Chanel Douceur et Serenite (378) Eyeshadow Quad Review & Swatches
Douceur et Serenite (378)
Chanel Douceur et Serenite (378) Les 4 Ombres Multi-Effect Quadra Eyeshadow ($62.00 for 0.07 oz.) is a smokier, purple-plum color story that includes two matte shades and two satin-to-pearl shades. There was some variety in depth and finish, so I could see lighter and darker looks, though I expect looks to lean a little smoky overall. All four shades had higher coverage, were blendable, and picked up readily with a dry brush, and they lasted around eight hours on me.

Douceur et Serenite (378)
PPermanent. $70.00.
Douceur et Serenite #1
Douceur et Serenite #1 is a very light, lavender-taupe with cool undertones and a matte finish. The consistency was incredibly smooth and finely-milled, but it was lightly powdery. It had opaque color coverage that wasn’t prone to sheering out, which was a happy surprise. It stayed on nicely for eight hours before fading a bit.

No dupes for shades 2 to 4? I like this but not enough to agonize over how to get my mitts on it so I’m hoping I can dupe the remaining 3 shades (I think I have 4 dupes for #1).
Fixed!
Many thanks! Your dupes either save me a lot of money or relax me into seeing I’m well supplied with similar products. Both are real sanity-savers!
This may well become my 2nd Chanel quad! It has shades that are firmly in my happy place and very good ones to really make the green in my bluish/greenish eyes!
I thought the purple shades were done really well, but wished that the soft black shade would be a pearly grey instead. Overall, this is a solid quad from Chanel.
I’m thinking this quad + the Lumieres et Vibration quad is going to be very close to the Nordstrom Anniversary MAC palette in medium. In regard to the color story, not the quality. We all know the questionable nature of MAC palettes these days!
This is a breathing quad. I love the purples, and that the black was kept soft.
Yes!!!! This is my cup of tea. Wish I wasn’t self restricting AKA no buying
