REVIEW: Chanel illusion d'ombre eye shadows.

Hi everyone.

Today I am going to review these gorgeous Chanel cream eye shadows. I have 3 colours; 82 Èmerveillé ( Wonder struck ), 83 Illusoire ( Illusion), 89 Vision. 

Firstly I would like to say how amazing these eye shadows are. They come in a small box with a little lip style brush provided, I prefer to use my fingers to apply to my eye lid but the brush is still of good quality and works well. They all have a beautiful creamy texture with excellent colour pay off even without a primer.They all contain a lot of glitter and shimmer so if you prefer a matte eye shadow I probably would give these a miss! Èmerveillé & Illsuoire are very opaque for shimmery cream eye shadows, Vision is not as quite but I will expand on that later. Èmerveillé  is a little less pigmented than the other two but I feel this is because I bought this one first and it has dried up a bit, so needs a few layers to make it very pigmented. They do crease slightly over a few hours but if you set them with the same colour eye shadow they hardly crease at all.

From top; Illusoire, Èmerveillé  & Vision. ( Without primer).

 82 Èmerveillé: This one is my favourite of them all! I wear this most days, but you could also use it on a night out! It is a light cool toned champagne colour with flecks of gold shimmer. The shimmer is very fine and not chunky. Looks much better in real life! I'd check this out if you love shimmery but natural eye shadow. I like to set this one with Mac's All that glitters. 

82 Illusoire: This one is an unusual colour, I'd describe it as a plumy, grey colour. It has flecks of plum and silver shimmer. Again the shimmer is very fine and very beautiful. This one looks amazing on a smokey eye, or as a base. I usually use it as a base then use a black on the crease or set it with Urban Decay's zero. 

89 Vision: This one is slightly different from the other two, it is more of a glitter than a shimmer so it is not as opaque as they are. It is a true yellow gold and would look gorgeous on any eye colour. I'd recommend applying this one with a brush as it is very glittery and will get everywhere! ( It's in my brows in the picture! ) I use it all over the lid with Urban Decay's half baked over the top!

If you are looking for a beautiful, high quality & high end cream eye shadow I would recommend these! The only bad point is that you need to close the lid tight or they may dry out, like my Èmerveillé, they can still be used when dryer just need a bit more work. Also they are a bit on the pricey side at £24 each. I purchase mine from Debenhams but they can be bought from some Boots stores, Chanel stores & some department stores. If you want to make your eyes pop, especially for the festive season or I think they'd make a lovely gift. 

I purchased these with my own money and these are my own opinions.
