   This is a beautiful quad and yet another one I purchased last year. It was a bad time so I was coping by making unnecessary purchases.

   This is not a bad buy.
   You can, nowadays, get a similar effect with some drugstore quads depending on the brushes you use.

   With Chanel you have to remember generally they have mediocre payoff- it’s about the hazy effect without being washed out/chalky, that makes them flattering. And this one I like more than their others (aside from Mystic Eyes) because it isn’t as dirty/muddy in colours, it’s about clarity and light.

   I do think there isn’t much depth to the shades – it comes across as a monochromatic shimmery sheen once applied, but that’s fine. It is called Codes Subtils.
   Wears well- I’m not sure about the darkest being long-wearing (it’s one I rarely use) but the rest are decent. No irritation to my sensitive eyes. The extremely fine shimmer does not fall out like ByTerry/Naked Reloaded (both awful for sensitive eyes). It is well integrated into the formula and adheres just with a finger/sponge application.

   Codes Subtils is true to its name – perfect for when you want a polished yet subtle eye look. The shades include a pale pink, light gold, medium-toned copper and a dark bronzey green. You wouldn’t think they go together but once applied they harmonize perfectly. All are shimmery but not frosty, and the silky smooth texture blends well used either wet or dry. In short, it’s a sophisticated, highly wearable palette.

   This is an amazing quad. It is a part of the spring 2017 collex as mentioned by the previous reviewer. I love the shades the green is classy & well done as the gold just beautifully done this is a timeless quad that can be worn during the entire year well into summer & I’ll get a lot of wear out of this quad. It’s nice that Chanel comes out with something different for the seasons rather than relying on 1 large overly hyped palette such TF, Kvd, Lorca, UD et al that nobody can get but it can be annoying if it sells out on the website the Chanel dot com is not immune to 250,000 women wanting a released 5,000 items make them highly coveted!!

   Codes Subtils is one of the two eyeshadow palettes in the Chanel Spring 2017 makeup collection, Coco Codes. There are four shades: a light yellow-gold, a pale pink-gold, a medium warm bronze brown and a medium muted olive green. They are all quite shimmery, so – depending on how much you like shimmer – you may want to use a light hand for application and blend well for daytime wear, or keep this palette for evening. The colors are beautiful and work very well together; they go on creamy and blend easily.
