Dior Rouge Saga Eyeshadow Palette Review & Swatches

Dior Rouge Saga (683) 5 Couleurs Couture Eyeshadow Palette

Rouge Saga (683)

Dior Rouge Saga (683) 5 Couleurs Couture Eyeshadow Palette ($65.00 for 0.24 oz.) is a very copper-leaning color story released as a limited edition palette for the autumnal season. The quality was decent but not as good as Dior has been in the past, as a few shades seemed to have a firmer/stiffer press to them.

Ingredients

Dior Rouge Saga #1 High Colour Eyeshadow

Rouge Saga #1

Rouge Saga #1 is a light copper with moderate, warm orange-leaning undertones and a lightly sparkling, frosted sheen.

  • Mostly opaque pigmentation
  • Slightly firmer consistency, not dense or thick, but didn’t pick up as readily with a brush
  • Applied evenly and blended out without issues
  • Long-wearing (8 hours before fading visibly)

These are the dupes the editor has pulled but not yet rated and officially entered.

Formula Overview

-

The formula is supposed to have a "creamy and comfortable texture" that is long-wearing and has "intense color" (or "high-pigment"). There are five finishes that can be found within various palettes: matte, satin, shimmer, metallic, highlighter, and glitter, though there aren't specific descriptions by finish, unfortunately.

There were a few shades that seemed more sparkly and were sheerer, more like layering shades, while the other finishes tended to be pigmented. In general, the texture was moderately dense with the matte shades being slightly thinner and a smidgen powdery in the pan compared to the satin, shimmer, and metallic shades.

Aside from those more sparkly shades, the formula was blendable, pigmented, easy to work with, and lasted an average of eight hours on me (without a primer).

Fenty Pink Limo'Scene Icon Velvet Liquid Lipstick Review & Swatches

Fenty Beauty Pink Limo'scene Icon Velvet Liquid Lipstick

Pink Limo'scene

Fenty Beauty Pink Limo’scene Icon Velvet Liquid Lipstick ($29.00 for 0.19 oz.) is a vivid, neon fuchsia pink with strong, cool blue undertones and a mostly matte finish.

  • Semi-opaque pigmentation
  • Smooth, velvety texture but looked “bubbly” applied
  • Could have applied more evenly and settled less into lip lines
  • Long-wearing (5 hours), non-drying

Formula Overview

$29.00/0.19 oz. - $152.63 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to have "high-impact color" with a "smooth, lightweight texture" that is "comfortable and non-drying" and has a "velvet-matte finish." They are very pigmented, smooth and velvety textured liquid lipsticks that applied evenly and spread well across my lips, but had a bit of a clinginess to them that wasn't drying but felt noticeable.

I've noticed that some silicone-heavy formulations can look bumpy or unmixed in close-ups, though they don't actually feel that way in person when pressing my lips together. The consistency was whipped, as described, but it was thicker and not as lightweight as I would have expected for this type of formula.

I found the formula fairly forgiving of lip texture but was more prone to settling into my lip lines, especially over time. It was better to a light blot after the initial application, which seemed to minimize the settling over time. "Dry down" is a bit of a stretch as they aren't transfer-free until enough has worn down over time. Most shades lasted for five to seven hours and felt non-drying.
