Dolce & Gabbana Desert Quad: An Unsung Makeup Hero
It was hot enough to fry an egg on the sidewalk.
That's how how hot it gets in Davis, California, where I went to school. I tin't believe I'd go jogging in the center of the day back then at the top of summertime. It would be 110 degrees outside, with waves of estrus rippling off the sidewalk and vultures circumvoluted loftier overhead, and there'd I'd be, jogging my steaming buns off betwixt classes.
In parts of the California Cardinal Valley, it gets hotter than Death Valley. I'g serious. A whole swath of the state basically turns into a desert every summer, which reminds me…
I've liked Dolce & Gabbana's Eyeshadow Quad in Desert ($60) ever since I started wearing it off and on in 2010, but I but recently barbarous Beyonce-crazy-in-love with it.
I noticed that I was bringing it with me on all of my trips this summer. I literally wasn't leaving the house without it, and I think the mattes have everything to do with it.
At that place are three of them in this quad — a beige, a golden brown and a dark chocolate brown, all of which are the freakin' ish — as well equally a hit-the-pan worthy gilded shade, which we'll go to in a minute.
As I'm sure I've mentioned (multiple times) this summer, me and matte eyeshadows have been similar this lately (they're then kind to my fine lines!). I've as well been diving full-on into the electric current '90s makeup revival, and have been wearing a lot of mattes, especially Dolce & Gabbana's, which I retrieve are some of the easiest, almost forgiving high-end mattes around.
Kickoff, naught fallout. When I wear these shadows, I don't see any. At all. Then that'south one matter. Second, they're silkier than silk, and then they don't await or feel like tiny anvils on my lids. And third, they don't look dry or flat, unlike many other mattes.
With a primer, these shadows last 10-11 hours on me, and they blend like room temperature, full-fat butter.
Mmmm, butter…
No, seriously. Even when I'g totally non-functional beginning matter in the morning time, which is about 99.9% of my mornings, I know I can catch this quad and do a quickie defined archetype middle look without having to dedicate too many neurons to blending.
The long-running Unsung Heroes serial features some of my favorite permanent drove products from a diverseness of bodacious beauty brands.
Most of the fourth dimension when I use this, I'll sweep the aureate brown in the pucker, blend the chocolate brown in the outer corners, buff the beige on my brown os and lid, and add a touch of the gold in the inner corner — you know, to suspension up the mattes and burnish the eyes.
And so, that gold shade? Bomb. Information technology has a subtle sheen to it, only nothing too frosty. For instance, it's nowhere almost a high-shine shimmer, so you tin go a soft glow similar to the Hourglass Ambience Face Powders — merely a subtle reflection where you lot place it. Nothing also in your face, like "HAAAY GURL, HAAAY!"
Even if you commonly avoid wearing shimmers on your lids, I think you might like this gold, for reals.
And when I feel like turning things up, I'll add black liner, false lashes and a ruby-red lip, like I did here for these pics. Piece of cake-peasy, classically chichi.
Between this quad and the Smoky quad (another favorite of mine from the line), my lids have been lovin' Dolce & Gabbana these days. 🙂
You can find the $60 Desert Quad sizzling at present at Dolce & Gabbana counters, Sephora and online.
Your friendly neighborhood beauty aficionado,
