Dior Pareo (644) Mono Eyeshadow Review, Photos, Swatches
Dior Pareo (644) Mono Eyeshadow
Dior Pareo (644) Mono Eyeshadow ($29.00 for 0.07 oz.) is tangerine orange with a subtle golden shimmer. It’s just bright enough to be a bolder shade, but it’s muted enough that it isn’t a neon orange. Dior Aurora #5 is darker, more shimmery. MAC Fresh Daily is a touch more copper. Milani Orange Primary Runway Eyes is more shimmery. NARS Ramatuelle is darker and more muted.
The eyeshadow had good color payoff, and while the texture was soft and finely-milled, it was noticeably powdery both in the pan and applied. It’s really vital that you remember to lightly tap your brush against your forearm or over the pan to minimize fall out during application. The color is also better patted on, rather than swept, and though pigmented, has a tendency to blend out very, very quickly. I like applying it, then working the rest of the colors into the look, and then going back to add more color and blend it with the rest of the shades. When I wore it, Pareo lasted seven hours but was noticeably faded after eight hours (no primer).

Hey Christine! Would this work as a blush?
I don’t see why it wouldn’t! 🙂
The packaging looks humongous for a single eyeshadow!
Looks like this color might get lost a bit on the lid.
gross swatch! looks crumbly and dry, just awful! plus the ingredients have bismuth listed, pretty bad for a fancy brand
Bismuth is in virtually everything, high and low end. I know some people are allergic, but it’s everywhere.
I prefer the packaging for the recently discontinued Dior singles. Small, cute and compact without huge swathes of pointless, wasted plastic on either side that the Chanel singles have. Sad to see they got bigger.
I’m hoping this is just one of those worse colours in the line and the rest perform better. I love my current Dior singles.
