Candide Garden ($56); swatch on far right: Phenomen'Optics Mascara in Blackness ($29.50), also from the Naivement Couture Collection
Additional makeup worn in this look: Dolce & Gabbana Volumized Lashes Mascara and Chanel Le Sourcil de Chanel on eyes; Estee Lauder Bronze Goddess Bounding main Star Bronzing Chroma on cheeks; and Givenchy Rouge Interdit Lipstick in Candide Tangerine on lips
Candide Garden is one spendy production, and while I wouldn't accept minded more paint for the price, I however retrieve it'due south a good example of a luxury production done correct. The shadows blend easily, stay put all day long, and don't look heavy on my lids. If you already miss Thanksgiving and don't listen a splurge, this could exist your side by side quad.
PRICE: $56 (!)

What happened to hump mean solar day?
I tin can't believe we're already closer to Fri than Monday. What'southward up with that? I wish I could say I did something thrilling today, but the most heady parts of my day were the few miles I ran on the treadmill and the mini-cupcakes I ate when I was done.
Hope you had a slap-up mean solar day. Talk to you lot soon. 🙂
