Pure Gold (003)
Dior Pure Gold (003) Backstage Glow Face PaletteDior Pure Gold (003) Backstage Glow Face Palette ($45.00 for 0.35 oz.) is a new, limited edition all-gold highlighting palette that includes three warmer, yellower golds and one, almost “cooler” gold–call it golden beige or golden pewter (the latter not being a typical highlighter shade). All four shades had more semi-opaque to opaque, buildable pigmentation with denser, gel-powder textures that worked well with denser brushes, though they blended out easily and sat well on bare skin as there was no powderiness.
Pure Gold (003)
LELimited Edition. $45.00.
Yellow Gold
Yellow Gold is a light, yellow-leaning gold with faint, micro-sparkle over a pearlescent sheen. It had semi-opaque pigmentation that was buildable to full coverage with a second layer.
The texture was smooth to the touch, dense but not stiff, and had no powderiness, so it was easy to control how much product was picked up on a brush. It wore well for eight and a half hours before fading a bit.

Formula Overview
-
The formula is described as buildable from "a natural healthy glow to an intense luminosity." The brand goes on to list a slew of finishes--metallic, intense, shimmery, and glittery--though on the actual product, a few shades listed as "intense" online were listed as "sheer" on the label.
A lot of the "buildable" characteristic is tied to the glow/finish, which is common with the gel-powder hybrid formula that the brand is using, but the brand isn't as clear with respect to actual pigmentation. The brand's online promotional images show fully opaque "swatches." Worse, the actual pigmentation varied from shade to shade quite a bit, though they tended to be more medium to opaque, often buildable if they weren't fully opaque.
The texture was more of a smooth, slightly firmer formula that wasn't stiff to work with, but they did work better with a more moderately-dense brush or something with a larger surface area (to pick up product more evenly) when patted into the pan.

Yellow Gold
LELimited Edition.
Gold Gold
Gold Gold is a brighter, medium yellow-gold with moderate, warm undertones and a metallic sheen with very faint sparkle. The texture was soft, smooth, and blendable with a moderate density that made it a touch firmer, though not stiff, and was best used with a moderately-dense brush to pick up product.
It had opaque color coverage, which could easily be used with a lighter hand for more buildable coverage if desired. It stayed on nicely for eight and a half hours before fading visibly.
Note, I wrote at length about the “sheer” label on the back of the palette previously on the Copper Gold palette, but the outcome was that’s not how it’s described at the point of purchase, the two conflict, and when that occurs, I weight what’s at point of purchase (since you aren’t privy to the label before you’ve purchased!) and what’s harder to achieve (usually pigmentation).

Warm Gold
Warm Gold is a richer, medium-dark gold with strong, warm undertones and a sparkling sheen with faint pink and mostly gold micro-sparkle over a metallic finish. It had semi-opaque, buildable pigmentation that adhered well to bare skin, while the texture was smooth, dense but not stiff, so it applied and blended out without difficulty.
I found that the finish emphasized my skin texture slightly when worn at higher coverage. It lasted well for eight and a half hours before fading noticeably.

Platinum
Platinum is a light-medium, pewter gold with warm undertones and a sparkling, shiny finish. It was particularly shiny–not just metallic as it was smoother but as reflective–with faint sparkle.
It had semi-opaque, buildable color coverage that applied evenly and blended out with ease, but it didn’t emphasize my skin’s natural texture. The texture was soft, smooth, and dense without being stiff to work with. It wore well for eight and a half hours before fading a bit.
