“I like that Chanel quad,” you say, “but do I already own something like it?” Great question.
Here is the Chanel Smoky Eye quad ($56), side by side with Too Faced’s Ooh & Aah ($17), Stila’s Backstage Beauty Eye Shadow Palette – The Red Carpet Look ($40), and a wide assortment of MAC shadows ($14.50 each).
According to Specktra, MAC will also be releasing a collection called “Chill” in December 2008, with four lovely, icy grey shadows… but who can wait that long?
For those interested in MAC shadow finishes:
- Black Tied – Velvet
- Carbon – Matte
- Chill – Satin
- Crystal Avalanche – Veluxe Pearl
- Electra – Frost
- Forgery – Lustre
- Gesso – Matte
- Idol Eyes – Lustre
- Knight Divine – Veluxe Pearl
- Nehru – Matte
- Print – Satin
- Scene – Satin
- Silver Ring – Veluxe Pearl
- Typographic – Matte²
- Vellum – Frost

>Purdy. But not terribly unique, huh? Now where’s that beige Chanel quad?? BTW, if you ever need swatches of any of the LE MAC shadows I may be able to help.
>The beige Chanel quad must be captured this weekend!
And I would love to take you up on that offer.
>Your blog is the best!
Thank you for such an extensive (but greatly needed) info
