I have Stora Dolls, Soft Cashmere and Brun et Rose, so I think you saved me some $$. This was really helpful, thank you!

[@SofiaSeesBeauty]

Glad I could help!

[@kg8487]

Same! I have all those, plus the new CDP driftwood. I am on an eyeshadow fast for the rest of the year. Though this quad does look really stunning on Sophia…

[@lilyk7563]

Same! I also have TF nude dip and metallust and the old neutral chanel 9 pan palette 😅 I love these brown color stories and keep buying more even though on the eyes they all look the same.

[@zornitsastefanova9373]

Which one would you recommend, I have Stora Dolls and Soft Cashmere in my card and I am really struggling to choose 😔

[@amitbloom]

Stora Dolls is more for everyday. I think Soft Cashmere is better for nightime. It's more dramatic. Hopefully that helps!@@zornitsastefanova9373

[@arielts06]

This is exactly what I was hoping for, a slightly more brown and less grey version of soft cashmere. 🤩

[@SofiaSeesBeauty]

🙌🙌🙌

[@warmsoul8]

Sofia, thank you so much for this review and demo! I have been debating getting this palette because of Dior's reformulation and already having the old formula of soft cashmere and nude dress. I love that you film in natural light and provide swatch comparisons to other eyeshadows in your collection. I know I can always trust your opinion as well!🙂

[@SofiaSeesBeauty]

I’m so glad! Appreciate your feedback

[@leecoiner3293]

Beautiful look from a beautiful palette! Your comparisons were great. When I saw the side by side with Stora Dolls I felt fine about not running out and buying it. My wallet thanks you!

[@SofiaSeesBeauty]

Yay I’m glad!

[@hijennwu]

i like this color story more than soft cashmere as well. i know that one is iconic but it always seemed too greige for my skintone so this seems more suitable! i felt that way about nude dip as well.. a little cool for me, womp womp! seeing ND’s glam against these palettes often makes me wonder if that’s still the better investment since the pans are removable 😝 safe travels home!! x

[@SofiaSeesBeauty]

Thank you Jenn!

[@lisaraeroman3736]

I was so pushing down the pedal on this one…but I have the old Soft Cashmere, old New Look, AND the Chanel Brun ET Rose! Jamming on the breaks thanks to your review. Very helpful, Sophia, thank you!

[@tracysmith6865]

Excellent review! Love the look you did! So pretty!!!!

[@adr12346]

YASSS I have been debating for so long between Nude Dip, Soft Cashmere and Stora Dolls and I'm so glad I waited because this one looks perfect with the browner base and options for shimmer levels and depth. I'd also totally missed that they released this so thank you for reviewing! Great review and content as always 🔥

[@SofiaSeesBeauty]

Yay I’m so glad! 😁😁😁

[@lindadoney2703]

The palette is very nice on you. Love cool tones. Thanks for great demo.

[@debwoowoo]

Similar colors but why do I feel I still need it?! They look great on you! Thanks Sofia😂🥰

[@juliannamccardell]

i missed out on brun et rose and when i saw bal masqué, it instantly reminded me of the chanel. i’ve been waiting for your review to see if i was correct and i was, so i’m definitely gonna snag this one! thank you so much for your review, sofia!!

[@annemarietimmerman7213]

I do not have plans to purchase Dior shadow, but was amazed again how super this video is, and super complete with all this swatch comparisons, thanks so much Sofia, have a wonderful day!!!🤩🤩😘😘

[@celinag9968]

I am so glad I waited for review! I was also nervous to try it, I haven’t touched any of the reformulation quints yet. I think I may pick this up, I do like that it’s a more everyday soft cashmere, I like the browner base.

[@sarafraser2515]

I’m so late to this party, but THANK YOU for the side by sides!!

[@celiabonadies5667]

Beautiful!

[@maggyxchuu]

ADORE YOU FOR DOING THE SIDE BY SIDE SWATCHES 😭✨✨

[@SofiaSeesBeauty]

😇😇😘

[@lilyk7563]

Sofia you always have the best lip colors! What are some of your favorite shades?? I have less than a handful of lipsticks and would love some good neutral recs.

[@mariaraposo8300]

Glad I waited. I have all the comparison palettes so I can pass with no regrets

[@LisaF_]

I have Stora Dolls and the old formula in Soft Cashmere so I’m set…but I love this one!

[@karenrowan4806]

I would love to hear how it compares to Cle de Peau Sundried Driftwood!

[@SofiaSeesBeauty]

Good question! The sundried driftwood is much more purple!

