Review
Okay so I finally broke down and got the Maybelline Natural Smokes Quad. Longs/CVS is having a 40% off sale on all Maybelline products this week. When it comes to eyeshadow I'm a bit of a texture snob. I need that smooth, buttery, easily blendable texture. Therefore I usually prefer high end eyeshadow over drugstore.
With that being said...
Pros: This is a good quality eyeshadow quad. You get two shimmer and two matte shades. The eyeshadows are highly pigmented, the colors blend together well and are not chalky. You can create a subtle daytime look or dramatic nighttime look using just this quad. It's very affordable and great for on the go. Most impressive color for me was the dark brown Outer Corner shade, it is MAC quality and my ideal shade of dark brown.
Cons: The Lid color has a lot of glitter fallout which ended up all over my cheeks, pores and upper lip. The glitter fallout was difficult to remove. Texture is not as buttery as I would like, but for only $4 it wasn't bad. Packaging is cheap.
The verdict: Maybelline Natural Smokes is one of the better drugstore eyeshadow quads out there. I recommend checking it out.
Will I repurchase? I will enjoy this quad but probably won't repurchase due to the annoying glitter fallout.
