In My Bag: Chanel Ombre D’Eau Iridescent Fluid Eyeshadow

I’m having one makeup phase in particular; I’ve gone bananas over all things Chanel in my arsenal lately. The following product I have had in my beauty bag for months, but I wasn’t too crazy for it in the beginning. It was an impulse buy when I was really looking for a gloss but a gorgeous Chanel BA coerced me into buying this pinky-gold shade of liquid eyeshadow: Chanel Ombre D’Eau Iridescent Fluid Eyeshadow in Coast. I was trying to find that shade for you all, but alas it was limited edition. First MAC’s Lipglass in Nymphette, and now this? *pouts* This and the former were both pinky-gold shades, which I’m now convinced were specially formulated for my skintone.

For purposes of this review, Bay would be a perfect alterna-shade, although I would like to experiment with some of the other pretty colors from the line aswell such as Fountain and Ocean.

I rediscovered this product when I randomly pulled it out and starting dabbing the fluid here, there, and there on my face with the sponge-tipped applicator, then quickly blended it to see the effect. It was quite lovely! Not only do I use it on my browbone and lid, but also right under my eyes above the apples of my cheeks for an iridescent glow. I also dabbed it on my lips before applying lip gloss to provide a light golden base. Who says there’s only one way to use a beauty product?
