Dior offers a wide variety of different colours and finishes within their 5 Couleurs Eyeshadow Palette range. Personally, I tend to go for neutral colours in palettes and purchase brighter colours individually, as I use them a lot less. My choice this time round, Earth Reflection contains only shimmery shadows, which may not be to everyone's taste, but I just couldn't resist it, especially as metallics are always a trend in Autumn/Winter. With all of the colours complimenting each other well, this palette is so versatile, allowing you to create numerous looks. When travelling, I could happily just take this palette with me to cover every eventuality. Each shade is cool-toned, unlike the majority of bronze/brown eyeshadows that I own already, which is what makes this palette so special in my collection. 

All of the shadows are soft, smooth and blend so easily onto the eye. Above, I've used the shadows (all but the pink shade) in a subtle, daytime look, but you can easily build up the colours to deepen them (or even use a damp brush with them), to create something more dramatic for the evening. As expected from Dior, the packaging is sleek and sophisticated. The eyeshadows themselves are printed with the Dior Cannage, quilted pattern and the iconic CD lettering. At £40 for just 6g of product, this is on the expensive side. I know I will get a lot of use out of this palette though, so I'm not feeling too guilty.
