Yves Rocher Matte Tri-Tone Eyeshadows ~ All I Need Everyday


This is the very first Yves Rocher product I ever bought, and I'm quite impressed. This eyeshadow trio was the only thing I used everyday single during our 2-week vacation last month. It is so easy to use and has got all the colors I need for an everyday neutral, sometimes smokey, look. I love it!

This 2 1/2 x1 1/2 " palette is small & light, and it fits in my palm. It comes with a pretty good dual-sided sponge tip applicator-one side big & the other small and pointy, so I do use it quite a lot.

Yves Rocher Matte Tri-Tone Eyeshadow
There are about 5-6 shades available, and I picked Prune Rose...
Prune Rose

Luminous colors, structured look- With smoothing rice powder


Colors: Dark chocolate brown, plum brown & pale shimmery pink.
*Camera didn't pick up the purple undertone that the plum brown has. Same with  the lightest color, which looks more pink off camera. But swatches below are pretty accurate....


The eyeshadows have a smooth texture, blend easily, and are pigmented. I like that they made the lightest color shimmery, coz matte light colors tend to look chalky.

  • Pale pink on the inner corners, brow bone & 3/4th of lid
  • Plum brown on outer corner & on lower lash line
  • Dark chocolate brown to line top (and winged) and bottom lash line.
Other products used: Lotus Kajal & Maybelline Pulse Perfection Mascara.


Price ~ Rs.550
Rating ~ ♥♥♥♥4./5. I wish it was a little cheaper. Maybelline quads cost Rs.225 and they are bigger! I also wish it had a mirror.

Availability ~ Yves Rocher products are sold in Guardian Pharmacy in New Delhi. there's one in Select City walk Mall, Saket.

Have you tried anything Yves Rocher?

  1. I've been using Yves Rocher lip balms ever since I can remember. I get them from switzerland. They're great! I'm currently using 'Baume Reparateur au Beurre de Karite' (clear) and 'Les Plaisirs Nature - strawberry' (tinted). Je prefer le Baume Reparateur :)

  13. I didn't know about this brand either, though I knew about the man behind it. Isn't that odd? I can't find this shade of the tri tones on the website! I'll have to try one of the others >O>

  19. I love Yves Rocher products! I saw a huge water Nymph collection in Paris in the Spring. I'm sure it'll be ages before it comes to Bangalore. Cynthia are they selling the skin care products as well, i.e. body lotions, shower gels etc?

I ♥ finding little notes in my Vanity Case, so do drop one. I read all of them & I try my best to reply to each & every one of them [check back in 2-3 days =D] but most times it's physically impossible! Either way, I love to hear from you & really appreciate you taking the time out to share your thoughts <3

Thank you for reading! :)
