Charlotte Tilbury Diva Lights Eyeshadow Quad Review & Swatches

Diva Lights

Charlotte Tilbury Diva Lights Eyeshadow QuadCharlotte Tilbury Diva Lights Eyeshadow Quad ($53.00 for 0.18 oz.) is a new, limited edition eyeshadow quad that features a wet/dry formula that felt more like a gel-powder type to me. It felt more baked and tended to look a little more metallic and slightly darker when applied damp over dry. I didn’t find that dampened application was vital to getting opacity, though, so it was easy to use with either application method as the formula was blendable and had a tendency to “melt” on skin for a particularly seamless effect.

Diva Lights (Prime)

Diva Lights (Prime) is a medium, peachy gold with warm undertones and a pearly sheen. It had opaque color payoff applied dry as well as with a dampened brush, while the eyeshadow had a moderately firm, denser feel, but it wasn’t overly thick and still picked up well with a dry brush and blended out without difficulty. It stayed on well for eight hours before fading visibly.

Diva Lights (Enhance)

Diva Lights (Enhance) is a rich, medium-dark copper with moderate, warm undertones and a metallic finish. It was richly pigmented applied dry as well as damp, though the latter application method yielded slightly darker, richer color with a stronger sheen. The consistency was soft and smooth to the touch with a moderate density–no powderiness–and did require a slightly heavier hand to pick up product evenly but was very blendable on my skin. It lasted nicely for eight hours before fading a bit.

Diva Lights (Define)

Diva Lights (Define) is a soft, charcoal black with neutral-to-cool undertones and a satin finish. It had semi-opaque, buildable pigmentation applied dry and more opaque coverage when applied with a dampened brush.
