have been a G bronzer/meteorites user FOREVER but just starting looking at the G eyeshadows.........
1. of the purple eye quads - les violets or attrape couer which one do y'all prefer? i just picked up chanel's fatal cream shadow and would love some more purple shadows to go with it
2. is G's turnadot too close to chanel's harmonie du soir to have both?? i keep my eye make up very simple for the most part so i would never use both if they are even remotely close....
3. how do G shadows compare to other brands? everyone seems to go bananas over tom ford, are his quads/trios really that much better overall?
the first G quad i picked up was turnadot, i usually stick with the chanel special limited editions as in pearl river quint, delicatasse, topkapi not the regular limited editions.....i also use the C cream shadows a lot.......
thank you for any help!!
These are just my opinions, but for what it's worth...
1. I find that Attrape-Coeur is a little more practical. There's a greater range of tones, which makes it easy to use all the shades together, without reaching for something else. Les Violets is lovely, but most of the colours fall into the mid-tone range, so there's not as much flexibility to them. I think you'd always have to include at least one colour from outside the palette with Les Violets.
2. I find that they're different enough. They look quite different in use- more so than they do swatched. I bought both and have never regretted the decision.
3. In general, I find them extremely impressive. They're extremely long-wearing and resist creasing . The colours don't tend to get muddy on the eye, which I appreciate. I do find that I have to go easy on the frost finishes, because they can apply fairly heavily, but they blend out nicely as well. Definitely among my very favourites and the value for their 4-shadow palettes is not bad at all for a prestige brand.
