"STUDS AND SKULLS" QUO'S LIMITED EDITION HALLOWEEN QUAD & GLOSS

Hi everyone,

Today I wanted to share with you the limited edition Halloween/fall quad from QUO. The collection is called "STUDS & SKULLS". It offers up 4x 2.8g eye shadows and one lip gloss that is 3.8g.
There are two different quads to choose from, one which is a purple and plum toned collection and the other which I opted for is a neutral brown quad. The quad comes with two matte shades and two that have a slight shimmer nothing to crazy. I feel this is appropriate for all ages and has no restrictions due to crazy colours or finishes.
The highlight of this quad is the super rock on packaging that obviously I just can't get enough of, have a look.


I find the quality of the shadows ok, this brings me back to Quo being some what hit or miss with a lot of their products, that's why I don't buy that line often. However being neutral colours I am not to concerned and the lip gloss is pretty but does not last on the lip long and is a bit tacky feeling.
 
The swatches are not fabulous, but here they are!
 

 
I do love the colours in the package they look very appealing. I am wearing this on my eyes today which is Oct.21. I think it does a nice job for everyday wear. I do find they blend out decently and wear quite a while on the eye without moving, especially with a good primer. However when brushing across the product it is quite dusty. I feel quality wise it doesn't fit the price which was $20
 
If nothing else I love the tin and will use it long after the shadows are gone, but I wish Quo would be more consistent with their product line, especially the limited edition products they bring out.
 
Quo is sold exclusively at Shoppers Drug Mart
 
LET ME KNOW IF YOU LIVE IN CANADA AND HAVE PICKED UP ANYTHING FROM THE STUDS & SKULLS COLLECTION AND IF YOU LOVE IT OR HATE IT???
 
THANKS FOR READING
 
STAY BEAUTIFUL XO

  2. Omg I love that packaging! I like the color of the gloss too. You're right, the swatches don't look all that great $20, which is probably paying for the packaging. Hehe. I always love to read your reviews. So honest and knowledgeable. :)

    How did your birthday go btw!?

    1. The gloss is a very pretty colour. Glad your enjoying my posts and honesty. As I always say "Honesty is the best policy";)
      My birthday was good obviously did some shopping and picked up somethings I really needed and some things I just really wanted. I had Chinese food because I love it. I spent the day with my son out in nature which is our favourite place to be.

  3. This is a very pretty quad!! I'm LOVING the packaging the most! Hehe. I understand what you mean about the shadows being dusty. No bueno =( But at least it held up nicely for you and it's a neutral palette which can be used everyday like you said, so the products will be gone in no time and then you can do whatever you want with the tin! =D

    Thank you for sharing this with us my love! xoxo

    1. I think this is the only makeup line that I am constantly at war with though. I want to love it so bad because they have some great ideas, but some how they always fall short for me.

  5. I didn't like the brown one. It doesn't have too much pigment and I need to brush it a long time to see colour. Very disappointed.
