Beige Couture (523)
Dior Beige Couture (523) 5 Couleurs Couture Eyeshadow Palette ($65.00 for 0.24 oz.) is a new, limited edition offering for the fall season. It’s a very light-leaning palette that has a tendency to run together as the first three shades are just so similar (they’ll have the most noticeable contrast on mid-tone skin, I think, as they won’t contrast against very light skin). I’d normally side-eye something this light-leaning, but Dior released this and a much deeper, reddish-neutral palette simultaneously, so the collection addresses the needs of more skin tones as a result.
I’ve normally had better luck with the brand’s embossed quads, but the texture of the eyeshadows seemed overly firm, which produced some powderiness/dryness and made it harder to pick up colors with a dry brush. The quality wasn’t The Worst, but it wasn’t spectacular, and for $65, I do think we should be looking for spectacular!

Formula Overview
-
The formula is supposed to have a "creamy and comfortable texture" that is long-wearing and has "intense color" (or "high-pigment"). There are five finishes that can be found within various palettes: matte, satin, shimmer, metallic, highlighter, and glitter, though there aren't specific descriptions by finish, unfortunately.
There were a few shades that seemed more sparkly and were sheerer, more like layering shades, while the other finishes tended to be pigmented. In general, the texture was moderately dense with the matte shades being slightly thinner and a smidgen powdery in the pan compared to the satin, shimmer, and metallic shades.
Aside from those more sparkly shades, the formula was blendable, pigmented, easy to work with, and lasted an average of eight hours on me (without a primer).
