Cute mirrored compact containing surprisingly high-quality glosses -- all of these are fairly long-lasting for this type of product. You get a shimmery pale lavendar, shimmery pale pink, YLBB nude rose, and deeper shimmery plum. These are fun to mix together to create other colors; I also like to wear them over lip liner (usually Stila No. 16) to increase the color options even more and make them last a lot longer. The first two (top two) colors aren't that great to wear alone, but are good to mix with the others or to use as a highlighter in the center of the bottom lip. The latter two colors (the bottom two) are what really make this quad worth the price IMO. The nudish rose is perfect for daytime, and the shimmery darker plum is great for going out at night. As many have already pointed out, the lip brush is basically useless so I have a tendency to throw it back in its slot in frustration and just put these on with my fingers. Great quad otherwise, but the shades aren't unique enough that I would repurchase it. I might get a different one though.

I really like the colors of the product, but the consistency is a little sticky. The brush that comes with the compact is pretty weak considering how thick the gloss is. You have to dip the brush into the gloss too many times to get enough gloss to cover your lips. The compact is cute, but since it is metal, I am afraid to scratch it. It is also a little big for my tiny purses.

Cute compact, and the colors are very pretty and just sheer enough. But it's still a little too sticky for me and that compact brush is no good.

I just got this and I love it! The consistency of these is really nice, thick but not 'gloopy'. They are not sticky, but smooth and glossy. They are well pigmented, which is nice as you can get a few looks with even one lipliner (my fav with this palette is Chanel Nude!) Perfect for all day wear and into the evening. It was really expensive, but I don't regret purchasing it. I would definitely buy it again or another like it.

Quad no.1 is very pretty and flattering. Great staying power. You can layer these glosses, or wear each one alone. Very fun. And the packaging is so cute. Only bad thing : the price. :(

I just got this palette and the Stila lipliner #8. These glosses were so pretty that I had to get them. I'm not a fan of lipglosses, but these don't feel heavy or goopy and I'm amazed at how long they stay on. They stay put through this morning's coffee and muffin. I was impressed. They can be mixed or worn alone. The lip brush is worthless, but the glosses are great. They're quite expensive (I paid $32.50@ Sephora), but you get four great colors and the staying power makes it worth the price.**UPDATE** I had to return these cause they made my lips itchy and I broke out in a rash around my lips. Too bad, because I really like them. Oh well

Believe it or not, I got this free as a mistake in one of my orders! It was not on my order invoice, but it was in my box!
Of course I kept it...:-)
The colors are sheer and pinky-peachy-mauve. The brush is useless, so I just use my fingers. In the place of the brush I squirted some other Stila lip gloss samples (pink shine and taupe shine) into the space,and it's quite convenient!

The colours in the palette are really pretty- shades of pink, rose and mauve. But they seem mostly undetectable when applied- quite sheer and subtle. The brush provided is totally useless- very flimsy. And I'd prefer it if the lipglosses were scented, because they taste quite synthetic to me.

Love these Quads!!! Compact to slip in your back pocket! The colors are great to mix and match and create your own shade! I love these! For extra staying power, use over your favorite lipsticks! This is a very versatile product! My fav is Quad #3.

Very cute compact and colors, but they go on too sheer and barely show up on me. Extremely overpriced too.

I love this quad of pink and mauve-y shades. A nice blend of creamy and shimmery glosses. The case is small and portable, though I find the lipbrush a bit useless. This isn't the kind of thing I'll likely replace when it's gone, but all in all, I really like the colors and packaging.

I'm normally more into brighter and pinker lipglosses, but this paletteis making start leaning towards the more muted side of things. The glosses range from mauve to a light shell pink, and 3 are shimmery and 1 is matte. They go on creamy and glossy and the lipbrush is small but works.

This is a really nice compact with a quad of four lipglosses in neutral shades. One is a sheer opal pink, a medium rose shade, and a sheer pink brown, a sheer shell pink. This comes with a tiny brush. Its very expensive though that is the only drawback to this product. Otherwise its a fantastic little compact to mix and match and play around with.
