Givenchy Blanc Satin (1) Ombre Couture Cream Eyeshadow
Givenchy Ombre Couture Cream Eyeshadow ($23.00 for 0.14 oz.) is a more recently released cream eyeshadow that’s supposed to be “creamy, waterproof, [and] long-lasting.” It’s a cream-to-powder formula, so it feels like a cream initially but dries down to a powder finish. Givenchy actually states that this lasts for 16 hours, which is quite a tall order. I reviewed three shades here, and I have a few more to share with you now.
Givenchy Blanc Satin (1) Ombre Couture Cream Eyeshadow ($23.00 for 0.14 oz.) is described as a “top coat.” It’s very much as described: a sheer, sparkling top coat that can be layered over whatever your heart desires. The consistency is thin, lightly creamy, and spreads easily, so you can apply an even layer of sparkle over another cream or powder eyeshadow. The sparkle is finer, though larger than shimmer. Worn alone, the sparkles don’t gather in my creases, but I do have noticeable fall out within eight hours. Dior Atlantique #1 (LE) is similar. Divergent Transform (LE) is warmer. Marc Jacobs Beauty Stagelight (302) (LE, $32.00) is similar. Dior Golden Snow #3 (LE) is more pigmented. MAC Bleuluxe #1 (P) is more pigmented. Chanel Fantasme (P, $36.00) is more pigmented. Bobbi Brown Tinsel (LE) is similar. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
Givenchy Bleu Soie (4) Ombre Couture Cream Eyeshadow ($23.00 for 0.14 oz.) is described as a “marine blue.” It’s a dark, navy blue that leans slightly purple with a satiny finish. This wasn’t too shimmery, and it had fairly good color payoff, though it needed two layers for fully opaque color. It wore well for ten and a half hours before creasing on me. NARS UbangiU (P, $25.00) is less purple. MAC Bleuluxe #4 (P) is powder. Bobbi Brown Blue Onyx (LE) is darker. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
Givenchy Gris Organza (7) Ombre Couture Cream Eyeshadow ($23.00 for 0.14 oz.) is described as a “grey.” It’s a medium-dark, cool-toned gray with silver sparkle. It had really good pigmentation, which was opaque in a single stroke, but it was creamy enough that it could be sheered out easily, if desired. This shade lasted for ten hours before it showed signs of creasing. theBalm #26 (P, $6.50) is darker, powder. Tom Ford Beauty Ice Queen #4 (P) is a powder. NARS Transvaal (P, $25.00) is less cool-toned. MAC Typographic (P, $15.00) is darker, warmer, powder. MAC Nehru (P, $15.00) is a powder. Chanel Gris Exquis (LE, $28.50) is a powder. Le Metier de Beaute Genre (LE, $30.00) is more shimmery, darker, powder. See comparison swatches / view dupes.

I loved Organza7. Although I love cream shadows but always used to think they r for wearing fr a few hrs as they crease on long hrs…lets c how this one claims to be 🙂
These wear a bit longer than the average cream eyeshadow on me, but they aren’t quite as long-wearing as they state!
They look too sheer when blended out in the pics.. Much less pigmented hmmm
Blended out swatches are deliberately sheer so that you can see both applications 🙂
I had high hopes for Gris Organza but I have to say I’m rather disappointed. Bleu Soie looks nice though, what a lovely blue.
What were you hoping to see out of Gris Organza?
Pretty shades. I don’t use cream shadow very often, so I wouldn’t be getting these.
Makes sense!
Bleu Soie is gorgeous! The shimmer is so pretty!
It does have a nice shimmer!
Finally, someone writes an honest review. I ordered Rose Dentelle the week they were released and, upon arrival, I was so disappointed! It barely lasted 6 hours on me and I felt the packaging was way too cheap for the $$ and brand. Givenchy is my go-to designer brand, so this was a heartbreaker for me.
The packaging is surprisingly lightweight/plastic-y for Givenchy, though I guess that’s why the price was only $23, which I thought seemed extremely affordable relative to Givenchy’s other products!
I think these are really dupable colours and many would have similar colours in their collections. A little disappointing. I would not purchase these.
They are kind of dupable!
For some reason, none of these are calling my name. Maybe they feel a little too fall like for my mindset right now.
I think they have a muted/murky quality to them, which definitely seems more fall-ish!
These are lovely cream eye shadows .. looks pretty as liner but sheers out a little too much ..
They only sheer out a lot if you try to do so 🙂 I try to show both applications for cream eyeshadow!
You know, despite my decided leaning towards all things blue…I think my favourite one here is Gris Organza! It;s such a great, trye ‘elephant’ grey shade in the ‘liner’ form you have it here. Not shimmery silver grey, not charcoal, not brown grey. Just solid cool elephant grey! Neat! 😀
It is crazy how difficult it is to find that type of gray!
I really like the blue one, even though the performance is not the best I can’t help but feel drawn to it.
Maybe it’s the shimmer 😉
Bleu Soie has possibilities for me, the cream shadow lover. I don’t own a shade like this, and the dupes that you show are not quite as blue. Hmmm
Let me know if you end up trying it, Allison!
