OMG - Thank You!!! I have been waiting for these and stalking like crazy. Cuir Cannage is screaming my name.For those in the US - remaining fall E/S palettes are now up at Dior http://www.dior.com/beauty/en_us/fragrance-and-beauty/makeup/look-exclusives/fall-look-collection/pr-collection5couleurs-Y0148400-couture-colours-effects-eyeshadow-palette.html
Those are the two I want. Now I can't decide which one to get. Or if I should get both. I'm trying to spend a little bit less. Cuir Cannage looks quite warm - and I don't want another warm toned palette right now - plus it will pull even warmer on me. 30 Montaige looks like it might be better for my skin tone. Gah. I'm just not sure.I really want Cuir cannage as well! Also maybe Montaigne. I was attracted to femme fleur, but decided to get guerlain les violines instead. My instinct is to buy every purple palette, but I'm really trying to narrow down and focus my purchases.
I'm almost positive they are all permanent. I was talking to a product specialist from NM who represents Dior and Guerlain and he told me that they were going to be permanent.These are all permanent, is that correct? I didn't see any indicated as LE on Dior.com. It would be nice if they were so I don't have to scoop them up right away. There are entirely too many pretty things out this fall ;-)
I really like the colors of Trafalgar too, but it definitely lacks pigmentation dry...I think using a damp brush really helps.This thread was a good idea. I have Trafalgar- agree that not the most pigmented thing out there, but I liked the colors so much I got it anyway. You can build some coverage. I spent mad dollars a while ago getting Cuir Cannage from Ebay because I didn't want to wait for the quint. It's really nice and does not disappoint. Definitely great colors with nice pigmentation and texture. Thanks for the info as I was wondering when the other quints would hit here in U.S.
Oh I'm right there with you on #796 Cuir Cannage--I've been eyeing for weeks! I really, really want it!!!OMG - Thank You!!! I have been waiting for these and stalking like crazy. Cuir Cannage is screaming my name.
I find my Trafalgar to be EXTREMELY pigmented to the extent that I and have to exercise care not to over do it.This thread was a good idea.

I use a MAC 249 & it grabs the product really well---so much so that I have to be careful not to put too much E/S on.I really like the colors of Trafalgar too, but it definitely lacks pigmentation dry...I think using a damp brush really helps.
I'm a little surprised these palettes haven't shown up online at any other department stores yet. I have to admit it feels a little anti-climactic at this point...but of course I still want them! Nice of you to keep your SA in mind. I'm the same way, if I find someone who is super helpful and reliable, I always try to buy from them whenever possible. I worked at Bloomies once, so I know what it's like for them!
I already feel like I've cheated on her because I purchased palettes Bar & Trafalgar-----I was to impatient to wait for Sax to get them.

I don't have the 249, but this morning I used my 242 and it made a world of a difference!!! I never though I could get Trafalgar to be that pigmented. Next I'm going to try 242 ( I always use 239 for powder eyeshadows.) for my Stylish Move palette(which has the same dryness/ pigmentation issues). Thank you so much!!!I use a MAC 249 & it grabs the product really well---so much so that I have to be careful not to put too much E/S on.
