Ultra Flesh (838)

Chanel Ultra Flesh (838) Ombre Premiere Longwear Cream Eyeshadow ($36.00 for 0.14 oz.) is a soft, pink-coral with warm undertones and a pearl sheen. It had opaque pigmentation, but the texture was drier and felt more silicone-heavy to me, which made it harder to apply evenly and even harder to diffuse evenly. The only way I could really get it to blend out was when I used fingertips, but then it was difficult to get any opacity out of the color. It wore well for 11 hours on me before creasing.

Formula Overview

$36.00/0.14 oz. - $257.14 Per Ounce

Chanel describes the formula as a “smooth-textured cream shadow [that] glides on effortlessly” and is “long-wearing.” Overall, the consistency has moderate slip–emollient but not greasy or overly wet in feel–and feels more like a traditional cream eyeshadow than Chanel’s Illusion d’Ombres. They go on as a thin layer but have fairly good pigmentation. The formula dried down quite quickly leaving little time for blending or diffusing edges, even when working one eye at a time, which was where I struggled. I think some of them tended to work better as lid colors and using something else for a more diffused/blended out crease color. They did, however, wear impeccably for as long as fourteen hours on me–no creasing, fading, or flaking.

Vert Metal (836)

Chanel Vert Metal (836) Ombre Premiere Longwear Cream Eyeshadow ($36.00 for 0.14 oz.) is a muted, medium-dark forest green with warm, olive undertones and a satin sheen. It had semi-opaque, buildable color payoff that applied somewhat evenly but was better as a base or gently sheered out (will be better for someone with a medium or deeper skin tone). The texture was smooth to the touch, dense, and just lightly creamy. It stayed on well for 12 and a half hours on me.
