The Givenchy Le Prisme Eye Quad in Candide Garden: Thanksgiving in March
Today an eye quad made me nervous. as well as hungry. For turkey?
The Givenchy Le Prisme Eye Quad in Candide Garden($56), the lone quad in the new Givenchy Naivement Couture Collection for Spring/Summer, made me a bit anxious since of exactly how sheer the colors looked swatched on the back of my hand. I tried not to compose as well much into it before getting them on my lids, however before I might talk myself down, a word popped into my head that concerned me even more: Thanksgiving! That’s what the orange, yellow as well as brown shades reminded me of, as well as I contemplated putting the quad down best there…

Don’t get me wrong — I like the holiday. In truth I’ve always been a fan. I’m down with the colors of the gather as well as falling leaves as well as those adorable animation turkeys, too, however was I prepared to wear those shades on my lids? I mars?
Apparently, I was. as well as I’m so glad. This wee bit quad with its four powder shadows is really quite darn great (if not great, except for the price).
Yes, it takes three or four layers for the colors to truly come into their own, however when I got them on my eyes, the shimmery brown, orange, gold as well as matte peach shades didn’t make me feel like Thanksgiving at all. I was as well taken with them to believe of turkey anymore.

I was amazed that in spite of my applying several layers, the shadows didn’t display after effects below my eyes, as well as they likewise mixed like a dream along the method (I utilized my MAC 217).
In these pics I’m using the darker orange shade on my outer lids, the gold on my inner lids, the peach along my brow bone as well as the brown shade along my lash as well as waterlines. All told, the eye part of the look only took about 10-15 minutes to do.

Candide garden is one spendy product, as well as while I wouldn’t have minded much more pigment for the price, I still believe it’s a great example of a high-end product done right. The shadows blend easily, stay put all the time long, as well as don’t look heavy on my lids. If you already miss Thanksgiving as well as don’t mind a splurge, this might be your next quad.
