Dior 2013 Bird of Paradise 5 Couleurs Palettes

As part of the Dior 2013 Bird of Paradise collection, two 5 Couleurs Eyeshadow Palettes were released for the summer season. If you like things more subdued, Peacock 434 is the user-friendly one to get. There's something for everyone (gold beige, light chartreuse, etc.), yet my favorite was the gray-blue shade. It's not too dark and it's absolutely lovely for brown eyes. Overall, a solid range of colors but use your best makeup primer as these colors tend to fade. 

If blue and green are your colors, you're in luck with the Blue Lagoon 374 palette. You can go sheer to dramatic throughout the day and not worry about bringing another eyeshadow pot into your makeup bag. This one was also easier to blend, making it my favorite of both palettes. The shades also held on longer than palette 434, which is a big plus.
