Luxury eye shadow is expensive. Prices for cosmetics from this price segment are always several times higher: the cost of small mono-shadows starts from 1,700 rubles and more. And for a full-fledged palette with 5-10 shades, you will have to pay 4000-8000 rubles. However, the cost of luxury in most cases justifies itself - such a high quality cannot be found among mid-budget and premium eye cosmetics.
Chanel is the most sought after luxury eyeshadow brand. Palettes from the French fashion house have long been loved by Russian beauties. Moreover, some ladies use Chanel products for professional make-up. True, the opinions of makeup artists on the need to purchase an expensive luxury diverge: now you can find inexpensive durable cosmetics and 1.5-2 times cheaper.But girls who are accustomed to a soft texture, light fragrance and high safety of the composition rarely refuse already proven luxury shadows. After all, the quality here is already felt from the packaging itself.
Top 10. Chanel Les 4 Ombres
Les 4 Ombres by Chanel scored the maximum number of reviews in the collection. The line owes its popularity to the harmonious combination of shades and good durability.

The most popular shadows from the French brand are suitable for both salon use and independent make-up. Judging by the opinion of makeup artists, this collection is really safe for sensitive eyes: many professionals advise Les 4 Ombres to girls who wear contact lenses. True, there are no very bright shades here, but Chanel fundamentally does not produce cosmetics in extravagant colors. Easy to apply on the eyelid, all the colors in the palette blend well with each other. The collection definitely deserves attention. But due to the flowability of light shades and the small volume of refills, the line, unfortunately, has a low rating.

- The color on the skin is identical to the shade in the palette.
- Dense rich coverage without discomfort

For the best effect, many ladies advise using the wet method of application: the color is more saturated, and the shades are not so dusty.
