Lancome has launched a limited-edition, pink, heart-shaped Monsieur Big eyeshadow palette which has 12 metallic & matte eyeshadows in rosy, nude, and chocolate hues mean endless eye shadow looks from nude to intense. With a very beautiful and eye-catching packaging in hot pink colour and the shades are divided into 3 zones with 4 shades each, not that you can not use one shade from one zone and other from a different zone, just that it is great for a beginner to refer and definitely a keeper for a makeup professional. The palette is curated by makeup artist Lisa Eldridge.

With no limit to creativity, many eye looks can be created from this eyeshadow palette. The shades of this new eyeshadow palette are highly pigmented, long-wear, and crease-resistant. The formula is very creamy and smooth, applies and blends easily.

The palette contains 12 eyeshadows:

Big Crush-Base – nude matte

Big Crush-Liner – light gold metallic

Big Crush-Highlight – light pink metallic

Big Crush-Corner – coral matte

Big Date-Base – rose gold matte

Big Date-Liner – bronze metallic

Big Date-Highlight – white metallic

Big Date-Corner – pop pink matte

Big Night-Base – plum brown metallic

Big Night-Liner – wine red matte

Big Night-Highlight – fuchsia red metallic

Big Night-Corner – brick brown metallic

For each of the three eyeshadow range, they can be applied:
• Apply the base all over the eyelid
• Apply the corner eyeshadow shade in your outer-corner to intensify the look
• Bring highlight to your look with the highlighter eyeshadow shade on the inner corner and the center of your lid.
• Apply the liner eyeshadow shade on your eye shape contour to structure your eye
• Finally, apply a few coats of our best volumizing mascara, Monsieur Big Mascara, on your lashes

The formula is very pigmented, especially the metallic eyeshadows are very buttery as compared to matte’s which is normal for a matte eyeshadow. The formula blends easily and is buildable to the needed intensity and looks. They did not crease on my eyelids for a few hours without any eye primer. I find the three compartments very helpful when using and creating an eye look and you might agree with me. And coming to the packaging, it is a delight to eyes and can definitely be a great gift idea for anyone loving pink and red hues and want to be creative.

Lancome Monsieur Big Eyeshadow Palette is available at Sephora, Nordstrom Canada, Shoppers Drug Mart, and Lancome.ca
