Hello Loves ♡
A little while ago my sister bought some make-up to try and one of the things she bought was the eye shadow quad from Revlon. Since this is a product always in your face when you visit the Revlon self, I though why not do a review about it.
If you would like to see some swatches and more photos click the link below!
Colors: When you first look at this palette, the colors are beautifully matched. You have a shimmery, pearl high-light. One grey and black shimmery shadows great for a chic look. Then a matte yellow for a extra pop of color.
When swatched once, you get very faint...i mean...FAINT swatches ( except for the white). Colors are so blah when applied. Even with a concealer base, the colors fail to show up.
Application: Application is so-so, after a few strokes I was able to get the shimmery colors evenly applied to my eyes. Though, the matte yellow was a fail because I had to literally scrape the pan to get the yellow color.
Btw, I used Sonia Kashuk Hidden Agenda Concealer Palette as my base.
Standby Time: This eyes shadow says it lasts for six-teen hours (claim), but most definitely not. I applied the eye shadow at 12:00 am and now it is 9:00 pm (total of eight hours) and the yellow is very-very faint. The shimmery, you would think would last, creased and pigmentation disappeared to the blah look.
Overall: 1/5
Quick Look: Blah colors and does not stand up to the claims it makes.
Will I repurchase: YES....lol, jk NO!!
Have you ever tried this product?
No concealer base, blah colors |
Concealer base, little difference. |
Not tried this product and don't think I will now. Thanks for this review.

DeleteSuch a shame that the yellow didn't perform well! I guess it's back to buying high-end yellow eyeshadows or pigments! Thanks for the heads up :) x
