Dior Eternal Gold (576) Eyeshadow Palette
Dior Eternal Gold (576) Eyeshadow Palette ($63.00 for 0.25 oz.) is a limited edition palette for the holidays. It was less impressive than Blazing Gold, but it wasn’t the worst Dior palette I’ve tried either, so I guess there’s that. I like the color concept (which is the norm for Dior!), but I wish these were less dusty/dry overall.
Eternal Gold #1 is a light-medium, meadowy green with warm, golden frost. It had semi-sheer color payoff with a dusty, thinner texture. It blended out okay on the skin, but I couldn’t build up the color at all. The color lasted for six hours before fading.
Eternal Gold #2 is a light, golden beige with a frosted sheen. It had semi-opaque pigmentation with a lightly dusty, but blendable, consistency that applied well to the skin. It wore for seven hours on me.
Eternal Gold #3 is a bright, white gold with a cooler white base paired with really yellow gold that gives it a more metallic sheen. It had good pigmentation with a soft, smooth, lightly dense texture that was blendable and lasted for seven and a half hours.
Eternal Gold #4 is a soft, medium-dark plum with warm undertones and a soft, frosted finish. It had decent color payoff with a lightly dusty texture that made it apepar a little drier on the lid, but I had no trouble blending and diffusing the edges. On me, it started to fade after seven and a half hours of wear.
Eternal Gold #5 is a deep black with subtle, warm brown undertones and lots of silver sparkle. The texture was very dense, more like a cream eyeliner to me, than a powder eyeshadow. I did have some trouble getting it to blend out without becoming patchy, as it was so thick. It did last for eight hours, though!

“It was less impressive than Blazing Gold, but it wasn’t the worst Dior palette I’ve tried either, so I guess there’s that.” LOLing forever. ?
Also some of those swatches… Yikes! ?
🙂
These colors are so gorgeous together! Too bad the quality isn’t good… I mean for $63 I need at least a B+!
Christine, do you think we can get by with this palette with a good primer? I always use NARS’ eyeshadow base anyway…
You could certainly get by better with a primer, though I don’t think I’d shell out this much for the palette (even with primer) unless the colors speak loudly to you 🙂
I wish it was better!
I swatched this in store, and it’s definitely much better than many of Dior’s other kits, so I’m hoping they will continue to improve the formula. I loved the gorgeous sparkle, which gave the colors a lot of complexity, but at this price , it needs an A. Or a substantial discount ( sale, gwp, cash back) might tempt me !
Maybe 2016 will be the year of the quint revival!
#3 looks like a duochrome to me….. like a white gold that reflects blue. does anyone else see it or am i going colorblind?
Kind of! It has a very strong yellow shimmer to it – more of a duotone? I guess. It doesn’t shift so much as the undertone is cooler and the shimmer gives it a warmer overtone.
Okay, Than I will pass.
lol!
If the quality had been there, this would have been a winner in my book. I absolutely LOVE all 5 of these shades! But heck if I’m going to fork over $63 for a B- quint palette! That’s just crazy. Why does Dior have to go and tease us with gorgeous shades that have poor quality?!? ?
Sometimes I can’t believe they’re $63 now and worse.
I love the colors in this; pity about the poor performance. Thank goodness for dupes, eh?
Indeed 😀
Not bad for a Dior palette. 😉
Haha!
It’s a really strange mix of colours – with two of them being very similar to each other. I thought this would be poor because I actually swatched it at our local department store and was very unimpressed. What brought the score down was the green colour – that was really bad. Also there are lots of dupes for these colours anyway. An easy pass.
I feel better knowing I wasn’t alone in feeling unimpressed by it!
I really love the colour combination but reading this blog for a long time has made me wary of Dior palettes!!
lol! One should be 🙁 Sometimes they work, sometimes they don’t. They’re a product definitely worth checking out in person if you can!
I keep forgetting to click ‘replies to my comments’ – I will try to do better. I didn’t want anyone to think I would ignore anyone’s comments.
No worries 🙂
#5 is beautiful!
It is!
I really do like the colors, #4 is my favorite. I’m so sad that Dior can’t make an excellent quality palette. I keep hoping…
You and me both, Bonnie, you and me both 🙁
