Review: Lancôme Richelieu Wing Palette

The Lancôme Richelieu Wing Palette is a limited-edition collaboration with the famed museum in Paris, the Louvre. The palette, which was designed by the renowned makeup artist Lisa Eldridge, includes four eyeshadow shades and a highlighter. The sparkly emerald shade is particularly stunning.

The palette, inspired by the Louvre’s marble sculpture of Corine, an ancient Greek poetess, has an elegant one-of-a-kind design. It comes in a deluxe outer case and the compact is large, weighty and feels luxurious.

The palette is versatile for the whole face, with a face highlighter and eyeshadow quad that can be used in multiple ways. The eyeshadows and highlighter, in a “baked gelee” formula, feature smooth textures, high pigmentation, and luminescent shimmer with minimal fallout. The shades are all embossed with a detail from the sculpture, which adds to the artistic feel of the palette.

Final Thoughts

As a limited-edition palette, it might be hard to find, but it’s worth seeking out. Overall, it’s a worthwhile investment for those seeking a high-quality, visually stunning palette.
