Noir Petrole (812)

Chanel Noir Petrole (812) Ombre Premiere Longwear Cream Eyeshadow ($36.00 for 0.14 oz.) is a deep, smoky brown with subtle, warm undertones and barely-there red pearl. It had semi-opaque pigmentation, which was buildable to opaque coverage. The consistency was smooth, thin but not too thin, and dried down quickly. I found it hard to blend the color out evenly and felt like it was best used as a base rather than a standalone eyeshadow as it was hard to get it to appear even at less than opaque coverage. It was still going strong after twelve hours of wear.

Chanel describes the formula as a “smooth-textured cream shadow [that] glides on effortlessly” and is “long-wearing.” There are eight shades (view swatches) released with one (Obscur) being limited edition. Overall, the consistency has moderate slip–emollient but not greasy or overly wet in feel–and feels more like a traditional cream eyeshadow than Chanel’s Illusion d’Ombres. They go on as a thin layer but have fairly good pigmentation. The formula dried down quite quickly leaving little time for blending or diffusing edges, even when working one eye at a time, which was where I struggled. I think some of them tended to work better as lid colors and using something else for a more diffused/blended out crease color. They did, however, wear impeccably for as long as fourteen hours on me–no creasing, fading, or flaking.

Pourpre Profond (810)

Chanel Pourpre Profond (810) Ombre Premiere Longwear Cream Eyeshadow ($36.00 for 0.14 oz.) is a dark burgundy with warm, red undertones and a satin shimmer. It had mostly opaque coverage in a single layer, and just getting a little more product on the brush took it to full coverage. The texture was lightweight, thin, moderately emollient, and applied evenly to bare lids but was hard to diffuse perfectly as it dried down shortly after applying it. On me, I did not see any signs of fading, creasing, or flaking after fourteen hours of wear.

Scintillance (804)

Chanel Scintillance (804) Ombre Premiere Longwear Cream Eyeshadow ($36.00 for 0.14 oz.) is a soft, peachy beige with warm undertones and a metallic sheen. It had semi-opaque pigmentation in one layer, but it was buildable to full coverage with a second layer patted on top. The formula dried down quickly, so it did not have time to gather in the creases as it dried down and was more amenable to a second layer. The consistency was smooth, fairly blendable, and sat well on the lid. This shade wore well for fourteen hours with no signs of fading.
