i like the quantity you get, the color payoff is nice, I just wish the compact had a mirror and aplicator. other than that, I really like these, they blend nice and have nice price too.

Out of the four colors I like two of them.The darker ones.The lighter shades are just very dull and matte.The color could be alot more intense.I was disappointed.

I received this as a generous RAOK. I have rather dark and oily lids and must use a primer. The shades are very natural, moderately pigmented and layerable, and shimmery in a nice way that allows one to wear these shadows comfortably in the daytime. I use a light shade all over with a darker one in the crease and they blend easily. A pop of dark eyeliner on top, mascara and you get an elegant look for day or night!

I'm a mark rep so I figured I should own some mark eyeshadows, so I bought this quad and I love it! The shadows are very pigmented, which honestly I was not expecting. They are very smooth and blend well. I bought one for myself and one for a gift. If you can find one, buy it!

This was the first time I had ever tried anything from the mark line other than a set of lotions I got as a gift. I was really impressed. I tried these at a friends and I was impressed with how easily they blended and went on. I imediately went home and bought these along with a bunch of other products on mark.com. They just came yesterday. They are right now on sale for 6 dollars. For quality eyeshadow that was just fantastic!!!! I bought a few custom ones about 5 different brushes. A cover up, some lotion, mascara, lip gloss, liquid eyeliner, and 3 hair care products. Eveything I have tried so far is fantastic!!! I <3 mark.!!!! I would definitely buy these again.

All four colors in this palette are great, and there are several combinations that work depending on how much or how little you want to wear. I won't describe the colors, as other reviewers have taken care of that for me, but I love these shadows for their versatility and wear. I didn't purchase a back-up because I have so many shadows that it'll take forever to need one, but I would repurchase if I could.
Edit: Maybe my coloring has changed (fading of summer tan, perhaps), but the purple color looks a bit too pink on me, making me look a little sickly. The highlighter shade doesn't seem to show up well anymore. Bumping this down a bit, as only two of the colors still work.

Good eyeshadows with color payoff--which most Avon shadows don't have. But I do want a mirror too or an applicator-- and the colors don't go on as smoothly as I'd like. Not sure what to do with the purple or copper one, though they are pretty.

I just love this eyeshadow quad! The colours are really well suited to my NC30-35 (warm yellow-toned) skin, and the shadows themselves are reasonably well-pigmented and smooth. The four eyeshadows are all a bit shimmery: a plummy brown, a warm champagne, a coppery gold, and a slightly pinked plum. The names are supposed to be Rebel, Swinger, Sophisticate, and Hipster, but they're not labeled so I can't guess which is which. None of them are sold separately, anyway, as far as I know.

It would be nicer if the palette had a mirror, but it's nevertheless a pretty design with a generous amount of product. Honestly, I use mark and Stila shadows the most...my MAC eyeshadows just sit in the back, unused. :O

I love the colors! They go on vibrantly and last all day if applied over a base, like a light sweep of your tint or foundation.

I'm the type of person who wont wear eye shadow that doesn't match my clothing... so I don't wear the cranberry or orange colors that often. But... then I bought a shirt that matches the entire quad! It's a flannel shirt from old navy, perfect fall colors for a perfect fall outfit!

i first got this because im in love with the bohista perfume so i had to buy all the products named after it.
the eyeshadows are really pretty, not my very very favorite but theyr deffinitely a good staple product for someone who either doesnt have a lot of makeup or a lot of expierence with it. the colors all work great together so there is no worrying about the shadow colors clashing and they are simple colors that are easy to apply even for the most innocent beginners. looks great.

This was my first purchase from Mark products, and I love it! I was suprised how big the compact was, so you get quite a bit of each shadow. No brush comes with it though which sucks. Other than that, the colors are beautiful! Rich pigments, and shimmery colors. They all compliment each other to create different eye looks.

I've been using this on a daily basis since I got it in December. I can't wear the purpley-red color, but the other three are amazing! My favorite is the amber-gold. Great deal too!

Gorgeous colors!!! However, the colors are not super pigmented and don't go on as smooth as I like. That is expected though for cheap eyeshadow. Packaging would have been better if it had a mirror and come with applicators.

Mark's Bohista Eyeshadow Quad is basically a combination of four neutral colors, in honor of their "Bohista" collection, which offers a range of products packaged in exotic/mediterranean arabic like containers. The package for these shadows is very pretty: a four pan square compact, tan on the bottom and caramel brown on top with a pretty light blue flower design on top. It offers four neutral shades: Exotic (a deep chocolate brown with golden flecks), Nomadic (a soft sparkly champagne beige), Eclectic (amber gold with gold flecks) and Chic (a sparkly aubergine plum). You can make endless combinations with these four shadows, from casual and natural to mysterious and "exotic". The consistency of the shades is very good, the colors will last an entire day, depending on the type of activity you are doing. However I had to take lippies off for lack of an applicator and mirror which limits travel capabilities. If you have time and are willing to experiment with different looks, these are pretty colors at an affordable price.

The colors are beautiful and easy to wear. The shadow glides on smoothly and is very long wearing.

great autumn (LE) palette from mark. the colors are really complimentary to a variety of skintones. please note that (at least in my experience) these shadows are a bit softer than the regular mark shadows. my favorite is definately the ivory-gold shade, it's so pretty and shimmery, a bit sheer, but great for an all over wash of color or for hilighting your browbone. i also adore the amber shade, it's very pretty to use as an accent shade. nice neutrals, get this one from your mark rep when it comes up in the outlet soon!

This is a beautiful quad and although the colors appear very warm-toned, they surprisingly work on many different skin tones. I do wish there was a mirror in the compact, but the packaging is still very sturdy and practical while still being pretty. The four colors in this quad are great for creating multiple "looks" and $9 is a steal since i-marks are $4 a piece and the Suedeshadow quad includes 4 full-sized pans - that would equal $16!

LOVE this quad, the colors really compliment eachother.
Can be used for a dramatic done up look, or for a subdued everyday look.
Especially great for brown eyed beauties. Looks shimmery, less matte, but doesnt go on too shimmery
Great pigmentation, extremely easy to blend. Great quad for the price

This is a great e/s quad! The shadows are excellent quality. Heavily pigmented but extremely blendable and easy to work with. These colors really bring out the green in my hazel eyes, and I love to pair these shadows with MAC Graphic Brown fluidline or BB Chocolate Shimmer gel liner. Good staying power (though I *always* use UDPP and I think that's the secret to *anything* staying put), cute packaging and the price is right! Grab this while you can, it's so worth it.
