I love the packaging of Dior's Detective Chic series! I have two now, but am looking forward to when they release more :)
These are last year's releases, I think:
Edit: The white palette is from Fall 2006, while the black was Fall 2007 and is still available at Sephora.com.
My most recent acquisition is the white one - (I got this off Ebay before Easter weekend so nope I'm still doing good on my makeup ban, in fact I'm at 30 days now :P)
According to the box, its a highlighting palette for face and eyes.
I hope they'll put out an eyeshadow one with more exciting shades later this year. The eyeshadow one that I have is composed of neutrals and greys, and half the colours are matte. Great for work, but kinda boring so I hardly use it. Got this one back in November.
Swatched:

Can't wait 'til you review the highlighting palette. It looks very pretty. The brown one is nice too. Reminds me of camouflage uniforms or "camos". Great for autumn months.
I thought they were wallets lol! They really are cute and they colors look warm :) How much were they? And off eBay??? I'm still too chicken to buy anything from there makeup wise :/
ooh, i really like the neutral palette. i'm more partial to neutral colors. i know, i'm boring. haha.
aww you are good with your ban.. mine was non-existent but i did manage to cut down somewhat! LOL. yeah i like dior packaging but since i got into MAC and other brands, ive used Dior less n less. the swatch is really nice, def great for everyday work look!
O_O *oogles* so pretty
ooo, i love the packaging AND the colors...!!
those are really cute! great job on your no-buy.
OOoo i love the packaging, the black one is very chic heheh, the colours look good :)
her.peachieness: i could review it if you do want to know more?
ilurvemakeup: haha i guess they do look like wallets! the white one was $37 including shipping. the black one, because I got it from Sephora, AND this is canada, they had it priced for >$62 + taxes....thinking about it I was crazy to pay that amount. I think the US retail price is better, about $50?
tracy: neutral isn't so bad - at least no one will tell you that you have on too much :) i'm in between - i don't like neutral but don't like too bright colours on myself either.
nicnic: lol actually it helps that I know i can buy more makeup after the 2 months is up. I think yours was about giving it up for much longer, so that would be harder for me to stick to as well.
jiejie: thanks! i'm starting to crack a bit though...i really REALLY want to buy something right now :S
bliss, incandescent, gezebel: i actually love the packaging more than the colours :P i hope they come out with even better ones this year :)
Ooo lucky! I've never scored the Dior Chic Shimmer Powder Palette!
Wanted it forevers though :(
I kinda miss the old palette style. Solid silver. The new couture inspired palettes aren't as gorgeous!
what a pretty range of brown in this palette!
mmmm neutral greens and browns...*drool*
Wooo~~~ nice Dior palette!
