With the huge success of nude makeup these days, I found a cool eye shadow quad in this family from the DOLCE & GABBANA brand. It’s The Eyeshadow Smooth Eye Colour Quad in Desert ($59 @ saksfifthavenue.com). Besides the usual, “are these shades something I would wear?” question, I like that each is a different finish – one is matte, one is metallic and one is satin and one is pearl. And to answer the previous question, yes, I think each of these four shades is totally wearable for all skin types. 

 

And the quality of the shadows? Mucho pigmented and they blend together and into the skin nicely. But then again, I would expect that from a high end brand with this kind of price tag.

from L to R color descriptions: white cream, tan, terra cotta brown, deep red brown

Have you treated yourself to any new makeup lately? How about this one?
