Dior Diorshow Eyeshadow ($29.50 for 0.07 oz.) is a new (well, reformulated) powder eyeshadow formula that’s supposed to be “super-saturated” that is “long-lasting.” Since Dior has been pretty hit or miss with their powder eyeshadows lately, I only bought three to try. They are decent to good; not particularly impressive but not misses either. Two of the three shades were on the powdery side, as they were so soft and loosely pressed in the pan, while one was much denser and more cream-like (which, in turn, applied better to bare skin). Two had decent pigmentation but not fully opaque and not buildable either.

Dior Minimalism (554) Diorshow Eyeshadow ($29.50 for 0.07 oz.) is a muted, medium taupe with subtle, warm undertones and a satiny sheen. It was blendable but somewhat prone to sheering out due to the softer, more powdery texture. It had semi-opaque color payoff, and the eyeshadow wore for six and a half hours before fading noticeably. Urban Decay Grip (LE, $19.00) is warmer (90% similar). Buxom Frosted Pewter (LE, $12.00) is more shimmery, darker (90% similar). LORAC Navy #5 (LE, $19.00) is lighter, warmer (85% similar). MAC Noblesse Oblige (LE, $19.50) is more shimmery (85% similar). MAC City Beat (LE, $17.00) is lighter, warmer (80% similar). Stila Stone (LE, $18.00) is more shimmery, warmer (80% similar). Chanel Mystere #3 (LE, ) is darker, warmer (80% similar). See comparison swatches / view dupes side-by-side.

Dior Cosmopolite (658) Diorshow Eyeshadow ($29.50 for 0.07 oz.) is a medium, golden brown with warm undertones and a frosted sheen. It was richly pigmented with a dense, more cream-like consistency that felt almost wet to the touch. It applied and adhered well to bare skin, and while it was fully opaque on, it still blended out easily. This shade lasted for seven and a half hours on me before creasing slightly. Tarte Malibu (LE, ) is more shimmery, lighter (95% similar). MAC Tea Leaves (LE, $22.00) is less shimmery (95% similar). MAC Monaco-co (Enchanted Forest) (LE, $20.00) is darker (95% similar). NARS Himalia (P, $29.00) is more shimmery, lighter (95% similar). Tarte Spiked Cider (LE, ) is less shimmery (95% similar). Urban Decay Sidecar (DC, $19.00) is less shimmery, cooler (90% similar). Givenchy Palette Ors Audacieux #2 (LE, ) is cooler (90% similar). NARS Lucid Dream (LE, $28.00) is less shimmery, cooler (90% similar).

Dior Front Row (756) Diorshow Eyeshadow ($29.50 for 0.07 oz.) is a muted, medium-dark purpled taupe with subtle, warm undertones and a pearly sheen. As you can tell from the swatch, it’s quite powdery and loose, so it is prone to fall out and does sheer out a little bit. The color applied better than anticipated, though, and had good color payoff despite the softer texture. The color started to fade after six and a half hours of wear. MAC Tendersmoke (LE, $17.00) is darker (95% similar). Ardency Inn Disco (DC, $21.00) is more shimmery (90% similar). Buxom Patent Leather (P, $12.00) is more shimmery, lighter, cooler (90% similar). Viseart Vendome (PiP, ) is warmer (90% similar). Marc Jacobs Beauty The Free Spirit No. 6 (LE, ) is more shimmery, lighter (85% similar). Cle de Peau Baby Universe #3 (PiP, ) is less shimmery (80% similar). Buxom Top Shelf (P, $12.00) is less shimmery, lighter (80% similar). Pat McGrath Lilac Dusk (PiP, $25.00) is lighter, cooler (80% similar). Tarte Crystal (PiP, ) is more shimmery, lighter (80% similar). LORAC Soft Plum (LE, $19.00) is lighter (80% similar).
