Welcome back,
One item I will share with you today I got on a deep discount which is a Maybelline Eyestudio quint. On a separate shopping day I also picked up two more of the new formulation/ new packaging Maybelline quads. I already did one review on 3 of these new formulation quads if you want to take a look at those colours click on the link below
Maybelline QUADS 1ST REVIEW
MAYBELLINE EYESTUDIO-15 FOREST FURY
I really like the greens offered up in this quint. They are super soft and have excellent colour payoff. I don't know why I have not tried these sooner, very pleased.
Maybelline QUADS 1ST REVIEW
MAYBELLINE EYESTUDIO-15 FOREST FURY
I really like the greens offered up in this quint. They are super soft and have excellent colour payoff. I don't know why I have not tried these sooner, very pleased.
At the top is a creamy champagne highlight that has noticeable iridescent glitter. The dark green in the middle has a satin finish. The lime green to the left and the sea foam green to the right are both very bold colours that run more metallic along with the yellow at the bottom that has a tiny hint of a green undertone.
I highly recommend these eyeshadows especially if you like big impact colour
MAYBELLINE EXPERT WEAR QUAD- NATURAL SMOKES
A very pleasant nude quad that can be used for day or night looks. This quad consists of two matte and two shimmer shadows.
I feel this is one of the very best of the new formulation quads out of the five I have purchased. The texture of the shadows are all really soft, even the ones with shimmer. The pigmentation is excellent especially that dark chocolate brown on the right end. I hope you all give this quad a try. I feel this one will be a hot seller for those that love their neutrals. The shimmer on my middle finger is a slivery taupe and the bronze on my ring finger has an ever so slight burgundy tinge if you take a look in person.
EXPERT WEAR QUAD- CHAI LATTE
This quad has a soft dusty beige base colour, a rich cooper that is a little deeper then Maybelline's single pan colour called "Copper Craze". The crease colour is a gentle cocoa powder brown and the liner shade is a warm moka brown with goldish/red fine glitter.
From L2R-This quad has a satin base colour, the lid shade is shimmer, the crease shade is matte and the liner shade is fine glitter.
I am more satisfied with the purchase of these two quads then I was with the three I purchased earlier in December. I say these should be on your list of inexpensive quads to get soon.
HAVE ANY OF YOU PICKED UP THE NEWLY FORMULATED QUADS, IF SO WHAT COLOURS DID YOU PICK???
THANKS FOR READING AND HAVE A GREAT DAY
XOXO:)
I have heard mixed reviews on the Maybelline quads. My favorite from the drugstore is a Covergirl trio in Shimmering Sands. I have used it forever and it is still so pretty!
ReplyDeleteI use to use the trio called "golden sunset" and it was quite nice, I currently have "major distraction" in my collection and I was content with the colour payoff with that one too. As a whole though CG is not a brand I tend to gravitate to very often. Thanks for reading. Be sure to enter my Epic Blend lipbalm giveaway if you haven't yet.:)
ReplyDeleteThese are gorgeous! Maybelline have definitely improved the formula and quality of their shadows based off what I've seen here. I have two much older Maybelline quads from 2009??? They are chalky and have no pigmentation whatsoever =( I may pick up Forest Fury, that's just too gorgeous!!! March will be here soon and I would love to incorporate green eyes for the month hehe! Thanks love for sharing! I heart you! <3
ReplyDeleteAt first I was getting a little discouraged with the inconsistency of even these new formula's but these last two neutral quads really made up for it. Thanks for stopping by as always. Big Love xo:)
DeleteOoh that Chai Latte one is calling my name!!! So pretty!!! Great buys girl!
ReplyDeleteIf you find them near you and get it I would love to see you post a look using it, I think it will suit you well.:)
DeleteYou have officially confirmed that I need the Natural Smokes Quad in my life. lol. And I might as well pick up Chai Latte - solely for the name, but of course the colors are pretty as well. ;)
