About the Product:Expertly matched shades work beautifully together or on their own. The Silky, sheer formulas helps to blend shades effortlessly. It is easy to create any look you want – from subtle and natural to intense and smoky…It is shadow made simple!
Ingredients:
How to Use:
Texture and Pigmentation:The texture is pretty light and smooth and easy to blend…its absolutely silky with little fall out during application. Pigmentation wise its sheer with a hint of shimmer in all the 4 shades in the quad. Though the shades are not highly pigmented but the desired tint can easily be built.
My Experience: When it comes to eye makeup I feel lost at times…I am not much of an eye makeup person but I do like to try…I like using subtle shades to begin with or drastic super dark shades for smoky eyes; for me this palette solves the purpose as it has 2 subtle (pale blue and aqua green) shades and 2 super dark (navy and teal) shades. This quad comes with a double sided sponge applicator with a see through cover…so packaging wise it’s pretty basic. The shades are silky smooth in texture and are easy to blend with a high scope of color building as they are sheer in nature and the shades can be transformed into any look right from a soft day look to a glam night look in just a few minutes. I make it a point to prime my eyes before using this quad so that the color stays for a long time without creasing on the lids.
Likes:1. Silky soft texture.2. Easy to blend.3. The shades are perfectly matched. 4. Quad is travel friendly.5. It allows for subtle to dramatic to smoky eye look.6. Easy on the pocket.
Dislikes:1. Not everyone may like the presence of shimmer in the shades.2. The applicator is just good for one use.3. Eyes need to be primed else the eye shadows crease.
All in all it’s a good quad with beautiful shades which can be used alone as well as together for creating various looks. The pigmentation could have been better but then all the shades are easily buildable and are effortlessly blendable even with the fingers. So I would say it s a pretty good drugstore quad!!
