Love this, it may not be good for just plain brown eyes. The pigmentation of the shadows are really good. Even better with a primer. I have brown eyes and I also have blue hair so the colors are great for me because it matches my hair. I like to use the white on the inner corners, the lighter blue as a outer lid shade and crease, and the dark blue for liner or outer corner.

I bought this product at Walgreens because the bright blue colors really stood out to me. They are really high quality and beautiful. I'm not really into blue shadows on my brown eyes but these are so gorgeous. I would not repurchase because it doesn't really match my eyes but I use it on my friends with blue eyes and it looks great. The case broke right after I got it though and so I have to keep it closed with a hair band. Other than that this is a good product for the price.

I love this so much!
the colours are beautiful and very pigmented, not really for everyday, but for a night out its great.
if you use a primer, it will stay, you will not have a problem of it fading or creasing.

I love this eyeshadow quad! It comes with four colors: pearly white. black, light aquamarine, and navy blue. The applicator brush is not very good. These shadows are very pigmented and have a good staying power (at least 6-8 hours). I will be repurchasing this product.

The colors in this palette are beautiful and stunning. First we have a white shimmer with a frosty pearl finish. Second is an aqua blue with some faint tints of green ( looks kind of duo chrome but it's not). Third is a deep royal blue with black Undertones. And last is a black with glitter which is probably the most disappointing because it shows up more gray with glitter, not the best pigmentation. The Palette is all shimmer. A beautiful quad with disappointing results. I absolutely agree with other reviews stating the creasing and fading. I also have tried different bases, color bases, primers and using with other eyeshadows not in this palette. The max theses eyeshadows last on me without fading and or creasing is an hour. The fallout is kinda bad I would say moderate. If you really wanted a blue eyeshadow palette similar to this one but better quality I suggest the Wet N Wild in "Blue had me at hello". You get double the eyeshadows for half the price and much better quality.

I really like this pallet. I don't wear colors this dramatic every day, but I really couldn't resist getting this set when I saw it at Target. All four shades are highly pigmented and the white, teal, and blue are very creamy. I find the black to be a bit harder to apply and doesn't have nearly as much color payoff as the other three but that's not much of a deal breaker for me as I have another black eyeshadow I prefer to use anyway, and the quality of the other three makes it up for me.

I really wanted this product to work. I've tried everything. I've used Urban Decay Primer potion alone as a based. I've tried using that WITH NYX eyeshadow base on top... And still, this product will not stay!! The pigmentation looks good for about .02 seconds after application... but before I can even finish applying the rest of the color to my eye, the color starts fading!! What is this? Is my eye eating this product off my lid or what? I find this very perplexing. Every quad from this line does the same thing. So, I don't know. If you can get the color to actually stay on, they're gorgeous. But for me, now matter how much or little or what I use as a base, the stuff doesn't stay on me. I noticed creasing today after a mere hour or two. Quite sad.

I am absolutely in love with this eyeshadow. The colors are amazing, especially the teal. I like to apply the teal to my entire lid, then add the midnight blue in a V Shape. I then use the black to line my eyes, and use the white in the corner and I really like the way it looks. I use it practically everyday. This is currently my favorite eyeshadow.

Love, love, love this eyeshadow palette! Maybelline is surely becoming my "go to" eye shadow manufacturer! These colors are highly pigmented, very shimmery, easy to apply and very versatile. You can create so many different looks for a daytime or evening look. I love the shimmery ivory color that I love to use to highlight my browbone, and the aqua color to use all over my lids. The navy or black I sometimes use on my crease or outer-v for a more dramatic, nighttime look. All in all, I'm very impressed and a huge fan!

I definitely love the colors, it doesn't take to long for them to show up on me. The only downfall is the fallout, it can look like a speckled mess on my cheeks. Definitely apply with brushes! I tried applying with the applicator that came with the palette and it was too small to allow any sort of control with the application process.

I LOVE THIS QUAD! It is so gorgeous. If you're not really careful, it can be a bit messy. It's very high pigmented but you may have to re-touch one time while wearing this quad. The colors blend so beautiful together. It works well it you put the shadow on correctly. Wouldn't recommend this for a beginner. Going to get another one in a different color.

I abselotuely LOVE LOVE LOVE this quad! The white is perfect; not too shimmery and not dull either. As for the other 3 colours, they are beautiful complements and apply nicely. This is my go to quad for an easy and quick eyeshadow look. The only problem I have with it is that sometimes the glitter transfers down my face ): But, it can be easily fixed with some makeup remover!

Very pretty colors in this quad. the white is great on the lower lash line just dont over do it
the black has great staying power as a top lash liner (prefer over a liquid liner)- it applies so nicely with a liner brush
UPDATE still using this and a lot left even when using daily.good value for your money

I absolutely love these eyeshadow quads!
I am so glad that this comes with a light base color, because the Sapphire Siren blue and green are a little too bright for my fair complexion but look killer when mixed with the white and after applying the black right above my lash line. My boyfriend adores the shimmery hues.

OMG!! This is a great eyeshadow! I have almost all of these in all the colors, and I love them all! The only complaint I have is that the color sometimes ends up on your face after you apply. I have to use a big brush to wipe off my face after I apply this, but other than that, they are awesome!!

When the Eyestudio quads first came out, this was the one quad that really caught my eye. The ad for it was absolutely beautiful, the colors were vivid and alluring. This actual product did not live up to my expectation. The pigmentation was so-so. I was not too crazy about this quad. Needless to say it really disappointed me. Unless I use a blue base using this quad is a lost cause for me. Not a repurchase for me.

As a Maybelline addict I was so excited when i saw these awesome colors! They go great with my green eyes and I'm sure it would look amazing on blue eyes. It had the perfect amout of sparkle and it definately turns heads. I had one major problem though. The white eyeshadow exploded all over the place and now its hard to use. I'd definately buy it again, but I'd advise everyone to handle with care!!

I've never been a huge fan of Maybellline eyeshadows, but I LOVE the ones in this collection, especially this particular quad. These are the best quality eyeshadows I've ever bought in the drugstore! (and I've bought shadows from most of the DS brands out there) These shadows are smooth and almost creamy to apply. They are incredibly pigmented and easy to blend. The packaging is nothing special, but there's nothing wrong with in IMO. There are four colors in this quad (duh, lol). The first is a shimmery white color. It is a bit more chunky than the other colors and very shimmery. It's too intense for a brow highlight with the other colors, so if I use it at all, I use it on the inner corner. The next two are my favorites and make the quad well worth my money. There is a beautiful shimmery peacock teal and a beautiful sapphire blue. They are both incredible quality and pigmentation and they are two of the most gorgeous shades of eyeshadow I own. The last color is a black with small silver glitter. I don't really want the glitter on my eyes, but as long as I tap off my brush it doesn't show up too much. The black is actually pretty good. I love these quads and definitely recommend them and plan to repurchase if I run out.

I bought this product because I thought the colors are gorgeous. Simply.... THIS PRODUCT IS AWFUL! When I swatched it on my hand it look amazing, but when I applied it to my eyes the shimmer that the eyeshadow had disappeared! the white eyeshadow was chalky and glittery, the blue and green color showed up( barely) but the metallic shine disappeared and lastly the black... HUGE disappointment ...... Maybelline once again, fails in my book.
