There’s a morsel of that marvelously mysterious Chanel wow factor fluttering about the cool-toned Rouge Bunny Rouge Loess Eye Shadow Palette, and oh! — I’d also like to say that if you have warm-toned skin like I do, I’m 100% convinced that warm-toned wonder women can also wear cooler tones like these.
Now back to what I was saying about that Chanel wow factor…
RBR had fun with the finishes in this pigmented palette in a way that reminds me of Coco. There are four powder shadows — a rose, a beige, a purplish taupe and a gray — with finishes that combine the best of the satin and matte worlds. They blend with the ease of a satin but look a little like mattes on the lids. You can see see that a glint is there at first glance, but when you pause to look more closely, where did it go!? it disappears…
Don’t you just love subtle touches in makeup like that?
About these colors, I’m always surprised by the potency of Rouge Bunny Rouge eyeshadow and how I can get away with using so little. Even with colors like these, which I wouldn’t assume would look very punchy on my skin, I don’t have to use as much as I expected to.
The first time I used this palette, I piled it on, but I’ve come to realize that I didn’t have to. Here I’m wearing two layers of the purple taupe on my lids (and I’m also wearing the gray as a liner), and I probably could’ve gotten away with one.
Loess is available now, and I’m pretty sure it’s limited edition, so don’t delay, if you’re interested! If you are, RBR is offering a 20% discount for MBB readers using code RBR-MAKEUPANDBEAUTYBLOG20.
That discount applies to all purchases on the U.S. Rouge Bunny Rouge website, BTW, and lasts through the end of August.
You know me… I love a good sale. 🙂
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
It looks nice on you, but cool toned neutrals and I have never been friends. 🙁
This is a beautiful little palette! I love these cool tones-nice to see in a sea of warm toned palettes right now!
I dont think Rouge Bunny Rouge is available where I live, I am partial to a little taupe on my eyes.
Hi Karen! I love RBR and you had introduced me to the brand first.
Thanks for the code! It is not working though and sending an invalid code message.
Hi Bashak!
Thanks for letting me know. Let me do some digging and get back to you!
Hi again Bashak,
Just wanted to let you know that the code should be working now. 🙂 Happy shopping and let me know if you find anything that I need in my life ASAP!
Thank you Karen! I have the liquid bronzer and I love it! I am stocking up on the black eye pencil; I find it equivalent to Chanel’s Noir Intense. I am curious about the highlighter liquid and heard great things but cannot justify a purchase since I have several liquid highlighters.
One of the brands that I’d like to come to the UK. I’d love to try their diaphanous powder. This palette is pretty, I’d totally wear shades like these
Reminds me a little bit of Chanel’s Prelude Quad (an oldie but good one). The colors in this are beautiful, so I think I’ll pick it up!
Very nice finish! That’s awesome that you have your very own RBR discount code, too. 🙂
I can’t say that I am familiar with this brand. The palette looks really nice, but for a few dollars more, I would stick with Chanel. I am thinking about getting a new eyeshadow quad since I finished the one I purchased awhile back. I may try the Tisse Rivoli if it still exists. right now, I am loving this cream shadow in Undertone.
Be well!
Oh, I love me some RBR. I wish it was easier to get a hold of and had wider distribution.
