This product is only expensive relative to other drugstore products; it has the quality of a higher end shadow and so is actually a bargain. The colour payoff is excellent and it goes on as...

I wish the colors stayed on because they are gorgeous in the pan and even when you swatch them. However, regardless of what base/ primer I use, these shadows simply do not stick on my lids! They...

This review goes for all of the Eye Studio Color Explosion eyeshadows - I own the blue, green, purple, and brown kits, and they are all ultra pigmented, have a super buttery formula, and they are...

LOVE the eyeshadow, Maybelline did a fantastic job of matching the colors up. I have Forest Fury and the green shadows really play up my blue eyes (which can look grey or greenish depending on the...

Simply stunning. Brings out my light brown hair and eyes perfectly. Picture taken 4 hours after application (with primer of course). Nothing about this product bothers me

While many find this product creases, I haven't had that issue at all (and I don't use a primer). Goes on smoothly. I've had the best luck when I apply the luminizer (top color) with my finger,...

FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE WONDERING* the top shade is NOT simply an eyeshadow, it is a sheer wash of glitter that you apply lightly over the shadows to give your look some extra shimmer if you...

Hmm, I’m surprised that lot of people didn’t think these shadows are good quality. I’ve always avoided Maybelline’s e/s like the plague because in my experience, these were always chalky, grainy,...

Amazing colours in this palette, perfect for a 'Britney' style eye look. Very different for a Drug Store palette - the colours do work together. Only problem with this is the staying power, the...

Applied these shadows dry over a paint pot primer, but the highlight shade and sparkle shade completely faded in about 3 hours. The other colors looked faded and muddy in about 5 hours. I probably...

I was so surprised by this eyeshadow; I'm not usually a big fan of Maybelline eyeshadows. I had to use this product wet to get the best results...but who am I kidding? Eyeshadows are always their...

I have the same complaint with this that I have with all Maybelline shadows: the colors are lush and vibrant in the package, but the eyeshadow itself is way too powdery. I would absolutely _never_...

Complete and utter crap. Save your money ladies. Picked one of these up on a whim at Ulta on lunch (along with a bunch of other random things I don't need). The colors are so pretty in the...

This is actually a review for the Caffeine Rush colors. All in all, the colors are nothing special. I found them kind of "blah," lacking no warmth. The only thing that made them even a little...

I wanted to love this eye shadow! The colors are amazing. I ended up returning it, and it was mostly because it has absolutely no staying power whatsoever. I applied it on top of my Urban...

Okay, I'm on the bandwagon. Now, I'm the first one to say Maybelline eyeshadows are generally horrid, or at least they were in the past. Chalky, no pigmentation, just the worst ones on the market...
