I like this product for it's ease of use and beautiful complementary colors. I have very fair skin, red hair, and brown eyes but chose the hazel eye collection because it was softer than the colors for brown eyes. I didn't purchase the matching eye liner or mascara, but I loooove this shadow. The pink and brown go beautifully together and don't look like drag makeup on my light skin. I would definitely recommend this, and thank you to the user who posted that gorgeous picture of her handy work!

I love this stuff! I think it adds just the right amount of pop to my eyes and the beige shade it one of my very very very faves!!! I loooovvvee it! They go on really easy and stay on pretty well ( but when the time comes to take off my make-up it doesn't stick to my face either :) )

These colors are pretty - nice, and I think could look good on just about any eye color. I like the bottom color the most (the silvery-taupey color). I use it on a regular basis.

The other colors are nice. This is a good trio that works well. The shades are a little more than a wash of color, but not as opaque as a lot of MAC formulas.

I usually love Almay shadows however, these trios (all of them) are dreadful. They are WAY too shiny for everyday use. I love the colors, but they need to be matte not shiny. I feel like the Tin Man in them.

I have green eyes, but this hazel trio works great for bringing them out too because i wasn't too thrilled with the green eyes trio. I've been using this almost every day before school, they're really good neutral colors and they are really soft and blend easily, only gripe is that they do not last all day without a primer

I have green eyes but decided on this as I wasn't really thrilled with using green eyeshadow which is included with the color for green eyes. I use with an eyeshadow brush which tends to be a lot nicer than a sponge applicator. This trio works very well at bringing out green eyes too!

Almay is one of my fav brands. I love this eye shadow and have used it for a while. I was never very good at picking shadow colors that look good with my hazel eyes. This trio is great because it gives instructions on how exactly to apply it and to what part of the eyelid. My only complaint is that the little applicator falls apart quickly. I want to try the the trio for bringing out hazel eyes next.

I have the one with the darker colors and the shimmery white, and I love them. I never use the bottom color but a little bit of the whiter looking color looks good on my lids as well as in the corner of my eyes paired with black eyeliner & mascara.

I actually have green eyes but I bought this because I liked the colors. These shadows are really easy to blend and come in some really nice colors. I bought the one for green eyes a couple years ago and I have always been impressed with the quality of these eyeshadows. The only con for me is that they're just a little too shimmery for my taste. I would still repurchase though.
Update: I changed my mind. I hardly ever wear these anymore because I really hate the shimmer. The colors are great, but Almay is obsessed with shimmer. Ugh. Will not buy again.

I've had this for about 2 years now, and have recently started using it again. It's got a nice velvet feeling with just the right amount of shimmer. I mostly use the browns in it and it stays put all day. Would definetly buy again

Okay. I have turquoise eyes, not blue, not green---turquoise. So I play around alot with many eye shadow colors. I bought these in hazel, green, blue and brown when I saw all of them at Big Lots for $2 each. UUGGHHH!!! Too much sparkle for daytime. Okay for evening I guess, if your into shimmer, but too much for me. The colors themselves would be gorgeous minus some of the shimmer. Almay used to be one of my fave brands, but they have gone waay down hill lately.

Very pleased with this little trio, it does indeed look good with hazel eyes. The pigment is good and it has great staying power, you don't have to worry about this stuff ending up all in your eye crease. I will definitely repurchase this one and keep it handbag ready.

I liked this eyeshadow. Pretty colors that you can mix and match that suit the eye color. Good staying power.

I just resurected this from my makeup stash and am glad I did. I use the darkest brownand it's gorgeous. Flecks of gold and its the perfect amount of shimmer (and normally I hate shimmer). I use it to rim the top lid and then the bottom, then put on mascara and my eyes look GREAT. I'd suggest it to anyone. So great, really.

What a fantastic surprise this has become! I purchased this on a whim, really - looking for a new summer shadow... just because! And while it doesn't make my eyes "pop," as the copy states, but it is really flattering.

There are 2 options for hazel eyes, and I'm speaking here about the champagne, brown and pink combo.

I will definitely repurchase when I run out.

I really like the colors in this kit - the pink is very pretty and soft. The colors are all great for when you're looking for a soft, natural daytime look.

I'm so happy someone finally did colors for hazel eyes, I can't tell you how many companies don't do anything other than blue, green, and brown. My eyes look so pretty with this- and very natural too.

I bought all of the Almay Hazel and Brown eye shadow products because I like them so much. Great quality that lasts and you can get the Almay stuff on sale at CVS or Walgreens quite often. I was surprised at how well the colors hold up and how easy they go on. I also like to support Almay because they, along with Mary Kay and Revlon, do not test on animals.

I'll admit, I really love a lot of Almay products. I have this palette in hazel and green. I prefer the hazel palette. The colors are much more natural for day wear and I can build them up for more dramatic evening wear as well. The green palette is okay, but I've never been a fan of green shadows. I have greenish-hazel eyes, and the hazel palette really brings the green out beautifully. I took one lippy simply because the pigment could be a little darker. This is not a big deal though, I just apply a teensy bit more. Will definately repurchase!
