Maybelline Eyeshadow Review and Swatches

Maybelline, as a brand, never failed on me. Be it their blushes, Nail paints, Eyeshadow, Lipsticks, Lip Glosses........anything. I love a lot of things about the brand. But let me deal with it one by one......

This is my collection of their eyeshadow quads. They are the Maybelline Expertwear eyeshadow quads.

(From L-R)Chai Latte, Time for Wine, Sea Shore frosts, Emerald Isle and Pot of Gold.



They are all of the same quality. Some of them are matte, some are frosts and some are super shimmery. They are all priced at Rs.225 and are available at Pantaloons, Shoppers Stop, Lifestyle stores across India.

All in all they are good and really good.

Coming to the swatches.....


Chai Latte and Time for Wine( Colours in the order Lid, Crease, Brow and Outer Corner)



Thought these 2 look similar in the swatch...they are way too different. Chai Latte is a neutral brown colour which can be used for everyday natural look and the lid colour is a matte light taupe colour, the crease is a shimmery golden brown colour, the brow colour is a pearl off white colour and the outer corner colour is a matte deep brown colour. This is a very awesome quad and gives a very natural looking finish. The crease colour could be used independently all over the lid for a  MAC Amber Lights kind of look!

Time for wine is a super neutral plum/wine coloured look quad.The lid colour is a pearl light pinky white colour, the crease is a matte wine colour, the brow colour is a pearl pink colour and the outer corner colour is a super shimmery plum/wine colour. This again is a very awesome quad and gives a very natural looking finish.The outer corner colour could be used independently all over the lid as well!!!It has huge glitter particles in it.

Now the next 2 quads are



(L-R)Sea Shore Frosts and Emerald Isle(Lid,Crease,Brow, Outer Corner)

Sea Shore Frosts is a multi coloured quad.The lid colour is a pearly light blue colour, the crease is a mauve colour, the brow colour is a pearl pink colour and the outer corner colour is a super super beautiful turquoise colour. This again is a very awesome quad and gives a very colourful finish.I don't use this quad as specified in the order. I just use them independently or in combi of 2 colours. Very colourful and cute quad.

Emerald Isle is a super neutral Green coloured look quad.The lid colour is a pearl light green colour, the crease is a frosty green colour(MAC Humid!), the brow colour is a pearl light light green and the outer corner colour is a frosty olive green(MAC Henna) colour. The crease colour and the Outer corner colours could be used independently all over the lid as well!!!It has a good frosty finish to it.

The last quad and my most recent purchase is this one

Pot Of Gold(Lid, Crease, Brow, Outer Corner)



Pot of gold is a super goldeny Bluey coloured look quad.The lid colour is a super pigmented GOLDEN colour, the crease is a matte blue/grey colour, the brow colour is a pearly off white colour and the outer corner is an amazing awesome velvety dark blue(Deep Truth by MAC) colour. I got this quad for its outer corner Navy blue colour and the Golden lid colour. Even you could pair the crease blue/grey colour and the outer corner colour.......there is no end to creativity.

Thought the quads mention the Lid, crease, brow, outer corner etc....there is no end to your creativity. You could pull out 2 colours that you think would suit well and create a simple look.

MY TAKE:
I love all the quads equally.hence no specific choice..but do get your hands on anyone of them and surely the others would follow.

My next post would be on guess what....Loreal Color Appeal Trio Pro Start secret eyeshadow trios!!!!!!!
