Great neutral eyeshadow quad. The shadows are very pigmented and they last all day. I personally prefer the coral sands quad, but that's only because I love how those colors look on me, not because the mocha latte quad is lacking in any way...so no lippies taken off for that. I really like avon's packaging for the true color quads. It's a heavy duty, sleek black compact with a large mirror and its easy to open. I would buy this quad again as it is great for a natural or neutral look and the eyeshadows are very good quality.

I LOVE this palette. It is so pigmented and I love the fact that it has 2 matte colors and 2 satin colors. Most palettes you get for this cheap have all satin. I use the lighter matte color as a transition color and the darker one as my outer v shade almost everyday no matter what color eyeshadow base I have on. My go to eyeshadow for everyday. I recommend this to everyone.

I bought this hoping I could use all the colors in a palette. no go on this! The shimmery copper brown I can use alone. I don't use the highlight color at all, the shade does not work for me. The lighter matte brown does not get used either I just can't make it work. The darker brown used over NYX pearl eyeshadow really deepens the color and makes a great evening look.

This is a great quad for an everyday make-up, perfect colors (I have dark brown eyes), you can use 1 or 2 colors but you can also create a beautiful make up using all 4 shades!

I use this palette everyday for a wearable neutral look that's very natural. Great shadows. I love the packaging and the fact that there is mirror in the quad. There is a sheer ivory shade that works great as a highlight color on my NC25/30 skin, a matte taupe shade, a shimmery coppery brown and a gorgeous matte dark brown that not only works great as a crease color but also for filling in brows. I mostly use the highlight and matte brown. I paid $8 plus tax for this quad. Great value considering how much product you get. I use them with the mark. Please Hold eyeshadow primer. Lasts hours. Definitely worth a try if you're looking for a versatile neutral quad that can create both evening and day looks.

This palette is amazing. For the price of it, you would think it might be mediocre, but no. It's absolutely great!

I've used it for my everyday makeup for about a year now, and it would be hard to get me to go back to anything else. You can use the colours for a subtle day look or a smokier night look. The colours are all highly pigmented, not chalky at all, and blend awesomely. This is a great, great buy... for the price, I'd recommend that every girl have one in her collection! xD

Soft subtle colors. Three of the colors are matte, and one is shimmery. It would be better if the darkest brown was darker, as all these shades are in the light to medium category but if you're after a subtle daytime look, this is very good. None of these shades go on too orangey, as I find with some browns. These are very neutral and wearable. The brush is a little small, but the packaging is very good considering how cheap this quad is when it goes on sale.

I love this quad. I use two of the matte colours for my eyebrows and the champange colour is a perfect highlight. The packaging looks like one of those Chanel quads (those have less product than the Avon ones, though)

I really love these colors! So amazing for the price that you pay! I love that it shows you how to apply these, and even if you don't use them that way (I don't) it still looks really nice. I don't even wear an eye primer and these stay on for a while. And the colors are nice and soft and natural looking.

I love this quad. First of all, the colors are really nice neutrals. I like having the option of shimmery, matte or satin. They're soft and blendable yet really pigmented. Not much fall out either. What I really love is the lasting power. I wore this yesterday in 95 degree weather and it lasted ALL DAY. No fading whatsover and I didn't even use a primer. I was so impressed, I had to write a review for it. I own a ton of e/s including some CHANEL quads and the UD Naked palette, yet I reach for this all the time. I just find the colors super wearable and long wearing. If I ever run out, I will definitely purchase again.

I never thought I'd be saying this, but I am COMPLETELY blown away by the quality of this quad! The buttery smooth texture of all 4 shades is as good if not better than my HE shadows. Even though it would seem like good neutrals are easy to find, unfortunately that has not been the case for me. Browns can be too cool and turn purple throughout the day, too red, etc. But these are absolutely perfect and a dream to work with and blend. I am not ashamed to say that I LOVE it!!

I love this! The colors are nicely pigmented, blend well, and go nicely with eachother. I like the mixture of finishes too. None of them are too shimmery and I also like that all the colors have names. I really love the shade 'iced coffee.' It's also inexpensive, especially when it's on sale.

I have bought this several times for just the creamy white (slightly pink) highlight shade. Honestly the most flattering brow highlight around. This palette is $24.99 NZ on sale which isn't the cheapest of the cheap but when you consider a mac shadow costs $45 its still a good buy - I also use the bronze shade but find the dark brown and light coffee shade a waste of time, I end up using other blacks and browns from other palettes with this.

I love this. The colors are gorgeous, perfect for everyday wear, very smooth, and easy to blend. Packaging is cute, a little hard to open, but nothing terrible. I'd definitly re-buy (:

I love the True Clor Eye Shadow Quad Series, by Avon. It's like "paint by numbers" for your eyes. There is a complete diagram of the eye, which shoes you where to apply each color. I use an Eyeshadow Primer, before applying, and get bold, long lasting color.
There are several different color palettes, with recommendations for which palettes are best suited for what eye colors.
Overall, I really like this product, and would recommend it to anyone.

This is a really nice quad. Four neutral wearable colours for everyday. It's not the most pigmented shadows that I've come across, but if you like shadows that are a bit more "understated" than I think you'll like this. There are three satin finishes and one shimmer finish in this quad. Great quality at a good value. Need to use a primer because they fade quickly without one. Shadows are soft and have very little fallout too.

I can't rave enough about this e/s quad. It is a go-to staple for me because it provides the perfect neutral eye for everyday wear.

From left to right, the quad contains a creamy highlight shade with the ever so slightest shimmer, a matte mid-toned brown shade which looks amazing in the crease (think MAC wedge with a bit more pigment and more blendability), a shimmery reddish brown shade (MAC Satin Taupe dupe?) and a dark matte chocolate brown color.

I wear the ST dupe on the lid with the Wedge dupe in the crease with the highlight color in the inner corners & as brow highlight. sometimes I will deepen the outer V with the dark shade or wear as liner.

The colors are extremely pigmented (with exception of the highlight shade which is a bit sheer) and blend beautifully.

I will repurchase this 100x over as long as Avon doesn't d/c it!

I highly recommend for anyone who is just starting their collection out, or for one who wants an easy go-to quad for everyday use!
