It's not necessary to have a painting on display in a gallery to create a work of art. There are eyeshadow palettes that allow us to paint, illuminate or sculpt our eyes as if we were descendants of Willem de Kooning
Dior Backstage Eye Palette in shade the 007 Coral Neutrals, € 54, DIOR.

Promises: to create a range of looks, from the most natural to the most intense. Vogue's word: the popular saying goes "You never compromise in a little black dress", the wisdom of many years experimenting with eyeshadow palettes adds "neither with a Dior Backstage." Of course, it's possible to make mistakes - formulas change, ingredients change, packaging and colors evolve with technology - but in this case everything changes and everything stays the same, which is to say, excellent. It's true that almost the entire Dior Backstage line is worthy of applause, but the eyeshadows occupy the top spot when it comes to beauty addicts' favorites. Consisting of a primer, an illuminator, three shimmery eyeshadows, a matte powder, two highly pigmented matte eyeshadows and a metallic eyeshadow, this palette is a true work of art.
Eyeshadow palette from the Exclusive Lumière Graphique Collection, € 75, CHANEL. Promises: a luminous and striking look.

Promises: a luminous and striking look. Vogue's word: Inspired by the opulence and magic of the Roaring Twenties, this exclusive edition is part of the HOLIDAY 2023 collection and is an homage to Gabrielle Chanel's spectacular dresses. Its five shades scream " night ", " party " and "glamour", and they are destined to make sure that no one goes unnoticed when wearing them. From platinum beige to shimmering black, not forgetting the dazzling diamond white, this is the palette to use now that the round of everything-and-everywhere dinner parties has begun. Like other compositions with the Chanel label, Lumière Graphique leaves no credit in the empty hands and guarantees an impactful look worthy of a mademoiselle.
Eyeshadow palette Couture Mini Clutch Holiday 2023 Edition, price upon consultation, YVES SAINT LAURENT.

Promises: to create a sophisticated and bold look thanks to the four shades with satin, shimmer and matte finishes, enriched with oils that provide a smooth application on the skin. Vogue's word: it's the ideal eyeshadow palette for the festive season ahead, or wouldn't that be precisely the purpose of this special edition. Yves Saint Laurent makeup is always a safe bet, but no less bold - this limited edition features silver and gold tones that promise not to go unnoticed. The formula is super-smooth and therefore simple to apply, making it easy to build up the desired intensity of shine. Whether as a Christmas gift or to add some razzle dazzle to these fall days, the Couture Mini Clutch is a sure bet. PS: we can assure that it will survive - without any retouching - a Lisbon dawn.
Eyephoria Handbag Palette in the shade Paradise Lost, Then Found, € 36.99, RABANNE MAKEUP, at SEPHORA.PT.

Promises: to reinvent traditional eye shadows with innovative finishes and sensations, pigmented colors in a single stroke, giving a "second skin" feeling. Vogue's word: expectations for Rabanne's makeup line were high, considering the brand's avant-garde and impactful approach to fashion. Translating its fabrics and metallics into the world of beauty, Rabanne has created a vibrant, glitter-filled eyeshadow palette with highly pigmented colors. Even with all the glitter, they have a very soft texture and are easy to apply, whether with a brush or a finger. What's more, there was very little fallout during application, which is rare. A true masterpiece. Bravo, Rabanne!
