THE VERDICT:
As I grew older, I've come to realize the importance of having go- to products; seems like a useless principle given that the world I'm in, Beauty blogging, is all about trying and testing, but as you age too, you just begin to not give a damn. When it comes to eyeshadow, the more natural- looking and neutral, the better. My go- to, dependable eyeshadow palette as of late is Guerlain 5 Palette Couleurs in Tonka Imperiale; a 5- piece eyeshadow set that dresses my eyes easily and effortlessly, plus it goes well with almost anything!
GUERLAIN 5 PALETTE COULEURS IN TONKA IMPERIALE IN DETAIL
A compact palette with 5 harmoniously chosen colors for flawless eye makeup; contains 2 nude shades, 1 middle shade, and two smokey shades for multiple looks.
The palette is like a mini minaudiere with a sleek body, glossy black finish, and adorned with the name GUERLAIN at the lower center. Love how simply elegant this palette is.
Tonka Imperiale is part of the holiday collection; it's a set of essential neutrals with lace graphic on the powders.
From left to right, we have the following shades:
1- Cream with a pink pearl undertone (satin)
2- Champagne (semi- metallic)
3- Hazelnut brown (matte)
4- Bronze (metallic)
5- Chocolate brown (matte)
The powders have a smooth, buttery texture, medium to heavy pigmentation, and they glide on ever so smoothly on the lids; they're all quite easy to blend. No fall out with this product.

I don't know about you, but methinks that compared to drugstore eyeshadows, pricier eyeshadows tend to be silkier and have a more natural- looking payoff; Guerlain is no exception.
I digress. These shadows need a primer to stay true and last long.
This is currently my travel and everyday eyeshadow palette because it's handy; I have it in my bag everyday. The colors flatter my skin tone so well and it's such a no- brainer product; I can be half awake and still achieve a wonderful eye makeup with it.

Nyay expensive but pigmented! Earth tones are the best.
ReplyDeleteI love the colors as it is all neutral. It can be worn with different clothes or even skin type I guess. Hahahaha.
ReplyDeleteAll shades are versatile for sure I'll use it up in no time.
ReplyDeleteI really love neutral colors! You can go from day makeup to night makeup real quick with just one palette and Guerlain made it all in one! What I love about the palette is that it blends with any outfit in every occassion you can think of! I think you're right about pricey eyeshadows tend to deliver more than drugstore eyeshadows do. :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful earth-tone colors and pigmented but pricey.
ReplyDeleteAlmost all of my eyeshadow palettes are in neutral tones 😂 That palette has good color payoff, but it's too pricey for me.
ReplyDeleteI'm not into eyeshadow type of person but I like the earth color shades that they have. Good to hear that it is pigmented (well I guess it should be because it's pricey. Hehehe!)
ReplyDeletePricey but worthy. Love the colors and packaging.
ReplyDeleteI agree. much better to stick with high end ES mas pigmented and no fall out :)
ReplyDeleteSuper pretty ng design and colors! But super expensive din for a 5-color palette :/ I would love to have one in the future. :) Pero if between this and UD palette, I'll choose the UD palette na lang.
ReplyDeleteLet me know what you think of this post! :)
