Explore Dior’s Night Walk (043) Eyeshadow Palette
Dior Night Walk (043) 5 Couleurs Couture Eyeshadow Palette ($68.00 for 0.24 oz.) is a captivating, limited edition holiday eyeshadow palette that features a stunning grayscale and smoky color story, highlighted by a striking darker gold shade in the center. While the addition of a warm gold may seem like an interesting choice, it contrasts sharply with the rest of the cooler tones, which could confuse the intended look. Considering that Dior had launched a warmer, bronzy palette simultaneously, a cohesive warm or cool theme would have been more effective. Ultimately, the palette’s overall quality did not meet expectations, making it less appealing to makeup enthusiasts.

In-Depth Formula Overview
–
This eyeshadow formula is designed to provide a “creamy and comfortable texture” that ensures long-lasting wear and delivers “intense color” or “high-pigment” results. Various palettes feature five distinct finishes: matte, satin, shimmer, metallic, highlighter, and glitter. Unfortunately, specific descriptions for each finish are lacking.
Some shades exhibit a more sparkly quality and are sheer, making them suitable as layering shades, while others maintain a higher pigmentation level. The texture is generally moderately dense, with matte shades being slightly thinner and marginally powdery in the pan compared to satin, shimmer, and metallic finishes.
Aside from the sparklier shades, the formula is blendable, pigmented, and easy to work with, averaging about eight hours of wear without a primer.
