The shimmer spectrum of new Luminescent Eye Shades is inspired by Africa’s gorgeous wildlife.

Chantecaille, the beauty company setting a luxurious standard in the world of modern, botanical skincare and cosmetics, created Luminescent Eye Shades – the beauty brand’s first permanent philanthropy eye collection. The collection honors six of Africa’s most endangered species and to support the conservation charities protecting them from extinction.

This collection of rich, pearlescent eye shadows is inspired by six beautiful creatures – cheetah, elephant, giraffe, lion, pangolin and rhinoceros – that are among Africa’s most endangered. All of these wild animals face common threats from shrinking habitats, conflict with local communities, and the illegal wildlife trade.

These creamy, earth-toned shadows have a gel-powder formula infused with pure-pearl particles that create a wash of color that never creases and dazzles on the eyelid (Cheetah- Warm Champagne/ Elephant- Shimmering Taupe Grey; Lion– Golden Copper; Giraffe- Burnished Brow; Rhinoceros- Sophisticated Olive; Pangolin- Dusky Lilac). The new Shade and Sweep Brush was designed to pair perfectly with the Luminescent Eye Shade collection. This brush features beyond-soft vegan bristles that pick up precise amounts of shadow for exceptional payoff and easy application.

“You know how much we love the wildly impressive Lion Guardians,” said Chantecaille’s team.

“We’re proud to support their cause on a continuous basis with new Luminescent Eye Shade in shimmery copper Lion. Their creative approach to protecting lions and local communities in Kenya and beyond has made huge conservation impact: they empower local warriors to become the lions’ fiercest protectors.