[@shahad_alsayed]

Excellent exploration & you look stunning. To me comparing Dior Bal Masqué with Soft Cashmere perhaps like comparing Chanel Tisse Rivoli with Brun et Rose 😅

[@lydiakirkham3414]

Thank you for the review, Sofia!! I think it looks absolutely beautiful on your eyes 😍 which makes me want to buy it even more! I have all the comparison palettes you showed here and it is so similar to many of them, I really don't need it 😅 If it's permanent then I'll try to wait for it to pop up on other retailers here in the UK and try to get a discount on it 😊

[@SofiaSeesBeauty]

Of course! You might be able to get it at a department store during the holidays for a deal

[@celinag9968]

I’m pretty sure this is labeled as limited edition, but after the reformulation, I also don’t think their quints are flying off the shelves as quick either.

[@Makeupbyrach18]

Hi Sofia, this look is so gorgeous on you. I’m debating between Stora Dolls and this one. I did watch the comparison section and they both look beautiful. If you had to pick just one which would you recommend?

[@ddavidjp]

this was super helpful - thank you. i have all the comparison palettes so i’m skipping bal masque even though i’m really interested in it.

[@SofiaSeesBeauty]

Glad it was helpful!

[@colleenjohnstone4989]

Love your nails ❤

[@SofiaSeesBeauty]

Thank you!

[@houzzofbeauty]

I usually don’t comment but this was sooo helpful ❤ thank you 😊

[@SofiaSeesBeauty]

You’re so welcome!!

[@roaminghistorian2234]

Thanks, Sofia! I'm trying to decide between Bal Masque and Soft Cashmere. I'm looking for a palette that is more cool toned. You mentioned in the vid that Bal Masque has a cool tone...which do you think is cooler...Bal Masque or Soft Cashmere? Tia

[@Notperfecttonya]

I need to get this! Who cares if it’s durable? It’s Dior! 😅❤

[@TheStarsHaveAligned]

I think it resembles the 5 couleurs 508 dior nude pink design

[@adrianaferrer5941]

Thank you Sofia for your review of this beautiful palette, the colors are very similar to Natasha Denona's, if you were to invest, which would you choose this one from Dior or the Nude Palette by Natasha Denona?❤

[@SofiaSeesBeauty]

As someone who isn’t overwhelmed by big palettes, I would get the ND one. But I know a lot of people that just want quads and smaller palettes

[@pinkabuki]

I don't see this palette listed on sephora canada, only on dior's website. Is this a new palette that will be coming out everywhere later? It looks nice.

[@joanledesma9470]

💖💖💖

[@lisak7997]

❤❤❤

[@belabeautyandfashion]

How long does the eyeshadow stay on the eyelids? 🙏🏻

[@exomake_mehorololo]

😂Now I want this!! I actually don't like the ashy dark brown in the Soft Cashmere and I always found the shimmers too cool grey for my liking. They just don't look every day neutral on me... This one looks much prettier

[@theworldisavampire3346]

Omg. Ok, i have New Look, Popeline and Soft Cashmere. I KNOW i can recreate these. But i want. 😢

[@nykka3]

How can I confirm if i am purchasing the reformulated vs original Dior 5 pan pallete, wrt to soft cashmere?

[@elizabethh9591]

On the palette itself, if there is a CD on the lid where it closes, it is reformulated. If it has a straight edge, no CD logo where it opens/closes, it is the original. (as in the CD logo looks like a button to open/close the palette but it's not) - hope that helps.

[@nykka3]

@@elizabethh9591 thanks! Very helpful.

[@monicazhang1872]

I have soft cashmere and bal masque lol, and it feels kind of like having 2 soft cashmeres 😅 but would I give away the bal masque? Never 😂

[@Elizabeth-tm7xr]

looks like chanels mystique eyes eye quad

[@mollymeehl3015]

What's your favorite warm neutral palette?

[@SofiaSeesBeauty]

Viseart Minxette!

[@user-zb6hb4fs4p]

6 month shelf life?

[@SofiaSeesBeauty]

Yup all of the Dior palettes have the same shelf life. Idk it seems like all of us have been using them for much longer with no issues

[@MichelleVerona]

Was this limited edition? I can’t find it 😢

[@SofiaSeesBeauty]

It’s only on the Dior website. Maybe out of stock

[@Sophia-1122]

介紹的表情好生動，可以有中文字幕嗎？

[@courtlandacklin1985]

6 months? is that a marketing strategy or does it go rancid? i have channel for yeaars

[@literallyheather]

I think I will pick this up, but it looks like Chanel Tisse Essential. Is it similar? 🤎

[@SofiaSeesBeauty]

I don’t think I have that palette!

[@elainechiou]

The name is triggering me a little because it reminds me of my favourite Dior perfume the Grand Bal which has been discontinued! 🥹 Other than that, the colour story looks great😊

[@AliseL22]

Triggering most often refers to a "traumatic" event and really wish people would use it correctly and not overuse it. For people who have gone through assault/sexual assault/war/childhood abuse it is a serious matter. Just something to think about and will help you sound more thoughtful. 🦋
