Dior Reflexion Eyeshadow Palette Review & Swatches

Reflexion (889)

Dior Reflexion (889) 5 Couleurs Couture Eyeshadow Palette ($62.00 for 0.24 oz.) is a new, limited edition warm-toned neutral palette with a pop of red. The finishes were more on the satin side for most shades, which was unusual to find and refreshing to see! All five shades performed similarly: they were pigmented, blendable, and lasted around eight hours.

Ingredients

Reflexion #1

Reflexion #1 is a medium gold with strong, warm undertones and a soft, metallic finish.

  • Opaque color payoff
  • Smooth, velvety texture, not too firm nor powdery
  • Applied evenly, blended out well
  • Long-wearing (8 hours)

  • NARS Tropical Express #2 (PiP, $19.00) is more shimmery, darker (90% similar).

Formula Overview

The formula is supposed to have a “creamy and comfortable texture” that is long-wearing and has “intense color” (or “high-pigment”). There are five finishes that can be found within various palettes: matte, satin, shimmer, metallic, highlighter, and glitter, though there aren’t specific descriptions by finish, unfortunately.

There were a few shades that seemed more sparkly and were sheerer, more like layering shades, while the other finishes tended to be pigmented. In general, the texture was moderately dense with the matte shades being slightly thinner and a smidgen powdery in the pan compared to the satin, shimmer, and metallic shades.

Aside from those more sparkly shades, the formula was blendable, pigmented, easy to work with, and lasted an average of eight hours on me (without a primer).
